The focus will be on identifying timely solutions to challenges such as the participation of PWDs, with a particular emphasis on children, women, and those residing in rural communities.<\/p>\n<p>The activity involves both the 6 administrative regions namely, Upper River Region (URR), Central River Region (CRR) Lower River Region (LRR), North Bank Region (NBR), West Coast Region (WCR) &amp; Kanifing Municipal Council and Banjul (KMC\/BJL).<\/p>\n<p>Yusupha Bojang, Chief Civic Education Officer at NCCE, said it is a need for regular convergence of stakeholders, particularly PWDs, to discuss issues affecting them to identify timely solutions to address them. As evidenced by the recent national conference on disability rights, providing forums for PWDs to engage with decision-makers is useful as it can include them in national development initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we embark on this journey, let us remember that inclusion is not just a goal to be achieved, but a fundamental human right that demands our unwavering dedication and collective action. Through dialogue, collaboration, and tireless advocacy, we have the power to transform perceptions, dismantle barriers, and pave the way for a more equitable and accessible future for all. Although we have come a long way in our journey to realizing the rights of persons with disabilities, we all know we still have a long way to go\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Bojang added that as the leading civic education institution in The Gambia, they attach great significance to the participation of PwDs in our governance processes. Together, let us ignite the flame of change and ensure that the voices and aspirations of Persons with Disabilities are not only heard but valued and embraced.<\/p>\n<p>He expressed NCCE\u2019s continuious commitment in facilitating dialogues of this nature to raise awareness of this new PWD Act and to promote the respect for the rights of persons with disabilities.<\/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.
