Wakapau, Guyana

Submitted by oso on Fri, 2005/05/13 - 1:01pm.

From Peace Corps volunteer, Scott Stadum:

There is a tiny village up the Essequibo here in Guyana, located in the rainforest. The village, Wakapau, is quite bustling due to the work of a few volunteers in the region. There is a health center, a new library, soon they will be getting computers and are already working with solar panels for sustainable energy. Wakapau also produces various wood products that are quite nice, and may possibly need a section to their web site that will allow for the sale of these products. If you know anyone that might be interested in this project, could you give me a holler. It could be a lot of fun and a good opportunity to bridge cultures.

If you are interested in helping, you can contact Scott via his blog.
