Action contre la Faim has been working continuously in Sierra Leone since 1991. The organization is well recognized as a key actor in both humanitarian/emergency response (civil war, Ebola virus epidemic 2014-2016, COVID-19 pandemic) and now in a more development setting. ACF currently plays a strong role in Health System Strengthening, working on national level policies and plans, building capacities national and district level to deliver improved services. Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation has also become a central element of ACF interventions in country. Due to Sierra Leone’s vulnerability to climate change, seen through changing rain patterns and increasing incidence of major floods and landslides, ACF works to increase local community resilience to climate related shocks through dissemination of knowledge related to climate resilient agricultural practices and sustainable land management, and increased access to meteorological information.

Due to repeated shocks, such as Ebola, COVID-19, and the war in Ukraine, food insecurity and poverty are increasing. Additionally, almost 1 in 3 children under 5 suffer from chronic malnutrition.
