Sierra Leone 50 years of independence in West Africa With a population of 5.8 million, coastal Sierra Leone – a name that comes from the Portuguese for “Lion Mountainsâ€? – achieved independence from Great Britain in 1961. As a diamond and mineral rich country, it also suffered 11 years of civil war ending in 2002; Bangladeshi peacekeepers created such a good impression that many Sierra Leoneans know a little "ANGLA Ă–"2!#Ă–OPENEDĂ–ITSĂ–OFĂ™CESĂ–HEREĂ–INĂ– Ă–ANDĂ– by the end of 2011 it reached over 700,000 Sierra ,EONEANSĂ–WITHĂ–ACTIVITIESĂ–INĂ–MICROĂ™NANCE Ă–AGRICULTURE Ă– livestock, poultry, health and legal services. What started out in 1972 in a remote village of Bangladesh as a limited relief operation, turned into the largest development organisation in the world. Of major non-governmental organisations, BRAC is one of the few based in the global south. Today, BRAC is a development success story, spreading solutions born in Bangladesh to 10 other countries around the world – a global leader in creating opportunity for the world’s poor. Organising the poor using communities’ own human and material resources, it catalyzes lasting change, creating an ecosystem in which the poor have the chance to seize control of their own lives. We do this with a holistic development approach geared toward inclusion, using TOOLSĂ–LIKEĂ–MICROĂ™NANCE Ă–EDUCATION Ă–HEALTHCARE Ă–LEGALĂ– services, community empowerment and more. Our work now touches the lives of an estimated 126 million people, with staff and BRAC-trained entrepreneurs numbering in the hundreds of thousands – a global movement bringing change to 10 countries in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, with operations in our 11th country, Philippines, being launched in 2012.

Chairperson’s Statement
It gives me great pleasure to present the ANNUALÖREPORTÖANDÖTHEÖAUDITEDÖÙNANCIALÖ statements for the year ended 31 December 2011. Sierra Leone suffers from inequality in income distribution. While the country possesses substantial mineral, agricultural ANDÖÙSHERYÖRESOURCES ÖITSÖPHYSICALÖ and social infrastructure has yet to recover from the civil war, and social disorder continues to hamper economic development. Nearly half of the workingage population engages in subsistence agriculture. The fate of the economy depends upon the maintenance of peace within the country and the continued receipt of substantial aid from abroad, which is essential to offset the severe trade imbalance and to supplement government revenues. As of 2011, 76 per cent of the population survive on less than USD 2 per day. We provide microloans to disadvantaged women, helping them engage in income generating activities and in the long run to improve their economic condition. In 2011, we disbursed USD 4.3 million among 21,308 borrowers who are actively engaged in small enterprises and trades. Through our agriculture programme, small and marginal women farmers receive inputs and training in farming technology to improve their production.

in Africa and London Mining Company, farmers in nine villages are producing crops to address chronic food insecurity. In 2011, our community health promoters visited over half a million families in an effort to improve the health conditions of the rural communities with essential health care package. We have also signed a partnership agreement with World Food Programme to support their school and supplementary feeding programme. The purpose of the programme is to increase attendance in schools, and to reduce NUTRITIONÖDEÙCIENCYÖAMONGÖTHEÖCHILDRENÖ and vulnerable people such as HIV and TB patients. Our human rights and legal programme was introduced in Sierra Leone in 2010 with the aim to protect and promote human rights through legal empowerment, especially for the poor and marginalised people in the country. Through our legal literacy classes women are learning about claiming their rights, as well as reducing disputes in their community and amongst themselves with the aid of paralegals. So far we have reached over 200,000 people with our human rights services in over 1,000 villages. Looking ahead to 2012 BRAC will increase its range of health programmes in Sierra Leone to include a focus on the sixth Millennium Development Goal, which seeks to combat malaria, TB and non-communicable diseases. As a sub-
recipient of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, we will start working on disease reduction strategies in collaboration with the government of Sierra Leone and Catholic Relief Services covering three districts of the Western Area (Freetown), Kenema and Tonkolili. I would like to take this opportunity to commend our team in Sierra Leone who have worked with enduring commitment to make use of every opportunity that has come BRAC’s way. The quality of our performance in Sierra Leone is attributed to this remarkably competent team and their knowledge and skills. I extend my sincere thanks to the members of the governing body, whose leadership and foresight has steered the organisation to success. I thank the government and development partners in Sierra Leone for their continued support as we strive to create greater value in our services to contribute towards the progress and prosperity of Sierra Leone.

