Develop Africa Sierra Leone (DASL) participated in the Parliament Open Day during the National NGO Week celebrations, an important event designed to strengthen collaboration between Parliament and the NGO community.
The event aimed to provide NGOs with a deeper understanding of Parliament’s oversight role, particularly in ensuring that development interventions effectively reach the intended beneficiaries across Sierra Leone.
Representing Develop Africa at the event was Program Manager Mr. Emeka K., pictured above on the right.
The Vice President of Sierra Leone served as the keynote speaker and expressed appreciation for the important work carried out by NGOs throughout the country. In his remarks, he acknowledged the significant contributions NGOs make in areas such as education, healthcare, and community development, and emphasized the government’s interest in continuing strong partnerships with civil society organizations.
The Parliament Open Day provided a valuable platform for dialogue between government leaders and the NGO community. Discussions focused on transparency, accountability, and collaboration, all of which are essential for ensuring that development programs have a meaningful and lasting impact.
Develop Africa’s participation reflects its ongoing commitment to working collaboratively with government institutions, civil society partners, and local communities to support sustainable development and improve opportunities for people across Sierra Leone.
