Guyana is calling for stronger international action to combat digital violence against women, with Minister of Human Services and Social Security Dr Vindhya Persaud urging the global community to establish clear accountability measures and strengthen protections for women participating in public life.
Minister Persaud made the call on October 5, 2026, when she addressed the Forum of Women Parliamentarians at the 153rd Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) in Arusha, Tanzania.
Dr Persaud advocated a global approach that goes beyond women’s representation in leadership to ensure they exercise meaningful influence over decisions affecting peace, security, economic development, and resource allocation.