Assisting farmers in Sierra Leone BRAC launched its agriculture programme in Sierra Leone in 2008. Agriculture is a SIGNIÙCANTÖPARTÖOFÖTHEÖCOUNTRYlSÖECONOMY Ö accounting for 58 per cent of the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Nearly two-thirds of the population of Sierra Leone are involved in subsistence agriculture, but while 74 per cent of total land area is potentially cultivable only 34 per cent of fertile land is used, leaving ample opportunity for the sector to be developed. BRAC’s agriculture programme addresses the problem of poor crop productivity in Sierra Leone with the aim of improving the EFÙCIENCYÖANDÖMANAGEMENTÖOFÖSMALLÖTOÖ medium farm enterprises.

Growth in 2011 In 2011, BRAC added two new programmes to its agriculture activities with funding from the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) and London Mining Company. The AGRA-funded project “Improving livelihoods of smallholder farmers through validation and dissemination of improved agriculture technologies and distribution of improved seedsâ€? makes use of BRAC’s agriculture programme infrastructure. To achieve its objectives, programme activities include the production of CERTIĂ™EDĂ–SEEDĂ–ATĂ–THEĂ–"2!#Ă–SEEDĂ–FARM Ă–THEĂ– development of 160 demonstration plots, ORGANISINGĂ–Ă™ELDĂ–DAYS Ă–ANDĂ–THEĂ–DISTRIBUTIONĂ– of seed and other agro-inputs by CAPs. The London Mining Company project provides funding to improve the livelihoods of farmers in nine villages
(Katic, Rogbaneh, Konta, Gbomblimba, Chendata, Magbenthe, Maforki, Magberie and Thofayim). Participants are resettled farmers who have been affected by London Mining Company activities. The programme consists of two phases, enabling farmers to produce crops throughout the year: phase one focuses on inputs and training for upland cultivation in the rainy season, while phase two focuses on training for farmers on key techniques in lowland and vegetable cultivation. In 2011, BRAC Sierra Leone’s agriculture programme reached a population of 14,418, and 189 CAPs and 2,403 model farmers received training. The programme produced eight metric tonnes of seed, and distributed 13 metric tonnes of seeds and 15 metric tonnes of fertiliser. A total of 80 demonstration plots and 285 kitchen gardens were established.

FATU KANGO: Changing lives through farming
“I feel proud to work with BRAC as a leader, and of course, I’m very thankful to them for giving me the opportunity to serve my community. I want to expand my land, grow more vegetables, and I know BRAC will provide me with the support I need.” Fatu Kango lives in the village of Konta in the Port Loko District in northern Sierra Leone. Before joining BRAC, she was earning an income of SLL 10,00012,000 per month (USD 2-3), which was not enough to sustain her family. In her extended family of 18, only three people were earning a living. The income the family generated only allowed them to live at a basic subsistence level. Fatu was deeply unhappy because she was unable to pay for her children’s education.
Fatu became interested in working for BRAC after she mobilised the women in her community and participated in a meeting hosted by BRAC’s agriculture programme. After discussions with the community leader, she received land to start her vegetable production. Fatu participated in the various training programmes on vegetable production offered by BRAC, and soon after she started gardening with the assistance of BRAC staff under the London Mining project. She adopted improved technologies in producing vegetables, such as line sowing, applying the correct dosage of fertiliser, irrigating, and timely weeding. On her vegetable farm, she produces okra, cucumber, krin-krin, green amaranth and hot pepper. As of now, Fatu has sold okra and cucumber from her garden, and the other vegetables will also be sold once they are ready. From this business venture, she is earning a monthly income of SLL 40,00050,000 (USD 9-11), almost three times the amount she was making before joining the BRAC programme. Now she is able to
send her children to school and can also spend more on healthcare and food for her family. As a community leader, Fatu encouraged others to also build a better life for themselves by establishing their own vegetable gardens. The 23 women in her community who took her advice now also earn an increased income from their gardens.

