NEW AMSTERDAM, Berbice — October 29, 2026
Young influencers met with Minister Persaud at her office on Wednesday afternoon to give her an update on the projects they pitched at the Catalyst Collective event in September.
Project leaders walked the minister through the work they have done since the event, where the ideas were first presented.
The projects cover a wide range of areas. These include agriculture and sustainability, youth empowerment and mentorship, cyber bullying awareness, support for teenage mothers, and time management.
Some of the young leaders spoke about what they have achieved so far. Others told the minister about the challenges they are facing on the ground.
The meeting was a check-in, but it also worked as a coaching session. Minister Persaud offered advice on how the young people can move forward and take their projects to the next level.
Her message to them remained the same: put the ideas into action and create a positive impact in their communities.
