Particular acknowledgement and appreciation goes to all the enumerators, field workers, team leaders and data processors for their tireless efforts and sacrifice in collecting quality data in a challenging, fast paced and resource limited environment. Special acknowledgement goes to the refugee and host families, refugee leaders, community development workers and community leaders for their patience, commitment and kindness in creating a work friendly environment and enabling a smooth realisation of this assessment.

Katim has been a true professional and devout humanitarian worker who was passionately committed to the plight of Casamance Refugees throughout the period of 2006 – 2013. May his soul rest in eternal peace. 2 Table of Contents Page Acknowledgements 2 Acronyms 4 List of Tables and Charts 5 Executive Summary 7 1. Introduction 12 2. Background and Rationale 14 3.

Despite its small size and population, it was able to establish itself as a func- tioning parliamentary democracy, a status it retained for nearly 30 years. The Gambia thus avoided the common fate of other African countries, which soon fell under authoritarian single-party rule or experienced military coups. In addi- tion, its enviable political stability, together with modest economic success, enabled it to avoid remaining under British domination or being absorbed by its larger French-speaking neighbor, Senegal. It was also able to defeat an attempted coup d’état in July 1981, but, ironically, when other African states were returning to democratic government, Gambian democracy finally suc- Historical Dictionary of Dictionary Historical cumbed to a military coup on 22 July 1994.
