The National Water Purification Project – FLOW – is set to provide clean, purified water to 155 secondary schools, technical and vocational institutions, and special needs schools across all 11 education districts.
In a recent courtesy call to Minister of Education Sonia Parag, representatives from Recover Guyana and the Greater Guyana Initiative (GGI) provided a project brief on the rollout of this transformative initiative.
The project is designed to enhance student welfare while promoting long-term environmental sustainability within the school system. Based on the established workflow, Regions Three and Six are the first regions to benefit; these systems will be operationalised and commissioned shortly.
The project overview and its transformative benefits were presented by Dr Dave Lalltoo, President of Recover Guyana and project lead for FLOW.
Also in attendance from the partner organisations were Ms Lorna Carlson, Socioeconomic Manager of ExxonMobil Guyana Ltd; Ms Alicia Bess-Anderson, GGI Project Lead; and members of the Recover Guyana and GGI project teams.
Present from the Ministry were Mr Saddam Hussain, Chief Education Officer, and Mr Sherwyn Blackman, Assistant Chief Education Officer – Secondary.
This collaborative effort between the Ministry of Education and its private sector partners highlights a shared commitment to fostering a healthy learning environment and supporting the nation’s youth through sustainable infrastructure.
