Episode Details

The Guyana Development Bank is launching in Port Mourant with big plans to fuel small business growth—farmers and entrepreneurs must team up in clusters to access up to $3 million in interest-free, collateral-free loans for projects like hatcheries and tunnel houses. A government delegation, including top ministers, is heading to Region Six in two weeks to kick off the bank and help form these community-driven consortia. Beyond finance, the government’s targeting 100% housing coverage by 2026, offering foundation support and social housing for vulnerable groups. Meanwhile, Port Mourant is part of the ‘Model Village’ Initiative, bringing road upgrades, better drainage, street lighting, market improvements, and new play areas—expanding to 23 villages across Region Six to transform living conditions and empower communities through economic and infrastructural change.
