2024 Senegal Elections
POLITICAL EDUCATION
GPAM Internal Education Session
Session Information
Date: March 27, 2024
Presenter: Yassine Fall (current Minister of Foreign Affairs, Senegal)
After multiple attempts to manipulate constitutional and legal frameworks to remain in power, the Senegalese people refused, organized and took to task Senegal’s legal and electoral systems to oust the outgoing regime led by Macky Sall. To understand the processes and ideas that led to the election of formerly incarcerated opposition leader Bassirou Diomaye Faye, GPAM hosted Yassine Fall, a member of Patriotes africains du Sénégal pour le travail, l’éthique et la fraternité (Patriots of Senegal for Work, Ethics, and Fraternity, or PASTEF).
Shortly following this session, Yassine Fall was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs.
