WE have said before that one of the best things about the Pepperpot is its ability to capture stories spanning a vast range of topics which all come together to form a healthy mixture that enriches your Sunday reading.

This week’s Pepperpot is testimony to that and explores myriad topics including Science, art, craft, education, health and humanitarianism. Among these stories includes a feature on World Leprosy Day which looks at the causes and symptoms of Leprosy and how one organisation pledges to do more in order to help combat this chronic disease.

Our lead story falls within the realm of Science and looks Geographic Information Systems (GIS), a speciality that may seem complicated to most but which one man is actually using to help to advance Guyana’s natural resource management. We hope that these and other stories which make up this week’s Pepperpot bring knowledge and inspiration!
