Ayeshah Harun Jammeh

Welcome to my channel! My name is Isatou Jammeh but I go by Ayesha Harun Jammeh, a social worker, human rights advocate, and entrepreneur from The Gambia – the Smiling Coast of Africa. My work focuses on transitional justice, human rights, and community empowerment, both nationally and internationally. Over the years, I have been actively involved in initiatives supporting victims of human rights violations, contributing to conversations and programs that promote truth, accountability, healing, and justice in post-conflict societies. My experience spans working with civil society organizations, engaging with victims’ communities, and participating in regional and international dialogues on transitional justice and accountability for international crimes. I believe that justice, dialogue, and empowered communities are key to building stronger democracies and peaceful societies.
