The United Nations Industrial Development Organization delivered equipment to 25 Gambian refrigeration technicians on Thursday, following workshops held at the NaNA Conference Hall. The tools support climate-safe cooling systems under agreements tied to the Kigali Implementation Plan and the Montreal Protocol, which target greenhouse gas reduction.
University of Applied Science, Engineering and Technology will establish a Recycling and Reclamation Centre using the donation as its foundation. Vice-Chancellor Nazmat Surajudeen-Bakinde said the facility will train students and professionals in environmentally responsible methods while advancing research programs.
National Environment Agency Deputy Director Njagga Touray stated that the initiative helps the Gambia meet its international climate commitments. Technician Momodou Jeng said the equipment raises service standards and improves refrigerant handling safety across West Coast Region installations.
Morche Assine from Kanifing Municipality credited the partnership between UNIDO, NEA and USET for strengthening local technical capabilities. The program addresses cooling demands through sustainable practices as temperatures climb nationwide.
