The
library of the George Price Centre for Peace and Development provides
a complete record on the life and work of the Rt. Honourable George
Price. Visitors will find documents, pictures and memorabilia
preserved by the Rt. Hon. George Price during his years of service
to Belize, as well as books on this remarkable man. A comprehensive
database of these media is being prepared and will be made available
soon. We have also made a selection of historically important
documents which can be viewed here.
In addition to
information on Mr. Price, we offer comprehensive information to
individuals interested in studying the subjects of Peace and Development
in Belize, the Region and the World. We are acquiring publications
and other media about Belize's history and development, as well
as peace and development initiatives and achievements throughout
the wider Region. The list of available books and publications
can be viewed here.

you would like to contribute books, videos, pictures, etc.

of Belize, the Region and the World, kindly contact us at info@gpcbelize.com or

The George Price Archival Collection |
Mr. Price has donated a significant number of documents, files, photographs and memorabilia that chart his life and work to the Centre. These items have been incorporated into the George Price Archival Collection. The Collection is a remarkable and valuable resource in that it is an extensive record of historic events and situations affecting Belize as well as the Central-American and Caribbean Regions.
The Collection can be accessed by anyone who is interested in research on various aspects of the development of Belize, including its history and politics.
At this time, the entire Collection is being entered into a database, which can be accessed here. |
