Guyana's Model Village Initiative is linking community infrastructure with local economic opportunity.

The programme targets 23 communities across Regions Two to Six. Government says Guyana Development Bank representatives are expected to return after community consultations to explain financing opportunities and how residents may benefit.

The initiative is organised around four pillars: connectivity, community, commerce and care. In Supenaam, residents have already identified poultry clusters as one potential way small producers could work together and scale with access to financing.

The financing is prospective: the source does not yet report loan amounts, approved borrowers or jobs created.

Guyana's Ministry of Housing says it is stepping up land acquisition and preparation to address the house-lot backlog.

Upcoming allocation exercises were expected in Regions Two, Three and Four, while allocations had already been conducted in Regions Five, Six and Ten.

The programme remains ongoing, with additional land acquisition and housing development planned.

Preparing before a climate risk becomes severe is a key part of protecting agriculture.

Guyana’s Ministry of Agriculture is urging farmers to prepare for potential El Niño conditions while government agencies monitor water systems and strengthen preparedness.

The August 31 DPI report highlights drainage and irrigation infrastructure—including canals, pumps, sluices and water-storage systems—as part of the response. The NDIA is also monitoring conservancies and irrigation systems and identifying areas vulnerable to water shortages.

The focus: manage water carefully, support farmers and protect agricultural production and food security.
