This initiative by the Government of Guyana, marks the second round of transfer payments under governmental auspices, according to the Department of Public Information (DPI).
In a conversation with DPI, Dr. Ruackel Easton, representing the Association of People of African Descent, expressed gratitude for the allocation, highlighting plans to utilize the funds for a comprehensive health outreach programme targeting diverse demographics. Dr. Easton affirmed, “The funds will be allocated towards a health outreach programme, reaching as many demographics as possible. Additionally, we have several other projects lined up, and with the support of the Government, we can now realize these initiatives.”
