Digital Education for Resilience: Imagine Worldwide says Sierra Leone has launched 278 tech-enabled schools in six months and aims for 203 more by year-end to reach 751, with plans for locally owned platforms. Youth Grants for Local Governance: Fifteen chiefdom youth councils received EU-funded YAGGS grants to run self-led livelihood, entrepreneurship, digital and community initiatives. Mining and Environment Watch: President Bio reported a gold export surge (+410.6% in H1 2026) while warning diversification is urgent as diamonds and other minerals declined.
