IN partnership with @men4equality1 & with the support of @UNICEFGambia, this week, we empowered CSO reps tackling harmful practices like #FGM & child marriage with skills in #GTA
Together, we’re driving change for girls & women!

Masculinity doesn’t mean:
❌ being dominant
❌ being in control
Gender equality cannot be achieved without the involvement of men and boys.

@men4equality1 we believe masculinity is about care, balance, and shared responsibility. Seeing Mamadi take charge in the kitchen reminds us that real strength isn’t just in numbers but in nurturing too. Here’s to men breaking stereotypes and inspiring change – one meal at a time
#TGIF
Our finance officer, Mamadi, is taking a break from numbers to whip up something tasty in the kitchen today. 😋
Here’s to positive masculinity and hoping Mamadi’s cooking skills are as impressive as his financial reports! 😂

Watch as we train and establish Fathers’ Clubs. This new initiative brings fathers together to lead with love, promote gender equality, and champion positive masculinity in their families and communities.
For us, this is more than a training; it’s the start of a movement.
This is what it’s all about 👌🧏🏾
Members of our father’s club in LRR are ready to make a change in their households and communities for the promotion of Positive Masculinity.

Behind every statistic about #FGM is a girl whose life is changed forever. This isn't tradition to be preserved; it is a violent harmful practice causing severe, lasting physical and emotional harm and sometimes loss of life.
The message from @UNGambia is clear: "No child should ever suffer or lose their lives to a practice that is entirely preventable."
We thank The Government of The Gambia for its continued commitment to protecting women and girls by enforcing the law against FGM without exception. We stand with them in their unequivocal condemnation of this tragic and preventable death.

Periods aren’t taboo. They’re natural.
And they’re not just a “women’s issue”, they’re a human issue.
Men and boys, your role matters.
Speak up. Show up. Break the silence.
Menstrual health = human rights.
Tag someone who needs to hear this. Let’s normalize the conversations.

Together, we can end FGM for good!
The representative of @men4equality1 states that FGM has lasting repercussions, but we can stop it."
Education, awareness, and collective action are key.
Let’s work together to end FGM for good.
