  • Rapid Assessment – Awareness and Attitudes to Domestic Violence and Child Abuse in Guyana
    Rapid Assessment – Awareness and Attitudes to Domestic Violence and Child Abuse in Guyana Community/Police Outreach of the Domestic Violence Prevention Initiative funded through the UNIFEM Trust Fund for Violence Against Women Help & Shelter, June 2005 Executive Summary Help & Shelter conducted a rapid assessment of attitudes and knowledge about domestic violence and child abuse to inform its public education and advocacy strategy. The methodology involved the use of face to face and telephone interviews. The following groups were consulted:- i) Individuals ii) Organisations iii) Police stations iv) Magistrate’s Courts The results of this survey indicate that there is growing public knowledge about the dynamics of domestic violence and child abuse, but still limited knowledge of the Domestic Violence Act (DVA) and its implementation. Most respondents believed that domestic violence is on the increase, and felt that the police have a greater role to play in alleviating domestic violence and child abuse. Despite the wider awareness in different regions around Guyana about the dynamics of domestic violence, it appears that the knowledge has yet to be transformed into effective action e.g. development of counseling services, advocacy for implementation of the DVA and the punishment/rehabilitation of perpetrators. The survey did not seek out survivors of domestic violence or child abuse. In January 1999, Help & Shelter in collaboration with Red Thread conducted a survey of police stations and courts to determine the level of awareness of the DVA. The scope of that survey was slightly different from the current survey, but comparisons between some of the results of the two surveys have been made.

    Between a Promise and a Trench: Citizenship, Vulnerability, and Climate Change in Guyana Sarah E. Vaughn Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Sarah E. Vaughn All rights reserved ABSTRACT Between a Promise and a Trench: Citizenship, Vulnerability, and Climate Change in Guyana Sarah E. Vaughn Between a Promise and a Trench examines how science is constituted as a strategic practice and site through which citizens make claims about racial democracy in Guyana. It shows how government policymaking around climate adaptation--which drew upon the recommendations of outside actors, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the United Nations (UN), and various NGOs and international scientific networks-- profoundly disrupted the country's delicate racial-ethnic balance. A contribution to the burgeoning anthropology on the social and political impact of climate change, the dissertation also speaks to current debates over race and citizenship, the complex relationship between expertise and democracy, and the competing post-colonial claims of Indo-, Afro-, and Amerindian Guyanese to land and self-determination. The dissertation is based on seventeen months of fieldwork and archival research conducted between, 2009-11 in coastal Guyana. It brings together three conflicting perspectives: of engineers, who drew upon datasets and models about flooding and construction of canals around IPCC and UN climate data; the state officials, who sought to reduce vulnerability to flood hazards through land evictions; and of Indo-, Afro-, and Amerindian Guyanese farmers and squatters who were evicted as a result of post-2005 engineering projects.