BRAC Programmes
Health Working in eight countries, BRAC’s health programmes promote sustainable and accessible healthcare for the poor in collaboration with both the state and private healthcare sectors. Working in their own slums and villages, BRAC’s ‘army’ of self-employed community health promoters helps whole communities stay healthy, with a groundbreaking door-to-door approach. These workers create a cost-effective bridge between underserved poor communities and formal healthcare systems. BRAC also organises health meetings to encourage an exchange of knowledge, thus empowering people to take care of themselves, their families and neighbours.
Improving essential health care Sierra Leone, with a population of over six million, only has 2,435 healthcare professionals. There are only 134 physicians covering the entire country. The healthcare system is particularly poor at the community level, which makes it impossible for many people to have access to the care they need, especially in rural areas that lack public transportation. Taking these factors into consideration, BRAC Sierra Leone started implementing the essential healthcare programme in October 2008. The objective was to improve the general health status of poor women and their families by providing access to affordable primary healthcare services. Following its expansion in 2010, the health programme is now being implemented in 20 branches, covering three districts. The programme focuses on education on health, nutrition, family planning, immunisation, safe water and sanitation,
hygiene, tuberculosis, malaria, HIV/AIDS, pregnancy-related care, prevention of and care for acute respiratory infections and pneumonia, and basic curative care. In order to address the lack of diagnostic facilities in the country, BRAC opened ITSÖÙRSTÖHEALTHÖANDÖDIAGNOSTICÖCENTREÖINÖ Freetown in 2010. To ensure comprehensive coverage of its basic healthcare service provision, BRAC recruited and trained women from BRAC 3IERRAÖ,EONElSÖMICROÙNANCEÖGROUPSÖTOÖ become community health promoters (CHPs). The CHPs are the backbone of the health programme, bringing basic health services to the doorsteps of more than 780,000 Sierra Leoneans.

micro-enterprises that allow them time to conduct daily household visits. They are the central point of contact for health concerns in their communities. Since the start of our programme and as of December 2011, we have trained 660 Sierra Leoneans as CHPs. Each CHP is responsible for monthly visits to 150 to 200 households in her designated area -– all within one kilometre of her home. CHPs earn a small income from selling healthcare products such as sanitary napkins, hygienic soap and iodised salt. Apart from their regular activities, CHPs participate in various national campaigns, for example campaigns on immunisation, polio vaccine administration and the promotion of malaria awareness messages along with the distribution of long lasting, insecticide-treated bed nets. Their participation facilitates and strengthens BRAC’s partnership and collaboration with the government for further implementation of the national tuberculosis and malaria programmes.

Growth in 2011 In the programme’s new operational areas (Bo, Kenema and Kono districts), 260 CHPs received training in 2011, bringing the total number of CHPs to 660. This year our CHPs, with the help of the programme assistants, referred 82,061 patients to the nearby government health facilities. To ensure that the referred patients received appropriate treatment, referral slips were introduced. The slips were printed ahead of time and are now being used on a pilot basis in eight government health facilities or peripheral health units. During household rounds, the CHPs visited a total of 566,924 eligible couples to encourage family planning methods where there was a demand, and provided counselling to 26,945 patients. During the implementation of the health programme, CHPs often encountered the limitations of the health system, such as the lack of quality diagnostic services. BRAC addressed this issue BYÖESTABLISHINGÖITSÖÙRSTÖHEALTHÖANDÖ diagnostic centre in Goderich, Freetown in late 2010. The facility is located in the Western Area Rural district, covering a population of more than 50,000 in
Lumley and Goderich, where no other diagnostic services are available. The lab provides affordable diagnostic services, especially for marginalised and vulnerable groups. It also helps reduce transmission of infections and supports appropriate treatment of diseases through early case detection. In line with the free healthcare initiative, free services are provided for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and CHILDRENÖUNDERÖÙVE Ö In 2012, BRAC Sierra Leone will increase its focus on the sixth Millennium Development Goal (which seeks to combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases) with a series of initiatives and partnerships. BRAC will start working on malaria reduction strategies as a sub-recipient of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria in
collaboration with the principal recipients, the Government of Sierra Leone and Catholic Relief Services. The programme will cover three districts of Western Area (Freetown), Kenema and Tonkolili. With regards to HIV/AIDS, the collaboration with the government to supply HIV/AIDS kits and reagents and the training of BRAC diagnostic laboratory staff on HIV/AIDS counselling, will be ready for operation in 2012.

