To accomplish our mission and objective, Global Unification –The Gambia in collaboration with concern partners is working hard to established GU ICT Resource and Training Centres in the six Regions of the Gambia, for the purpose of improving the life skills of local communities needed for them to effectively participate in nation building.
Our Priority Areas:
To achieve our objectives, Global Unification has divided its work in five priority programs called domains. These are:
1. Information Communication Technology:
Global Unification-The Gambia will introduce to local communities in The Gambia, GU ICT Resource centres that will provide Internet access, secretarial services, communication services etc. The centres will also provide ICT knowledge and skills and linguistics studies for young people as our priority for assisting in the eradication of ignorance and illiteracy by developing a system whereby we train the trainers.
2. Youth Affairs:
In the Gambian youth (Male and Female) account to nearly 50% of population yet they seldom participate in decision making at national level, event on critical issues affected. This is attributed to large extend on low level of education, which is aggravated by poverty and unemployment or underemployment. The GU youth welfare program has as its sole objective the promotion, protection, defense and assistance for the successful implementation and application of adopted policies for the advancement of youths.
3. Women Affairs:
Indicators reveal that the population of women in the Gambia is growing rapidly, and still they remain among the most vulnerable to common difficulties and crises such as HIV/AIDS, gender base violence etc, thus making it imperative for us to join hands in advancing their lives.
This program has as its sole objective the promotion, protection, defense and assistance for the successful implementation and application of adopted policies for the advancement of women.
4. Advocacy, Lobbying and Campaigning:
This program is designed to unite policy makers and grassroots communities for the common goal of advancing humanity, enabling a richer environment for the successful implementation and application of policies for the continued evolution of co-operation.
5. Children Affairs:
The children program is one of our main priorities. When you consider the reality that children are the leaders of tomorrow and yet are among the most vulnerable to crises and communal distress, therefore we will be introducing educational methods best suited to prepare the children of the Gambia for the responsibilities of the future.
This program has as its sole objective the promotion, protection, defense and assistance for the successful implementation and application of adopted policies for the advancement of children.

Hey there, Here's one from left field for you... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently?

Thank you for becoming a friend of the American Anti-Slavery Group. From sex slaves in Asia to chattel slaves in Africa, more people are enslaved today than ever before. At the American Anti-Slavery Group (AASG) we fight for the freedom of the estimated 27 million victims of human trafficking globally through education, advocacy work, grassroots activism, and direct aid.
We need the help of supporters like you. AASG is currently working with Christian Solidarity International to liberate slaves in Sudan and providing them with food, medical care, and necessary supplies to rebuild their lives. At least 12,000 people are being held in slavery in northern Sudan and many more are being displaced, kidnapped, murdered and abused in Darfur.
We are also fighting slavery within the US. It is estimated that nearly 17,000 people are trafficked into the United States every year and held in bondage through forced labor, debt bondage, chattel slavery, and sex slavery.
You can learn more about these issues and many others by visiting our website at www.iabolish.org/ and please consider putting our banner on your site. Thank you for your support.
