SIERRA LEONE: Country at a Crossroads: Challenges Facing Young People in Sierra Leone Six Years after the War

Submitted by crinadmin on

This report is based on the Women’s Commission for Refugee Women and Children’s February 2008 visit to Sierra Leone to look at young people’s needs, what services appear to be working and what more is needed.

Country at a Crossroads highlights how six years after the war, young people in Sierra Leone continue to lack opportunities and face barriers to achieving quality education. The report includes recommendations to increase attention and support for young people and includes examples of innovative projects visited.
