THE Steering Committee for the Amerindian Act 2006 Revision, comprising representatives of the National Toshaos Council (NTC), Amerindian Peoples Association, the Amerindian Action Movement of Guyana, the Guyanese Organization of Indigenous Peoples and the Amerindian Development Foundation has completed training of facilitators to enable a smooth process in making informed recommendations for the Amerindian Act 2006 revision that is currently taking place.
The last of a four-part training workshop concluded on June 22 in Georgetown with a plan to ensure that as many as possible Indigenous Villages and communities, especially those who operate as District Councils, are prepared to make recommendations in a systematic manner, a statement on the process indicated.
“The facilitators will assist the village councils and other residents to better understand the current act as it relates to their concerns and to document their recommendations for revision. These recommendations are expected to be submitted in written form to the Ministry of Indigenous Peoples Affairs which has officially commenced consultations.”
The Moruca Sub-Region District Council will be meeting in the host village of Santa Rosa, Moruca, Region 1, from June 30 to July 2, 2018. The Upper Mazaruni District Council and the North Pakaraimas District Council are also expected to meet in early July.
The communities of Region 2 are slated to have their revision meetings in the first week of July.
