IHRDA today completed the seventh human rights training workshop for law enforcement officers in The Gambia. This session targeted officers from agencies around the Brikama area and ran from 23rd – 25th FEB 2016.
It should be noted that our target is to realise 8 of these training sessions in different localities within The Gambia between October 2015 and March 2016.
Each participant is given a CD with compilation of all relevant Gambian laws, as well as all African Union and United Nations instruments pertaining to policing and human rights. Meanwhile, we are developing a human rights manual for Gambia law enforcement agencies.
This project is being realized with the financial support of British Embassy in Banjul.
