This week we share news from #MMAct Agora in Tamale and Savelugu On Zaa Radio, discussions from Tamale and Savelugu Agoras were brought to a wider audience; highlighting how internal migration can lead to risky decisions. Verify every information before taking action. #MMAct

In Tamale and Savelugu, young people shared how movement often begins from rural areas to cities like Tamale and Accra before any attempt to travel abroad. Many migration decisions are influenced by peers on-social media with false information. Verify all migration information

As we launch our Community Agora across The Gambia, we will engage with a cross section of society, including migrant returnees, community leaders, youth, and media professionals. Together, we aim to foster open dialogue on migration reporting.
