The Gambian government made a new plan to help young people build peace in their country. Many important people came to see the launch of this plan at a big meeting place named after Sir Dawda Kairaba Jawara. Leaders from the government and the United Nations wanted to show they care about young people making their country better.

Some big groups helped make this plan happen. The United Nations, Germany, and the National Youth Council worked together. They want young people to speak up about peace and help make decisions that matter for everyone's safety.

Bakary Badjie leads the youth and sports team in The Gambia. He says young people will make their country's future bright. He believes this plan will help everyone work together for peace. Most people in The Gambia are younger than 35, which means young people can make great changes.

The plan makers talked to more than 2,000 young people last year. These young people shared their thoughts about making their country better. They talked about stopping fights, making things fair, helping people find jobs, and letting young people participate in important decisions.

Alhagie Jarju runs the National Youth Council. He thinks this plan shows what happens when people work together. He feels happy because young people can help make big decisions. The Gambia has joined other countries that follow special United Nations rules about young people helping to keep peace. These rules say young people play a big part in making the world peaceful and safe.
