At the @UNPeacebuilding our transitional justice process especially the #TRRC was the highlight.I hope we will utilise the opportunity to garner support in our overall transformation journey. In my @salieutaal's voice the glass is half full. Congratulations @Gambia_MOJ
As the Conf🎤 for Young Lawyers on enhancing access to #Justice, #RuleOfLaw & #HumanRights supported by @UNDP_TheGambia concludes with more deliberations on law presented by seasoned members of the @BarGambia, the main takeaway is the call for more probono legal services to #LNOB
Exhausted but the day was well spent with @salieutaal @MuhammedBSowe @skjobe_@GayeSowe and ors talking about how young lawyers can help protect and promote access to Justice, rule of law and good governance.
All I can say is the future is bright!
