The Ministry of Amerindian Affairs on Thursday wrapped up a two-day leadership workshop for Toshaos and Treasurers of indigenous villages along the coast.
The workshop, titled “Accountability for Good Governance”, saw leaders from regions 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 10 being trained in various aspects of management and accountability of their respective communities.
The Ministry said that leadership training for toshaos and councillors is part of its objective for delivering positive outcomes for Amerindian communities in Guyana. It noted that post-Village Council Elections, there is a continuous need for training for Village Councils as it is extremely important for community development.
