My name is Cherno Abdourahman Jallow, and I’m from The Gambia. I work in the tourism industry at a foreign exchange bureau in Senegambia, where I meet people from all around the world every day. This has helped me learn the importance of respect, understanding, and peace between people of different backgrounds.

Outside of work, I’m passionate about youth empowerment and community growth. I enjoy football because it teaches teamwork and unity, and I try to bring that same spirit into daily life — encouraging my friends and younger people around me to stay positive, focused, and peaceful.

My goal is to represent my country by showing that young Gambians can lead with kindness, responsibility, and hope. Joining the Global Peace Chain would give me the opportunity to learn more about leadership, connect with other young changemakers, and work together to promote peace and harmony in our communities.
