| A Partnership for National Unity plus Alliance For Change (APNU+AFC) has promised to develop Guyana’s hinterland region and its inhabitants through agricultural avenues in its recently released manifesto.The manifesto, which was released Thursday last at the Stabroek Market, outlined ways in which the party will be tackling the “depressed” state of those Administrative Regions considered to be part of the Hinterland. Of these were Regions One, Seven, Eight, Nine and Ten, which the manifesto described as having “rich natural resources and human capital”.In pointing out the vast area of land that the Regions occupy, that being over 76 percent of Guyana’s landmass, the APNU+AFC proposed their vision for the Hinterland region to be that of food security.“A food security policy for the hinterland will also result in savings in transportation costs for staples in some hinterland households,NFL Jerseys Wholesale, and broaden the resident skills base,” read the document.Moreover the manifesto highlighted that the citizens of those regions have traditionally met their food demands through subsistence agriculture, hunting and fishing.However, the document said that with the upsurge in mining and logging close to Indigenous communities, these activities have “severely compromised” the traditional food sources of the districts.Under an APNU+AFC administration the document outlined that the party will work with stakeholders for a Hinterland policy; promote environmentally sensitive and diversified food production; have the hinterland cattle-rearing industry take advantage of the international demand for ‘organic’ beef, and focus programmes on the production of regional food needs.Additionally, the document included measures to enhance the capacity of hinterland communities through specified fund, the acquisition of appropriate technology and create arrangements for producers for marketing.Moreover, the Party’s manifesto said that, if elected, the APNU+AFC will support an “environmentally and economically sound development strategy” that will seek to benefit Indigenous inhabitants and other local communities. Furthermore, the manifesto outlined that the party will support the economic empowerment of those living in the Hinterland regions, through requisite capital resources and capacities for agricultural development; housing and road construction along with manufacturing and services.Within the manifesto the party also stipulated that it will be adhering to both international and local policies with regard to the treatment of Indigenous peoples. The document said that while the APNU+AFC recognises the improvements in the laws and conditions of Indigenous Peoples in Guyana; there is still “significant progress” to be made in this regard.The document maintained that an APNU+AFC administration will recognise the protection of the right to traditional lands, territories and resources that Indigenous Peoples of Guyana have. |
