The Guyana Council of Organisations for Persons with Disabilities (GCOPD) extends warm congratulations to His Excellency Dr. Mohamed Irfaan Ali and the People’s Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C) on their reelection at the recently concluded 2025 General and Regional Elections.  This achievement reflects the trust and confidence that the people of Guyana have placed in your leadership and vision for the country.  As you move forward in shaping national development, we are optimistic that your government will continue to prioritize inclusion, accessibility, and equal opportunities for persons with disabilities in collaboration with the disability community.  From 2020 to 2025 under your leadership, we have seen the positive transformation of the disability landscape in Guyana.  Opportunities for empowerment and independence for persons with disabilities is no longer a dream but the reality.

The GCOPD remains committed to working in partnership with your administration to advance policies and programs that promote the rights, independence, and full participation of persons with disabilities in every aspect of national life.

We look forward to strengthening collaboration in the areas of education, employment, accessibility, healthcare, and sports, ensuring that no citizen is left behind as Guyana continues its journey of progress. [Guyana Council of Organisations for Persons with Disabilities Press Release]
