On World Indigenous Peoples Day, we honour the culture, resilience, and contributions of Guyana’s indigenous people. Guyana has nine indigenous nations: Arawak, Akawaio, Arekuna, Carib, Makushi, Patamona, Wai Wai, Wapishana, and Warau. These tribes are distinguished by their languages and cultural practices, with some residing on the coast and others in the interior regions of Guyana.#WorldIndigenousPeoplesDay #VisitGuyana #DiscoverGuyana #ProudlyGuyanese | Visit Guyana
