BRAC Sierra Leone

We follow an integrated approach to development across 12 districts of Sierra Leone. We operate 160 adolescent clubs to raise awareness and provide a safe space for girls. We also provide microloans and enterprise loans to women and men to help them engage in income generating activities. In 2017, we conducted research to better understand our microfinance clients and provide client-specific services to different target groups. Our microfinance programme was recognised by The World Bank’s Global Delivery Initiative, which published a report titled “Financial Inclusion and Resilience: How BRAC’s Microfinance Program Recovered from the West Africa Ebola Crisis”.
