Sierra Leone’s Vice President, Mohamed Juldeh Jalloh has re-echoed President Bio’s vision to deliver on the five big game changers in the country at the launch of the Sierra Leone Human Capital Review.

The Sierra Leone Human Capital Review: Maximising Human Potential for Resilience and Inclusive Development was published by the World Bank seeks to provide critical insights into the country’s efforts to foster human capital development and economic growth. The report examines the current state of health, education, and social protection systems in the country and offers recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of human capital investments.

The review clearly outlined the progress that Sierra Leone has made in “improving key human development indicators in recent years” specifically in education, health, women’s empowerment and social protection amidst a very challenging economic situation caused by COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war.

Vice Presidnet Jalloh noted that, the Government of Sierra Leone will continue to expand investment in girls’ education, job creation for young people and maternal and infant health, adding that, for the next five years, President Bio’s BIG FIVE GAME CHANGERS are critical in order to build the ecosystem.

“I commend the @WorldBankAfrica for such an in-depth and analytical review, which I qualify as a call for action” he stated

The Sierra Leone Human Capital Review is part of the World Bank’s broader commitment to supporting countries in their efforts to build strong human capital as a foundation for inclusive growth. This is in line with WBG’s vision of creating a world free of poverty on a livable planet. The report’s findings will serve as a valuable resource for policymakers, development partners, and stakeholders working towards a prosperous future for Sierra Leone.
