The 10 Gambian immigration officers completed their Special Skills and Military Training under the banner “Women for Peace and Security Training” by the UAE Government.
The participants were nominated by the Gambia Immigration Department on the invitation of the UAE authorities to benefit from the training offered to The Gambia by the United Arab Emirates through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and facilitated by the Gambian Embassy in Abu Dhabi and the Directorate of Middle East Affairs under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The Gambia and the United Arab Emirates have strong bilateral ties and this gesture is one out of many that symbolise the good relations that both governments enjoy.
The young officers expressed appreciation and emphasised the great benefits of the training.
This is not the first batch to benefit from such peacekeeping trainings from the UAE, with the last one coming in 2019 before the outbreak of Covid-19, organised by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak’s Organisation via the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
