    Food insecurity and poverty affects more than half of the population of Sierra Leone. Many Sierra Leoneans are farmers and small-scale producers, but this activity does not allow them to have a decent standard of living that guarantees their basic well-being. Increasing investment in agriculture and rural development is essential to make agriculture a viable source of livelihoods and eliminate poverty and hunger in the country. This brochure aims at informing producer and civil society organizations about key aspects of “responsible agricultural investment” as well as its activities in the country. This work is supported by Germany and the Flexible Funding Mechanism resource partners.

    Achieving the first two Sustainable Development Goals in Sierra Leone, the eradication of poverty and hunger by 2030, requires an additional USD 1.1 billion annual investment. Of that, more than 62 percent should target agriculture and rural development. It is important to stress that not only more investments are required, but better investments. Responsible investments in agriculture and food systems contribute to sustainable development, enhance food security and nutrition and respect human rights. FAO empowers key stakeholders in Sierra Leone to create an enabling environment for responsible investment in agriculture and food systems. This brochure presents the main interventions for key stakeholders: learning programmes for policy makers and technical government staff; capacity development events for civil society and producer organizations; and multi-stakeholder policy dialogue events. This work is supported by Germany.
