"When will this vicious cycle end?"

Caribbean SIDS are repeatedly caught in relentless cycles of debt distress driven by climate and external shocks. The debt–climate–development nexus is not a one-time crisis but a systemic feedback loop.

Tides of Debt powerfully unites the voices of policymakers, civil society, and vulnerable communities to reveal the region's reality and demand justice. True emancipation in the twenty-first century requires liberation from debt dependency, fiscal instability, and climate injustice.

Stay tuned for more on socials.

The Massy Foundation has officially been launched in Guyana, expanding its regional footprint and bringing new opportunities for non-governmental organisations to access funding and support.

Established in 1979 by the Massy Group, the Massy Foundation is a charitable trust focused on investing in social and community development initiatives.

The Foundation already operates in Trinidad and Tobago and Barbados, and its expansion to Guyana signals a deepening commitment to regional development.

Through its annual grants programme, the Foundation provides financial and technical support to NGO-led projects that deliver meaningful impact across communities.

The organisation’s work is centred on key areas including education, youth development, health, arts and culture, and community empowerment.

Its overarching mission is to create value, transform lives, alleviate poverty, and promote sustainable development.

Several local organisations are set to benefit from the Foundation’s support, including the Guyana Girl Guides Association, Lotus Cancer Initiative, Rotary Club of Garden City, and Women Across Differences.

The launch of the Massy Foundation in Guyana is expected to strengthen grassroots development efforts and provide a timely boost to organisations working to improve lives across the country.

Today marks a special milestone!

We are thrilled to launch our Wednesday Meal Initiative for the Comprehensive Empowerment Programme for Adolescent Mothers. A nutritious meal is more than just food—it’s the fuel our young mothers need to focus on their training, build community, and grow their futures.
A massive thank you to our first partner, Mr. Shon Adam of FreshPress Enterprises, and Joycelyn Rockcliffe of The Yoruba Singers Band for sponsoring today’s meal! & Juice, your generosity ensures that our participants can learn and lead without worrying about hunger. 🍱✨
Together, we are building a stronger support system for the young mothers and women of Guyana.

Different Backgrounds. One Vision.

Today, we celebrate the resilience of women who turn differences into strength. At Women Across Differences (WAD), we know that when women support women, barriers don’t just crack—they fall.

Let’s keep building bridges, breaking glass ceilings, and lifting as we climb.

Our new midwife, Well done Ashly! The sky is the limit, keep striving

As 16 days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence begin. Women Across Differences (WAD) extend this message to every women and girls

Your Screen, Her Safety: Let’s UNiTE to End Digital Violence!

The digital world promises connection, but for millions of women and girls, it has become a new frontier for Gender-Based Violence (GBV). From cyberstalking and non-consensual sharing of intimate images to cat fishing and mass online harassment, digital violence is a real-world threat that silences voices and destroys lives.

WAD say: for online abuse.

Be a responsible user. Do not share, forward, or laugh at harmful content. Report it immediately. Protect yourself.

Challenge misogyny and online hate when you see it. Your silence enables the abuse. Speak Up.

Let's reclaim the digital space as a place of empowerment, not a weapon of harm.

UNiTE. Act. End Digital Violence against Women and Girls
