PEACE Corps Guyana is today conducting, at the Guyana International Conference Centre (GICC) at Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown, the swearing-in ceremony for the 25th group of Peace Corps Volunteers, who would take the oath of allegiance to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

A press release from the United States (US) Embassy said the trainees arrived in Guyana on May 2, 2013, and have since been involved in pre-service training designed to equip them with the necessary practical skills to meet the needs of the communities they will serve.
Components of this training include a focus on technical and cross-cultural concepts, local language, and maintaining personal health, safety and security.
The release said that, upon being sworn in, this group of volunteers would support primary level education and community health education by serving two years in seven of the 10 administrative regions of Guyana.
