Led by the visionary Hon.

This is no mere review; it\u2019s a continental blueprint for unity, resilience, and prosperity. The APRM Second-Generation Review is a national moment of reflection. It brings communities together to assess how we are doing, what we have achieved, and where we can improve. By listening to each other, we strengthen our systems, build trust, and shape a better future for everyone. Together We Reflect. Together We Grow. Every Voice Matters. Every Story Counts. Take part in the conversation. Share your experiences. Be part of building a stronger Sierra Leone for all by listening, learning, and improving The APRM Way. End Summary.<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Leone\u2019s Trailblazing Commitment to APRM: From Accession to Continental Vanguard<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Leone\u2019s embrace of the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) in 2004 was no ordinary step; it was a seismic declaration of intent to lead Africa\u2019s governance renaissance. Emerging from the ashes of a devastating civil war (1991\u20132002), the nation transformed the APRM from a diagnostic tool into a powerhouse of reform, setting benchmarks that resonate across the continent.<\/p>\n<p>By 2022, under the dynamic leadership of H.E. President Julius Maada Bio, Sierra Leone ascended to the Chairmanship of the APRM Heads of State and Government Forum, succeeding South Africa\u2019s Cyril Ramaphosa. This honor, bestowed at the AU Ordinary Session in Addis Ababa, catapulted Sierra Leone into a role of unparalleled influence, where President Bio championed peer learning, citizen-centric policies, and institutional innovation for all 42 member states.<\/p>\n<p>The country\u2019s APRM legacy is etched in milestones of audacious achievement. The foundational Country Review in 2012 laid the groundwork for post-conflict renewal, while the 2020 Targeted Review on COVID-19 and Health Governance showcased Sierra Leone\u2019s crisis leadership, influencing AU-wide health strategies.<\/p>\n<p>The 2023 Targeted Review on Unconstitutional Changes of Government, peer-reviewed at the APR Forum, fortified democratic safeguards, earning accolades for its foresight. These triumphs, amplified by the unyielding political will of President Bio, have positioned Sierra Leone not as a participant but as a continental architect, bridging local realities with Agenda 2063\u2019s vision of a prosperous, united Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The Presidential Directive: A Strategic Masterstroke for Governance Under MoPED<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of Sierra Leone\u2019s APRM ascent lies the June 19, 2025, Presidential Directive, a bold, visionary stroke by President Bio repositioning the APRM National Secretariat under MoPED. This recalibration, executed with surgical precision, fused governance scrutiny with economic planning, unleashing a synergy that propels the Second-Generation Review into uncharted heights of impact. Led by the formidable Hon. Kenye Barlay as APRM Focal Point and Minister, the Secretariat now operates as a governance powerhouse, channeling NPoA reforms into MTNDP priorities like inclusive growth and resilience.<\/p>\n<p>This directive\u2019s genius is amplified by an unparalleled coalition of leadership: Chief Minister Dr. David Moinina Sengeh\u2019s dynamism of cross-ministerial alignment with radical precision and clarity; Dr. Emanuel Gaima\u2019s unwavering advocacy for administrative streamlining; Development Secretary Ambrose James\u2019s masterful resource mobilization, and Executive Secretary Mohamed Sheriff\u2019s visionary leadership and transformation.<\/p>\n<p>Together, they embody a political and administrative will that transforms challenges into triumphs, ensuring the review is not a ritual but a revolution, driving decentralization, anti-corruption, and community empowerment with relentless fervor.<\/p>\n<p>Igniting the Second-Generation Review: Communities United for Transformative Reform<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Leone\u2019s Second-Generation Review, ignited in February 2024, is a clarion call to collective introspection, a careful assessment of progress since 2012, confronting emerging threats like climate shocks and inequality with unflinching resolve.<\/p>\n<p>Coordinated by the APRM National Secretariat under Article 19 of the APRM Statute, the review harnesses 16 district Popularization Committees, blending grassroots wisdom with technical rigor. From Kono\u2019s resilient health forums to Makeni\u2019s economic roundtables, this process mobilizes 5,000+ stakeholders, embedding five thematic pillars, including Democracy and Political Governance, Economic Governance and Management, Corporate Governance, Socio-Economic Development, and State Resilience to Shocks and Natural Disasters, into the national fabric.<\/p>\n<p>The review\u2019s genius lies in its hyper-local innovation: youth engagement channeling Gen Z insights, women\u2019s roundtables dismantling gender barriers, and diaspora bridges repatriating global expertise. Partnerships with universities amplify academic firepower, while cultural events featuring Temne and Mende storytelling and Krio drama make governance relatable, bridging urban skyscrapers and rural villages.<\/p>\n<p>Innovation Unleashed: Sierra Leone\u2019s Digital Frontier in Governance<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Leone isn\u2019t just reviewing, it\u2019s reinventing. The Secretariat\u2019s groundbreaking multilingual website (https:\/\/aprm.gov.sl\/) and the first-ever APRM inaugural Annual Report under Executive Secretary Mohamed Sheshu Sheriff herald a digital dawn, with AI-driven dashboards tracking NPoA metrics in real-time. Community scorecards, powered by mobile apps, empower citizens to rate services, while SMS hotlines democratize feedback, reaching 1 million users in months.<\/p>\n<p>This tech-savvy pivot, fortified by the Presidential Directive, slashes data gaps by 40%, positioning Sierra Leone as Africa\u2019s governance innovator, where tradition meets tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Overcoming Challenges: Sierra Leone\u2019s Unyielding Resolve<\/p>\n<p>No journey is without hurdles, yet Sierra Leone confronts them with characteristic grit. Data silos and awareness gaps in remote areas? Tackled by rallying CSOs and media. Coordination frictions? Resolved through MoPED\u2019s inter-ministerial hubs, backed by Chief Minister Sengeh\u2019s orchestration. With Dr. Gaima\u2019s administrative wizardry and Ambrose James\u2019s resource wizardry, these challenges fuel acceleration, not stagnation, exemplifying the nation\u2019s unbreakable spirit.<\/p>\n<p>A Continental Beacon: Sierra Leone\u2019s APRM Legacy Illuminates Africa<\/p>\n<p>Sierra Leone\u2019s APRM saga is Africa\u2019s inspiration, a narrative of triumph where President Bio\u2019s Chairmanship ignited reforms rippling from Addis to the Atlantic. As we gear up for the 2026 peer review, our Second-Generation Review, fueled by Barlay\u2019s strategic helm and oversight, Gaima\u2019s leadership, and James\u2019s development drive, redefines excellence. It\u2019s a testament: when political will converges with innovation, nations don\u2019t just participate, they pioneer.<\/p>\n<p>Comment: Sierra Leone\u2019s APRM odyssey is a continental masterclass in audacious reform and inclusive triumph. From Bio\u2019s Chairmanship catalyzing 42 states to Barlay\u2019s MoPED fusion birthing a governance dynamo, the nation weaves peer learning into policy gold. With Gaima\u2019s administrative alchemy and James\u2019s resource mastery, it turns challenges into catalysts, democratizing reports through digital wizardry and grassroots symphonies.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t a review, it\u2019s renaissance, a blueprint for Africa\u2019s bold leap toward equitable, resilient futures.
