AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

MV Barima Disaster & Mental Health: Guyana’s ferry tragedy response is drawing fresh scrutiny as clinicians warn that survivors and bereaved families need sustained psychosocial care, not short-term support, with calls for privacy-focused counselling and long-term crisis planning. Accountability in Court: Police have filed 72 murder charges against the MV Barima captain and two senior crew/officials, with defendants remanded as the public waits for the Commission of Inquiry. Public Health Systems (One Health): The Ministry of Health signed a US$1.78M Service Delivery Agreement with PAHO/WHO to strengthen labs, disease surveillance, emergency response, workforce training, and multisector coordination under the Guyana One Health Project. Maternal Support: Rotary Club of Garden City donated 25 maternity hampers to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation to support mothers and newborns. Workplace Safety: The Labour Ministry continued its “Putting Safety First” campaign with construction safety seminars aimed at building a stronger safety culture. Poverty Data Transparency: Bloomberg reports Guyana is withholding key poverty statistics despite visible economic activity, raising concerns about transparency. Road Safety: A 28-year-old taxi driver died in a crash on the Railway Embankment Road after colliding with a truck. Safety & Transport Reform: Clement Rohee is urging a sweeping overhaul of river and ocean transport after the MV Barima disaster, arguing oversight has lagged behind growth.
