Guyana’s first time hosting the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Youth Ambassador Programme appeared to be a hit, as the youth representatives displayed their country’s culture Tuesday evening, following the commencement of their four-day capacity building workshop on Monday.

The cultural programme was held by the Ministry of Education, Department of Youth, Culture and Sport at the Umana Yana, Kingston, Georgetown, where the CARICOM youth representatives took a walk down memory lane.

Each Caribbean state represented by their Youth Ambassador performed through the spoken word, music, song, dance and drama about what made their country stand out from the rest of the Caribbean, showcasing their unique take of their culture and diversity.
