The National Assembly has received media equipment worth D750,000 in a move aimed at opening up parliamentary proceedings and strengthening public access to legislative work.
The donation, funded by the European Union (EU) and delivered through International IDEA, includes professional cameras, lenses and tripods designed to improve the live coverage and documentation of parliamentary sittings and committee engagements.
Presenting the equipment in Banjul, International IDEA Country Director, Mrs. Jainaba Faye, said the support forms part of ongoing efforts to promote accountability and deepen democratic practice in The Gambia.
She explained that limited media tools had been identified as a key challenge affecting the Assembly’s communication and outreach.
