Why it matters

Delivered Gambia's democratic transition; truth commission (TRRC) documented Jammeh-era crimes; tourism and infrastructure recovered.
Tourism rebounded; growth ~5-6%; groundnut and remittance economy remains fragile and narrow.
Freedoms restored after Jammeh; youth still emigrate via the 'backway' for lack of jobs.
Positions Gambia as the small democracy that beat a dictator — a West African transition showcase.
