Comprehensive Sexual Education should be made mandatory in schools, starting from the elementary level.
Children deserve age-appropriate, accurate education about their bodies, boundaries, consent, and respect from an early age.
Honoured to have been featured on an Autism Awareness Day story for the @cgtnafrica by the beautiful @lena and team! Thank you for choosing my story as a parent of a child with ASD๐

โWhy are you always in the field?โ
Because my work & purpose is with women& girls in their homes, gardens, classrooms, & communities, no matter how far.
I go to learn, to empower, to listen.
7days away from home, 250 women & girls, 5 communities , message is clear #Endgbv

๐ Together for Autism Gambia x BHS Academy ๐
We were honored to be invited by BHS Academy to lead an in-person workshop on โUnderstanding Neurodiversity: Autism and Beyond.โ
The session fostered empathy, inclusion, and awareness of autism, building a more inclusive Gambia.
Our founder, Ms. Sirreh Saho, paid a special visit to Nemasu Care Home, where she trained caregivers on practical and compassionate ways to better support the children, especially Junkunda, an inspiring child on the autism spectrum.

I reject the call by a group of men posing as โConcerned Citizensโ to repeal #Gambiaโs FGM ban and their push for its medicalisation. FGM is never safe no matter the age, setting, or justification.
It violates the rights and bodies of girls and women FULL-STOP!
#FGM is a violation of the rights of women and girls, and the world recognises it as such.
The Gambia where the #BanjulCharter was born and a country presently considered globally as a beacon of human rights must uphold its legacy as a defender of human rights.
Weโve issued a press statement in reaction to the charges and prosecution of three women in connection to the alleged tragic death of a 1 month old baby girl linked to FGM in The Gambia.
Read our full statement and stand with us to end FGM
#FGM is never safe! not at home, not in a hospital, not anywhere.
Itโs never safe at any age! not in childhood, not as a teen, not in adulthood.
Every form of FGM is harmful. Every time. Every place. Every age.
#FGM must end.
#EndFGM
Did you know?
Autistic people often have other conditions such as; Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Dyslexia, Anxiety, Depression, Epilepsy, Intellectual Disability, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
Together, we improve the quality of life and promote inclusion!
According to @GambiaForce, a 1-month-old baby girl has died after undergoing #FGM.
Her life was stolen by a brutal, senseless act. This is a wake-up call for #Gambia. @NHRCGambia
Shame on anyone pushing to decriminalise this violence. FGM is not culture, itโs cruelty.
