Banjul - Post Report Question and Answers

Are there problems with ethnic, race/racial minorities or religious prejudices? Gender equality?

The Gambia is very tolerant when it comes to various racial and religious groups. It could easily serve as a model for religious tolerance (at least in the greater Banjul area). Further up-country is said to be more conservative. Gender prejudices still exist, but are not as overt as some places. - Jun 2013
