The Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) has intensified the
implementation of its civic and voter education strategy for General and Regional Elections with several community engagements already underway countrywide, and a series of other planned activities in the
coming weeks.
This is in addition to its radio, television and social media advertising campaigns.
Over the past few days, GECOM’s civic and voter education team has conducted public outreaches at the Vreed-en-Hoop and Parika Stellings, and at the Mon Repos, Stabroek and Anna Regina markets respectively.
An information session was also held on the 3rd July, 2025 at the Cyril Potter College of
Education with Teacher Trainees.
Further, in the coming days, the team will ramp up their efforts through planned outreaches in Region Two (2) at the Supenaam Water Front, Suddie and Charity Markets, Mainstay/Whyaka Community and Bethany Mission. Teams will also be in Main Street, Georgetown, New Amsterdam, Port Mourant, Corriverton and Parika Markets.
This strategy forms part of GECOM’s mandate to ensure that all stakeholders receive accurate information
that will contribute to them making important decisions regarding their participation in the democratic process.
While these engagements are specifically designed to ensure that all stakeholders, particularly the electorate receives adequate information and are knowledgeable about the electoral processes, the importance of their participation, their rights and responsibilities, and election offences, among other information, it also lends itself to promoting an environment of transparency.
In view of the foregoing, GECOM is encouraging all stakeholders to interact with its voter education team, uplift pertinent information materials and also visit GECOM’s website at www.gecom.org.gy or follow us on Facebook page at Guyana Elections Commission, to keep abreast with updated and relevant information on the electoral process.
