Gov’t signs Letter of Intent with Hospitality Business School

The cooperation is expected to promote academic collaboration, cultural and personnel exchanges and pave the way to more formal and binding agreements that include the development of

Gambian students and hospitality curricula revisions in Gambian institutions. The 130 years of expertise of EHL, the world's first hotel school, will serve as an accelerator for The Gambia hospitality sector and for its education institutions.

Upon signing the protocol, His Excellency Dr. Mamadou Tangara, Minister of Foreign Affairs,

International Cooperation and Gambians Abroad said: “This cooperation will benefit the entire hospitality sector in The Gambia, including our students and tourism sector. We expect this will lead to structural, long-term changes in our educational programs and enable a holistic review of the sector. Cooperating with the best institutions will accelerate our already on-going developments of the sector in the country.’’
