Last update: an hour ago

Sanitation & Water Security: Sierra Leone marked African Day with a focus on “Assuring Sustainable Water Availability and Safe Sanitation Systems,” with officials linking water and sanitation to human capital and Agenda 2063. World Environment Day Prep: The EPA-SL announced a week-long World Environment Day 2026 programme under “Climate Action,” including a youth excursion, a “Green Run” in Freetown, and coastal clean-up and anti-illegal sand mining engagements in Lakka and Sussex. Coastal Nature & Livelihoods: A new study in Gola Rainforest National Park suggests REDD+ carbon financing can also support biodiversity, while separate reporting highlights mangrove loss threatening oyster harvesters along Sierra Leone’s coast. Illegal Mining Crackdown: EPA-SL raided illegal riverbed mining along the Rokel River during dam maintenance, destroying pumps, arresting an excavator operator, and involving local chiefs in follow-up patrols. Clean Energy for Rural Businesses: Geres launched a four-year rural clean energy project (E4B) to expand renewable electricity for small businesses and cooperatives, targeting women and youth entrepreneurs. Ebola Funding & Risk: Multiple reports warn the latest Ebola outbreak in Central/East Africa is spreading fast amid funding and staffing shortfalls, raising concerns for fragile health systems.
