Sierra Leone Ambassador to Ethiopia, Harold Bundu Saffa, alongside Brigadier General Abu Bakarr Conteh, Defence Attaché, has arrived in Cairo, Egypt to participate in a four-day meeting addressing the “Peace, Security, and Development Nexus in Africa: “Bridging Gaps Between Policy and Practice.”
This high-level dialogue marks a significant occasion as Africa celebrates the 20th anniversary of the African Union (AU) Peace and Security Council. The primary focus of the gathering is to confront the challenges of transforming policy into effective action, particularly concerning peace and development initiatives on the continent.
Key objectives of the meeting include facilitating robust discussions among AU PSC members, policymakers, and critical stakeholders. By addressing the gap between policy advocacy and on-the-ground practices, participants aim to enhance community resilience, ease the adverse effects of cyclical shocks, and encourage paths toward sustainable peace and development across Africa.
The engagement promises to serve as a crucial platform for sharing insights and experiences that can lead to actionable recommendations and strategies for policymakers. As nations grapple with various security and development challenges, dialogues like these are essential in fostering collective efforts toward lasting peace.
Ambassador Saffa and Brigadier General Conteh’s attendance symbolizes Sierra Leone’s commitment to contributing to regional security and development dialogues. Further updates are expected as the meeting unfolds over the coming days. Compose Message
