We are stakeholders in combating unemployment within the West Coast Region. To create an inclusive environment and ensure that the dialogue is accessible to all especially the marginalized groups because when talking about issues of young people, we tend to forget about the differently abled persons and again, the Brikama Area Council allocates D500, 000 for the disabled individuals in this region, to make sure that they are empowered and unlock their potentials because they are also taking the back-way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
