Women's Progressive Organization of Guyana receives Cuban diplomats

The Cuban Embassy in Guyana met with the Women's Progressive Organization (WPO), an organization that turned 70 years old in 2023, after its founding by former President Janet Jagan, wife of former President Cheddi. The meeting took place at the “Red House”, which was the residence of the former President and is now the Research Center of the same name, and was attended by WPO executives, including WPO’s leader Indranie Chandarpal.

During the meeting, the exceptional achievements of Cuban women were confirmed, highlighting statistics that show their outstanding participation in all social spheres, and initiatives such as the National Program for the Advancement of Women and the Comprehensive Strategy to Prevent Domestic Violence.

WPO's interest in renewing ties with the Federation of Cuban Women (FMC) was ratified to promote ties between the organizations, cooperation and exchange of experiences, within the framework of the possibilities offered by the relationships of friendship and solidarity of the two countries.
