CARIBBEAN Airlines recently announced a partnership with the Guyana Tourism Authority (GTA) to advance education through its Sustainability Programme.

The airlines celebrated the third anniversary of its Sustainability Programme on Wednesday.

In a press release, Caribbean Airlines said it continues to make a positive impact across the region through initiatives that empower communities, and invest in future generations.

One such initiative, they said, came to life in Guyana, where Caribbean Airlines partnered with the GTA to host its Career Caravan education outreach programme at four secondary schools across the East Coast and the East Bank Demerara, engaging students in from Forms Three to Five at schools from May 27 through 28, 2026.

According to the release, over the two days, students of Annandale Secondary, President’s College, Soesdyke Secondary and Diamond Secondary were introduced to exciting career opportunities within the aviation and tourism industries through presentations delivered by the Caribbean Airlines team and tourism professionals.

Renatha Marshall, Caribbean Airline’s Country Manager for Guyana and Suriname, who commented on the Caravan, stated: “Our young people are an important demographic for Caribbean Airlines. It is, therefore, essential that we engage and connect with them as the next generation of leaders, and our Career Caravan education outreach programme provides a meaningful platform to achieve this objective.

“Additionally, we sincerely thank the Guyana Tourism Authority, a valued stakeholder, for partnering with us on this initiative, and helping to make it a success. We further extend special thanks to the Ministry of Education Guyana for giving our team the opportunity to engage with the students.”

The Career Caravan is a flagship initiative under the Education Pillar of the Airline’s Sustainability Programme. Since its launch, it has positively impacted over 137,000 students throughout the Caribbean, the press release said.

This successful collaboration highlights the power of partnership, volunteerism, and community engagement, values that have been at the heart of the airline’s Sustainability Programme since its launch on June 3, 2023.

As Caribbean Airlines celebrates three years of sustainability throughout the month of June, it remains committed to creating meaningful opportunities, strengthening communities, and making a lasting difference across the region it proudly serves, the release added.
