Enhanced River Transport Boosts Education Access in Region 2
In Region 2 (Pomeroon–Supenaam), the introduction of government-provided school boats is transforming education access for riverine communities. Students who once relied on unsafe canoes or lengthy commutes now travel safely and consistently to school. Equipped with safety gear and operated by trained personnel, these boats have boosted attendance, reduced dropouts, and improved punctuality. Beyond transportation, the initiative represents an investment in equity, ensuring remote children receive the same educational opportunities as their urban peers—one river journey at a time.
