Promoting Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR) of Women and Girls in The Gambia: Advocacy and Rights Education Towards 2030 and 2063 Goals

In pursuit of advancing the sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR) of women and girls in The Gambia, a comprehensive three-day initiative was spearheaded by the Canadian Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) in collaboration with GAMCOTRAP. This transformative endeavor unfolded across the Central River Region (CRR) and North Bank Region (NBR), with focal points in Wassu, Farafenne, and Jarra Soma. Under the overarching theme of gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, the initiative aimed to promote SRHR through advocacy and rights education, aligning with the visionary goals set for 2030 and 2063.

The program comprised a series of meticulously planned activities, each designed to address specific aspects of SRHR and empower participants with knowledge and skills essential for promoting gender equality. Central to the initiative was the engagement of diverse stakeholders, including women leaders, community representatives, religious figures, and young girls, ensuring a holistic approach to addressing prevailing challenges and fostering sustainable change.
