United Nations Guyana 227d ago

In 2024, through partnership with Government and national partners, the UN in Guyana supports acceleration of SDG progress through inclusive, rights-based support for social sectors and key populations, including women, youth, persons with disabilities, Indigenous peoples, LGBTIQ+ persons, persons living with HIV/AIDS, and Venezuelan migrants. Under the strategic guidance of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs and Governance, and other key ministries, our collective efforts have yielded significant advancements in shared prosperity, well-being, environmental resilience, and justice through targeted initiatives. Key achievements include our contributions to strengthening agri-food systems and rural livelihoods, expanding digital inclusion, enhancing policy frameworks, and improving equitable access to education, health, and social services. Alongside these efforts, we helped to bolster disaster preparedness, promote climate-smart agriculture and biodiversity conservation, strengthen governance and justice systems, enhance GBV response, and advance HIV response and inclusivity, collectively building foundations for a more resilient, inclusive, safer, fairer, and more equitable Guyana.