MARIE Y. KAMARA: Healing the community
“I thank Marie, our local CHP, and BRAC for bringing about the telemedicine programme which has helped me and many others.”
Marie Y. Kamara is one of BRAC’s community health promoters and works in Goderich, Freetown. Every morning, she visits the community and asks residents whether they have any health-related questions, which she records in a book. One day in July 2011, she visited the home of a woman called Mariewa at the request of Mariewa’s grandchild. The old woman was severely ill, suffering from dim vision, sacral pain, abdominal pain, and joint pain all over her body. From one of Marie’s prior visits, Mariewa was aware of the BRAC telemedicine programme, a service for those who do not have the necessary funds to go to the hospital. After examining the patient, Marie decided it was important for a doctor to be consulted. She promptly called a doctor from the BRAC laboratory diagnostic centre to explain Mariewa’s symptoms and the doctor, after listening to her, prescribed the necessary medicine. After completing the intake of her prescribed medication, Mariewa’s health greatly improved. In time she was able to perform her daily chores again and

Among the victims of Sierra Leone’s civil war is Alpha Koroma, who is married with six children, and the sole provider for his immediate and extended family. Twenty years ago, Alpha started a business in the village of Gboworbu, located in southern Sierra Leone. His business consisted of illegal fuel trading which at the time was a common practice in the region. During the rebel incursion, Alpha was forced to leave this business when his home was burnt down, leaving his family homeless. His family had to leave their place of origin behind, in pursuit of a new life in the capital Freetown. After settling in to Freetown, Alpha started a small timber depot business with his wife.

Poultry and Livestock Assisting the farmers in Sierra Leone BRAC launched its poultry and livestock programme in Sierra Leone in 2008. The programme addresses the problem of poor livestock productivity in the country ANDÖHASÖTHEÖAIMÖOFÖIMPROVINGÖTHEÖEFÙCIENCYÖ and management of small to medium farm enterprises. The programme is designed to decrease livestock mortality, raise farm income, and increase rural employment. Through this programme, BRAC has been working to increase the productivity of small scale agriculture, livestock and poultry activities in Sierra Leone by providing farmers with assistance to undertake income generating activities such as raising chickens, sheep, goats, pigs, cows, and cultivating small plots of land. BRAC’s methods include training and support on modern farming techniques. The programme operates through selfemployed community livestock and poultry promoters (CLPPs). CLPPs are experienced female poultry and livestock FARMERSÖSELECTEDÖFROMÖ"2!#ÖMICROÙNANCEÖ groups. They receive extensive training in animal husbandry, animal health issues, and vaccinations. They also learn about the production and conservation of fodder crops. With help from BRAC, CLPPs
can then offer vaccination services, sell veterinary medicine, and provide TECHNICALÖASSISTANCEÖTOÖOTHERÖMICROÙNANCEÖ group members and the wider farming community. CLPPs also select and assist model poultry farmers and model goat, sheep and pig rearers. Model rearers are farmers who want to increase their poultry and livestock production and are based at a strategic location in their community. Their business serves as an example to other rearers in the area. Model rearers BENEÙTÖFROMÖ"2!#ÖTRAININGÖINÖTHEIRÖÙELDÖ of interest (poultry, sheep, goats or pigs), receive technical support from CLPPs and PAs, and are provided with inputs such as feed, vaccines, deworming medication and construction materials for their smallscale businesses through loans, which they start paying back once they have started generating income from their model unit. At the branch level, BRAC’s poultry and livestock programme is coordinated by dedicated programme assistants (PAs). Each PA receives extensive training from BRAC on topics such as livestock and poultry rearing and diseases. The PA’s role is to train and supervise the CLPPs, who are at the core of the programme. At any
point in time, PAs can ask for assistance from their assigned area coordinator. It is through this pyramid of entrepreneurial extension agents and structured supervision system that BRAC can extend these services to thousands of people in Sierra Leone.
Growth in 2011 As of December 2011, the BRAC Sierra Leone poultry and livestock programme covered a population of 3,372, with 69 model poultry rearers, 144 model goat rearers, eight model sheep rearers, and 28 model pig rearers having received training. In total, the model rearers received 6,791 number of day-old chicks, 288 goats, 16 sheep, and 56 pigs for the commencement of their rearing enterprises. BRAC’s CLPPs have administered vaccinations to 140,305 poultry to date, and have treated 7,155 livestock and cattle. They have also distributed 27 metric tonnes of feed.

