Where we do it

Sierra Leone, West Africa

• Former British colony
• 5.7M people (UN 2006)
• 20 tribes
•  Nation with beautiful beaches, forests,  mountains, fertile soil, and many mineral deposits

 

 

 

 

 

 

But:

• One of the poorest  countries in the world
• Low levels of literacy
• Poor infrastructure  (roads, water and electricity supply)
• An education system struggling to recover from many years of neglect
