Jacob Francis Sarr kicked off the Taranga Youth Foundation at a church in Kololi, basically trying to tackle mental health problems and give Gambian kids better options than risking their lives on boats to Europe. The guy got emotional about watching young people back home getting crushed by drugs and hopelessness, and he wants to build a youth center called The Volt where teenagers can actually talk about their feelings, learn tech skills, and get mentorship, plus hot meals.

Migration activist Ebrima Drammeh dropped some rough numbers about hundreds of Gambians currently floating around the Mediterranean with no one knowing where they are, and he mentioned that almost 2,000 people tried the journey in late November alone, with 24 confirmed deaths. The whole event wrapped up with people calling for job programs and mental health investment as the real fix instead of letting kids gamble their lives on dangerous migration routes.
