Even as the University of Guyana recently concluded its inaugural Diaspora Engagement Conference, the lack of youth involvement is something that certainly has not gone unnoticed.
Two Fridays ago, the University brought the curtains down on its five-day conference which was held under the theme: “Dreaming Diaspora Engagement, Doing Diaspora Engagement”. The conference also concluded with the installation of Professor Ivelaw Griffith as the tenth Vice Chancellor of the University.
The conference organized by the University was also reported to have seen some 200 stakeholders and leaders in the diaspora engage in various fora and symposia towards the strengthening of partnerships with overseas organizations.
