My vision is to ensure equitable access to quality education for all Gambian students, irrespective of their geographical location or socioeconomic background. By leveraging our e-learning platform, G-Quiz. I am looking forward to connecting with like-minded professionals in the ed-tech space for potential collaborations. I am also excited about the prospect of contributing my experience working with students between the age 14-19, ministry of education, telecommunications companies, and NGOs.

I am motivated because during the Cop28 in Dubai, I got the chance to hear abit about what your organisation does and I was inspired. I believe joining you people on the journey of change is a great way to explore, share and gain insights on another level of climate change, also exchanging ideas on what has worked and what hasn't from different perspectives, I think is a great opportunity or motivation to join the team and support its cause, as it aligns with my values as an advocate.

Aligning with a global movement supports our mission to address educational and socioeconomic challenges, from providing educational resources to empowering women and youth. Catalyst 2030 offers the opportunity to connect with like-minded organizations and strengthen our efforts in supporting vulnerable communities and fostering social innovation.

1. Catalyst 2030 is a recognized platform wherein people network globally, as such I feel that here I can foster strong cooperation and collaboration with other people across the world. 2. I also believe that by learning from best practices one can evenly improve his/her service delivery, and my optimism is that there is no better platform to achieve this than catalyst 2030. 3. I also hope that this experiences I will be exposed to in catalyst 2030 will help in widening my horizon as far as community work and development is concern.
