Students of the University of The Gambia,
In our commitment to promoting student wellbeing, inclusivity, and a healthier campus environment, the UTG Inter-School Alliance for Change proudly presents a compassionate, competent, and dedicated candidate for Gender and Health Minister.
Miss Nyima Sanyang (Nurse Nyima) is a visionary leader committed to strengthening student health services, advancing gender equity, and improving support systems across our university.
Guided by this vision, she presents a clear and practical roadmap for change. We therefore present her five (5) key policy priorities aimed at strengthening student health systems, advancing gender equity, and fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all:
♦️ *IMPROVING STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES:* To ensure accessible, reliable, and student-friendly healthcare by advocating for extended clinic hours, consistent availability of essential medications, effective emergency response systems, and the establishment of a student health helpline for timely support.
♦️ *ADVANCING GENDER EQUITY AND DIGNITY:* To promote a safe and inclusive campus through the introduction of sanitary assistance initiatives, strengthened GBV reporting mechanisms, continuous gender awareness campaigns, and advocacy for equal representation in leadership spaces.
♦️ *PROMOTING PREVENTIVE HEALTHCARE:* To champion a culture of prevention through regular health screenings, targeted awareness programs, and strategic partnerships with health organizations, empowering students with knowledge while reducing health risks.
♦️ *STRENGTHENING MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS:* To address the growing mental health needs of students through peer support systems, awareness campaigns, and structured referral pathways to professional healthcare services.
♦️ *IMPROVING SANITATION AND HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS:* To advocate for cleaner, safer, and, more hygienic campus spaces through improved sanitation facilities, regular monitoring systems, and student-led hygiene initiatives.
With a strong commitment to service, compassion, and action, Nyima Sanyang represents the kind of leadership that prioritizes both the wellbeing and dignity of every student.
