In observance of the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day on Monday last, the Documentation Centre at the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security has mounted an exhibition of portraits celebrating the achievements of several women in the country.
The exhibition is an annual feature but Director of the Centre Yvonne Stephenson explained that this year the focus was on women who embody the theme of the global observances, which spoke of equal access to training and science and technology.
The exhibition honoured Guyanese women in various fields including medicine, law, politics, activism, business and education. “We salute these women,” Stephenson said.
