6 female Guyanese Cops in Alaska for major conference

Six female officers of the Guyana Police Force/Guyana Association of Women Police led by Deputy Commissioner Maxine Graham, DSM and assisted by Superintendent Grace Davis last Friday, 2019, departed Guyana to Anchorage, Alaska, United States of America to attend the International Association of Women Police 57th Annual Training Conference being held from September 23-27, 2019.
The Conference, which is being hosted in Anchorage for the third time and being held under the theme “Mentoring the Next Generation” attracted the attendance of over 800 delegates from 43 countries.
The opening ceremony was held on Monday September 23, 2019, at the Dena’ina Civic and Convention Centre, followed by the parade of the nations through the downtown area of Alaska.
During the Conference delegates will benefit from training in areas; such as Leadership, the origins of Sexual Violence, Gender Equality in Law Enforcement and Human Trafficking among others.
The GAWP on an annual basis, during its outreach programmes, encourages female officers and other ranks to attend and benefit from this training which will enhance their capacity and help them to perform more efficiently and effectively, something which has been successful over the years.
