Story: During a reporting trip to Farafenni, located in the North Bank Region of The Gambia, I met Fatima Gassama and her team of children under the age of 18, who were working on the women’s farmlands. I decided to capture their unique story about how they assist women who find it challenging to bend down and work on their farms. The children get paid by the women once the job is completed. I believe it will be interesting for people to see the contributions our children are making to the agricultural sector.
