  • Green State Development Strategy: Vision 2040
    Diversified, Resilient, Low-carbon, People-centred VOLUME I POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS, FINANCIAL MECHANISM & IMPLEMENTATION An inclusive and prosperous Guyana that provides a good quality of life for all its citizens “ based on sound education and social protection, low-carbon resilient development, new economic opportunities, justice, and political empowerment. ” Executive Summary Background The Green State Development Strategy: Vision 2040 is Guyana’s twenty-year, national development policy that reflects the guiding vision and principles of the ‘green agenda’: “An inclusive and prosperous Guyana that provides a good quality of life for all its citizens based on sound education and social protection, low-carbon and resilient development, providing new economic opportunities, justice and political empowerment.” The central objective is development that provides a better quality of life for all Guyanese derived from the country’s natural wealth – its diversity of people and abundant natural resources (land, water, forests, mineral and aggregates, biodiversity). The vision of the ‘green agenda’ is centred on principles of a green economy defined by sustainable, low-carbon and resilient development that uses its resources efficiently, and sustained over generations. The development philosophy emphasises the importance of a more cohesive society based on principles of equity and tolerance between ethnic groups – recognising that diversity of culture and heritage is the underlying strength of the country’s human capital. Development objectives therefore seek to improve the health, education and overall well-being of Guyanese citizens, to lift people out of poverty through an economy that generates decent jobs and that provides opportunities for sustaining livelihoods over the long term. For decades, geopolitical events, natural disasters and global commodity price swings have weighed upon Guyana’s development.

  • Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana
    NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana A Civil Society Document - AN OVERVIEW - I GUYANA - BASIC INFORMATION • Guyana, with an area of 83,000 square miles or 215,000 square kilometres, is located on the northern coast of South America, and is the only English-speaking country on that continent. It is bounded on the north by the Atlantic Ocean, on the east by Surinam, on the south and south-west by Brazil, and on the west and north-west by Venezuela. • Guyana is physically divided into four types of landforms: (i) a flat coastal, clayey belt which is about 4.5 feet below sea level, and in which most of its agricultural activity occurs; (ii) a sand belt, to the south of the coastal belt, which includes the Intermediate Savannas; (iii) an undulating, central peneplain which comprises more than half of the country’s area, and in which are located lush, almost pristine, tropical forests, and extensive mineral deposits. This landform stretches from the sand belt to the country’s southern boundary and encompasses, also, the Rupununi Savannas which border Brazil; and (iv) the highlands which are to be found in the midwestern area. This portion of the Guiana Highlands includes the Pakaraima mountain range. • Guyana has a plentitude of natural resources: fertile agricultural lands on the coastal plain and in the riverain areas; vast areas of tropical hardwood forests of various ecosystems and with a multitude of plant and animal species; abundant fish and shrimping grounds, both in its numerous rivers and in the Atlantic Ocean to its north; and a wide variety of minerals, including gold, diamonds, a range of semi-precious stones, bauxite and manganese.

  • Guyana) − CHAPTER 8
    National Development Strategy (Guyana) − CHAPTER 8 CHAPTER 8 TRANSPORT 8.I BASIC FEATURES OF THE SECTOR 8.I.1ROADS 8.I.1.1The Network 8.I.1.1.1The main coastal roads are, from west to east, the Essequibo Coast Road, the Parika−Vreed−en−Hoop Road, the East Coast Demerara and West Coast Berbice Roads, and the Corentyne Highway from New Amsterdam to Moleson Creek. All these roads are paved. 8.I.1.1.2South of Georgetown the primary road is the East Bank Demerara Road, a two−lane road which runs from Georgetown to Timehri, where the Cheddi Jagan International Airport − Timehri (CJIAT) is located. In the period 1966 − 68, Soesdyke, located on the East Bank Demerara Road, was connected to Mackenzie by a modern two lane highway, now called the Soesdyke − Linden Highway. This road was constructed as a section of a highway connecting Georgetown with Lethem. In 1968 a bridge was built across the Demerara River at Linden, and in 1974 it was decided that the route to Lethem would cross the Demerara River at Linden and go south, along the watershed of the Demerara and Essequibo Rivers, through Mabura, to Kurupukari. From Kurupukari it would run parallel to the old cattle trail to Annai, and from Annai it would follow an already existing road to Lethem. 8.I.1.1.3In the early 1970s a two−lane road with modern geometry and surfaced with laterite was built between Linden and Rockstone. This road was later connected to Mabura and Kurupukari. In 1990−91 a two−lane laterite road was constructed between Kurupukari and Annai and a vehicle ferry installed at Kurupukari.

  • National Development Strategy (2001-2010)
    NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY (2001-2010) A POLICY FRAMEWORK ERADICATING POVERTY AND UNIFYING GUYANA A CIVIL SOCIETY DOCUMENT ANNEX 8 TRANSPORT Date of Publication: November 2000 Date finalised by Sectoral Committee: May 1999 Equivalent Chapter in Core Document: Used as Background Material for Chapter 4 The Annexes to the National Development Strategy: An Explanatory Note In June 2000, the National Development Strategy (NDS) of Guyana was formally presented to the President of Guyana and the Leader of the Opposition in the form of a core document, a 348 page distillation of the main elements of the analysis of the Guyana situation and the resulting strategy for action drawn from material prepared by 24 sectoral committees of the National Development Strategy Committee (NDSC). While Chapter 1 of the core document provides an outline of the origins of the NDS and the methodology of its preparation, the purpose of the present note is to explain the Annexes to the core document. The Annexes are edited versions of the original drafts that the sectoral committees prepared, using a format that facilitated systematic thinking, though at the cost of some repetition. They are therefore longer than the corresponding Chapters of the core document, and also differ from them in other ways: 1. While the Annexes were individually edited in terms of their content, in the core document, disagreements or dissonances between Chapters were removed; for example, if the Chapter on the Private Sector proposed a strategy for Education that was in contradiction with a strategy proposed in the Chapter on Education, the two were rationalised.

  • Guyana National Land Use Plan
    Guyana National Land Use Plan June 2013 Guyana Lands and Surveys Commission Government of Guyana Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment Guyana National Land Use Plan Guyana Lands and Surveys Commission With assistance from Development of Land Use Planning Project Supported by European Union Government of Guyana National Land Use Plan June 2013 PREFACE This is the report on the development of the National Land Use Plan for Guyana. The report covers: • The process by which the plan was developed • The plan itself, including full explanations of the plan content It is accompanied by a separate map folder, which contains larger format maps, where the larger format helps in viewing and use. A separate Summary document is also available. This National Land Use Plan was developed by the Guyana Lands and Surveys Commission (GL&SC), Land Use Planning Section, with support from the Development of Land Use Planning Project (DLUPP) and financial support from the European Union. As such, this report is a substantive and contracted output from the DLUPP. As described in this document, the Plan, as presented, is not a definitive or prescriptive document. Rather, it provides support to decision making, through looking at development options and constraints throughout the country. The intent is that it should be incorporated into the lease decision process, with the objective of encouraging decisions which optimise the use of Guyana’s resources for the benefit of its people. The Plan itself does not make any such decisions. Planning is a continuous process. As such it is never final. Old information is corrected, new information becomes available, circumstances change, government policies change, and so forth; all these require regular updating of the plan.
