Youths of the Gambia are enthusiastic about working for a better country. A clear manifestation of this is the number of youth organisations that a springing up from every point in the country.

GLOBAL HANDS PUBLISHING

Global Hands Publishing has been set up to provide the intellectual muscle to the development hands of our organisation. It seeks to publish a range of publications including poetry, novels and children's books. These publications are geared towards adding critical voices, especially southern perspectives, to the development and globalisation debate.

In the Gambia, young minds have been coming up with a lot of spectacular works that could be employed in the developmental scheme of our country to bring awareness to what is going on in the world especially in our midst. Opinions of the youths matter a lot if we are looking forward to develop and writing down their thoughts in the form of poems, stories etc is a starting point to spread the message of a positive change.

 

INNOCENT QUESTIONS

Innocent questions is the recently published book by Global Hands and its author, Honorable Dr. Momodou Sallah, Chairman Board of Directors of Global Hands, has combined a collection of poems written over a range of time since he was in his tender ages to this moment and he has seen it necessary to share it with people. 
                                      " Sallah sees all struggles in a uniform and constant parallel..... In a world of concentrated wealth and mass poverty...
                                        He is concerned above all about the voiceless and the powerless... They are metaphor, the imaginary, the theme 
                                        and point of view of his poetry. They are his poetry."
                                            - Foday Samateh, writer and literary critic.

 This is a poem by one of the members of Global Hands Gambia for Global Hands in general


 GLOBAL HANDS GAMBIA


Globally united under the same banner

We are the core factor of change, its most important strata

Global Hands Gambia you are a beloved change maker

Functioning as a forest, a natural resource and a failure breaker

You build capacities, taught people how to make end meet on their own

Global Hands Gambia, for Gambians, you are proudly our own

Your birth vanquished the tyrant ruler, Lord hardship

Reinstating on the throne, King change

Sacked the unpatriotic abstract soldiers of the global force

putting your trust in the grass root change cooks who open doors

to the fulfillment of your objectives at a global scale with a genuine cause.......
