Episode Details

Guyana’s economy is exploding—growing over 19% last year—driven by energy and construction, but it’s running out of local workers. With many Guyanese abroad, the country is turning to migration as a solution. IOM Director General Amy Pope visited to help shape policies that bring in regional talent, upskill locals, and protect rights.

Pope met with ministers, migrants, and IOM staff to ensure policies reflect real needs, while collaborating with CARICOM to build a regional framework tackling climate, population, and economic challenges.
