The Victim's Podcast

Today @YelefInitiative we launched our project in collaboration with @DemocracyIntl. The initiative aims to assist @GambiaBar throughout the post-#TRRC accountability mechanism process. Our guest on the podcast @AFatty101 spoke on the the importance of criminal accountability.

We proudly celebrate our Chief Ninja , Ms. Ida Persson, on this well-deserved Woman of the Year award. Her leadership and dedication to advancing transitional justice and victims’ rights continue to inspire our work. #Gambia

Today, we recorded our very first video podcast in the studio, featuring the Special Advisor on the Post-TRRC process to the Minister of @Gambia_MOJ. The conversation focused on diaspora engagement and the ongoing accountability mechanisms. A heartfelt thank you to @UNDP_TheGambia, @UNHumanRights, @ONU_Droits_BRAO, and @UNPeacebuilding for making the transition from audio to video and the studio idea itself a reality. Stay tuned and watch this space exciting content is on the way!

Today in #Dankuku, Mr. Sillah encouraged participants not to let the violations they had endured prevent them from raising their children with integrity.
