Dariel Krammer discusses the education system in Region One Guyana and CUSO-VSO's role in supporting literacy and special education initiatives there. Region One faces many educational challenges, including insufficient teacher training. The region is also very large and there a large number of children who need to travel by canoe to reach their school every day.

At Cuso International, we believe we are changing the world, one volunteer at a time. That’s because volunteering can be transforming for both the overseas community and volunteer. Each year, we send hundreds of global citizens to work on collaborative development projects in more than 40 countries around the world. The views expressed in these podcasts do not necessarily reflect the views of Cuso International or its supporters. About Jessica Dubelaar
