(Picture – Facilitating a workshop with the Ministry of Local Government)
The Gambia was a rewarding experience. Here are some of the views of my early time here. In this album you will see the fishing harbour where I could buy fish every evening after work. You have a glimpse of a local festival and the colours that people wear. There is also my visit inland to a village called Tendaba. Here I facilitated a three day workshop for The Ministry of Local Government on Strategic Planning. You also get a flavour of people and settings in this village.
