We are proud to announce that Kanifing Municipal Council (KMC) has been selected as one of 50 global finalists in the prestigious 2025 Bloomberg Philanthropies Mayors Challenge!

Selected from over 630 applications across 33 countries, KMC’s innovative proposal stood out for its bold approach to tackling real urban challenges and improving lives. As a finalist, KMC will receive $50,000 to test our idea and join the Bloomberg Ideas Camp alongside top city leaders and experts from around the world.

In January 2026, 25 cities will be awarded $1 million each to fully implement their projects—and we are proudly in the race!

This global recognition is a testament to our ongoing commitment to innovation, sustainable development, and delivering better services for the people of Kanifing.

Congratulations to our team and community!
