GAMWRITERS

This workshop, the first of its kind in The Gambia and initiated by WAG, intends to provide the required skills in fiction writing by putting special focus on short stories and at the same time build capacities of writers, so declared by Mr. Yahya Al Matarr Jobe, Principal Programme Officer of NATCOM at the official opening of the workshop.

UNESCO-NATCOM is proud to be associated with such an activity for diverse reasons,according to Jobe, some of which are expected to mark a significant and meaning collaboration between UNESCO-NATCOM and WAG in the near future.

One of the mandates of UNESCO since its inception has been to engage all stakeholders in the promotion of education and cultural diversity under which the workshop falls, as Jobe pointed out.
