AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Protected Areas Enforcement: NPAA continues demolitions at Aberdeen Creek in the Sierra Leone River Estuary, a Ramsar wetland, using an excavator plus police and military support to stop harmful encroachment and restore the ecosystem. Climate Action for Youth: Freetown Mayor Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr launched Bloomberg Youth Climate Action Fund 2.0, backing youth-led projects on tree planting, recycling and composting across Sierra Leone’s participating cities. Nature-Based Food Resilience: MoECC and partners kick off a Global Environment Facility project under the Food System Resilience Programme, pushing nature-based approaches to strengthen farmers’ livelihoods and the Feed Salone agenda. Energy Costs at Home: Data shows Sierra Leone has Africa’s most expensive residential electricity tariff at 22.8 US cents per kWh, squeezing households already facing rising living costs. International Support Under Pressure: UK Aid cuts threaten Sierra Leone’s health gains, with steep drops in bilateral assistance raising concerns for maternal and child health and disease-control programmes. Climate Leadership Award: Commonwealth Trust 100 Young Leaders Award goes to Sierra Leonean climate advocate Komrabai Dumbuya for climate-smart agriculture and sustainable livelihoods work. Disaster Lessons Questioned: A renewed look at the August 14 mudslide tragedy asks whether Sierra Leone has truly learned—calling for stronger land-use enforcement, drainage, waste management and early warning.
