Africa-Press<\/a> – Sierra-Leone<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The 2020 UN Country Annual Report on the progress achieved by Sierra Leone in its first implementation year of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSCDF) 2020-2023, has been published this week.<\/p>\n

The report shows the level of progress Sierra Leone has made in achieving the four results areas of the UNSDCF and the overall development and operational activities of the UNCT Sierra Leone.<\/p>\n

The UNSDCF is the roadmap towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Sierra Leone. It is aligned with Sierra Leone\u2019s development priorities set out in the government\u2019s Medium-Term National Development Plan (MTNDP) 2019-2023.<\/p>\n

According to the UN, \u201cthe report is, therefore, a collective effort by the UN system in Sierra Leone, comprising of 21 UN agencies to ensure that no one is left behind while delivering as One UN\u201d.<\/p>\n

Writing in the Report\u2019s foreword, Babatunde A. Ahonsi, United Nations Resident Coordinator in Sierra Leone, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of the United Nations Country Team (UNCT) in Sierra Leone, I am pleased to present to you the 2020 UN Country Annual Results Report on the progress made during the first implementation year of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSCDF) 2020-2023. The report shows the good progress we have made on the four results areas of the UNSDCF, despite the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe UNSDCF is our roadmap towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Sierra Leone and it is aligned with Sierra Leone\u2019s development priorities set out in the Medium-Term National Development Plan (MTNDP) 2019-2023. This report is, therefore, a collective effort by the UN system in Sierra Leone, comprising of 21 UN agencies to ensure that no one is left behind while delivering as One UN.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to take this opportunity to thank the Government of Sierra Leone (GoSL) for its commitment towards the SDGs and the alignment of the national development efforts with Agenda 2030 and the African Union\u2019s Agenda 2063. Human capital development, the heart of the MTNDP, fully aligns with the SDGs.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoSL\u2019s extensive collaboration and support to implement the strategic priorities set out in the UNSDCF made it possible for us to deliver 83 percent of our activities, despite the impact of COVID-19 on our socio-economic and political environment. On behalf of the Government, the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development continues to support the UN family in Sierra Leone and co-chairs the Joint Steering Committee of the UNSDCF.<\/p>\n

\u201cI appreciate our development partners for the strengthened relationships that have resulted in a significant increase in overall funding and a diversified funding base. Contributions to UN Sierra Leone particularly towards the attainment of SDGs 2 (Zero Hunger) and 3 (Good Health and Well-being) especially during the COVID-19 pandemic has not waned. This was demonstrated with the support the UNCT received for the implementation of the UNSDCF, the UN COVID-19 Socio-economic Response Plan, and the Sierra Leone Humanitarian Response Plan. Continued support from development partners, particularly on activities directed to the most vulnerable groups\u2014women and girls, children, and persons with disability is commended.<\/p>\n

\u201cFinally, I wish to note the UN\u2019s growing engagement with civil society in Sierra Leone as evidenced in the development of the 2020 update to the Common Country Analysis, the socio-economic impact assessments of COVID-19, and active participation in the COVID-19 responses. CSOs\u2019 in-depth and granular understanding of the context of Sierra Leone has helped the UNCT with nuanced insights on emerging issues on the ground.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
