On the sidelines of the Second World Summit for Social Development, the Hon. Minister of Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation and Gambians Abroad, H.E. Sering Modou Njie, delivered a statement during a Roundtable Discussion on Strengthening the Pillars of Social Development: Poverty Eradication, Full and Productive Employment and Decent Work for All, and Social Inclusion.

In his address, Minister Njie underscored the urgent need for collective global action to tackle poverty, unemployment, and inequality, which continue to impede sustainable socio-economic progress worldwide.

He highlighted The Gambiaโ€™s commitment to integrated and inclusive policy solutions anchored in equality, social justice, and solidarity emphasizing the importance of decent work, particularly for youth and women, as well as resilience-building and inclusive growth.

FM Njie further called for a comprehensive review of the international financial architecture, the adoption of a fair and universal tax convention, and renewed efforts to expand open market access, enhance production capacity, and mitigate the impact of climate change.

โ€œOur progress as a global community will remain incomplete unless we address these injustices at their roots,โ€ he stated. โ€œLet us keep the momentum, honor our promises, and work collectively to build a world where dignity, equity, and opportunity are a reality for all.โ€

The Minister reaffirmed The Gambiaโ€™s unwavering dedication to multilateral cooperation, in line with the Copenhagen and Doha Declarations, to ensure that no one is left behind in the pursuit of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
