The Generation for Modernity and Development (GMD; French: Génération pour la modernité et le développement), officially known as the Generation for Modernity and Development - Building Together (French: Génération pour la modernité et le développement - Bâtir ensemble) is a political coalition in Guinea. It is the current ruling party of Guinea led by Mamady Doumbouya,[citation needed] the current president of Guinea who seized power in the 2021 Guinean coup d'état.
History
[edit]Mamady Doumbouya is a Guinean general who ousted long-time president Alpha Condé from power in the 2021 Guinean coup d'état, with Doumbouya being sworn in as interim president on 1 October 2021.
The Generation for Modernity and Development was founded in 2025[1][failed verification] to support Doumbouya's presidential campaign at the 2025 presidential elections.[2] Elections for the National Assembly were held in 2026, where GMD candidates secured an overwhelming majority.[3] During both elections, there were widespread allegations of electoral interference favoring Doumbouya, with opposition candidates being barred from running, intimidated, and arrested.[4] Despite this, these elections were officially meant to provide a transition to civilian power following the coup.[5]
