AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Renewable Power Push: The World Bank has approved US$60m for Sierra Leone to expand electricity access through clean, distributed renewables—solar home systems and mini-grids—aimed at reaching rural and underserved communities, with plans to mobilize more private investment and power millions. Coastal Rights Under Pressure: Sierra Leone’s Human Rights Commission warns that worsening environmental degradation and weak governance are undermining coastal fishing communities’ livelihoods, with gaps in fisheries law awareness, coordination, and discrimination against small-scale fishers. Maritime Security for a Healthier Blue Economy: The EU has donated two new RHIB patrol boats and forensic kits to Sierra Leone’s Navy to strengthen surveillance against illegal fishing and trafficking along the coast. Heat Hits the Vulnerable: A new report using Freetown data flags extreme heat as a growing economic threat, hitting women in informal work hardest and draining city productivity. Energy Compact Momentum: Sierra Leone’s Ministry of Energy links the financing to Mission 300 and the National Energy Compact, stressing faster off-grid rollout where grid extension is difficult. Sports Infrastructure Watch: Parliament’s sports committee inspected rehabilitation at Siaka Stevens National Stadium, including drainage upgrades and new floodlights, as contractors continue work.