“I am very grateful to BRAC’s poultry and livestock development programme and feel very happy to work with them, being a part of their team. It is a chain effect, whereby you help one person, who in turn helps another – this way, you serve an entire community.�
Yatta Sesay, a 38-year old woman, was one of the recipients of BRAC’s poultry and livestock services. She heard about BRAC in December 2008 through her neighbour Maya, who was a member OFÖTHEÖ"2!#ÖMICROÙNANCEÖGROUP Ö9ATTAÖ TOOKÖTHEÖINITIATIVEÖTOÖÙNDÖOUTÖMOREÖABOUTÖ the services BRAC offered, which led to her interest in the poultry and livestock programme. She was introduced to the Area Livestock Coordinator, who then helped Yatta become a programme participant. BRAC staff shared extensive information on animal husbandry, how to take care of domestic animals and their economic importance with her. The local bird vaccination programme in the community intrigued Yatta especially. She was selected as a CLPP and received 12 days of intensive training. After the training, she started her own income generating vaccination service with the resources, for example vaccination kits, provided by BRAC.
Soon after, Yatta decided to broaden her capabilities and venture into livestock rearing as well. She received training on goat rearing and become a model goat rearer. She participated in regular monthly refresher trainings from which she continued to learn about diseases and the proper management of goats as well ASÖPOULTRY Ö7HENÖSHEÖÙRSTÖUNDERTOOKÖTHISÖ livestock endeavour, she had three goats – one adult goat and two kids. With the proper care for them and the exercise of disease management, the two kids grew to be healthy, mature goats. She sold one goat and the money she received helped pay for food for the family and her children’s school fees.

Human Rights and Legal Empowerment BRAC empowers the poor and marginalised by informing them of their legal and human rights. Our “barefoot lawyers,� the pioneering troop of the world’s largest NGO-led legal empowerment initiative, delivers legal services to the doorsteps of millions. By organising legal education classes, we give the poor the knowledge they need; by providing legal aid through our staff lawyers, we help them assert their rights. And by engaging local community leaders to foster more widespread awareness of legal issues, we help them transform themselves into agents of social change.
Resolving judicial issues To address the scarcity of lawyers in Sierra Leone, especially in the provincial areas, the human rights and legal empowerment (HRLE) programme provides free legal aid to marginalised communities. The programme uses BRAC’s infrastructure and builds on already mobilised communities to provide a free alternative dispute resolution service through a network of community-based paralegals who give advice and assistance in both civil and criminal matters. In remote locations where sustained service integration within the local community is not possible, BRAC operates a mobile legal clinic service, whereby paralegals travel to small communities and encourage the inhabitants to discuss their legal predicaments. Key issues which the HRLE programme tackles include cases of negligence of children and pregnant women, domestic violence, and rape; debt, land disputes, neighbour disputes, expenditure refund disagreements, larceny, and other problems at the community level. BRAC recruited 11 paralegals and provided one month of training on both formal and informal/traditional law for them. A baseline survey of 636 households was conducted to obtain data on attitude and practices of issues related to justice. To establish a presence in communities, BRAC conducts meetings which are attended by chiefdom traditional and tribal leaders, village headmen, councillors, governmental and non-governmental representatives, police, social elites, and female leaders to introduce BRAC and the human rights programme. During orientation sessions conducted in schools, paralegals discuss BRAC programme activities and services, including BRAC’s free legal assistance. Discussions are focused on sexual and gender-based violence, child and spousal protection,
teenage pregnancy, and the Child Rights Act, among others. In each chiefdom, 20 community oversight boards (COBs) and 20 community contact persons were selected with the consent of the respective paramount and section chiefs. COB members, who help in advising BRAC’s paralegals, are wellrespected elderly people with thorough knowledge about local customs and traditions of the people in their chiefdoms. Young people are selected as community contact persons who help the paralegals organise mobile legal clinics. COB members and community contact persons participated in two days of training on the basic legal systems of both formal and customary law as well as mediation. Mobile legal clinics are designed for paralegals to raise community awareness of the law and general human rights issues in Sierra Leone, and to provide concrete practical solutions to justicerelated concerns. During mobile legal clinic sessions, cases are recorded and reported. Some are mediated on the spot with the help of the community contact person while others are referred TOÖTHEÖNEARESTÖ"2!#ÖOFÙCE Ö$ISPUTESÖ which cannot be resolved by mediation are referred to local and magistrate courts, with paralegals monitoring case developments in conjunction with QUALIÙEDÖLEGALÖPRACTITIONERS Ö&OLLOW UPSÖAREÖ conducted for all ongoing cases, including cases which were mediated successfully and calls for both parties to adhere to the settlement reached.
Growth in 2011 Legal literacy classes for female community members on 10 topics related to the traditional and formal legal systems were initiated in November 2011. The classes enable the participating women to gain knowledge about claiming their rights, reducing disputes in their community with the aid of paralegals, and resolving small disputes amongst themselves. As of December 2011, the HRLE programme has reached 235,374 in covering 1,161 villages, and has received 642 cases.
BRAC’s work in human rights and legal aid services is one of the most impressive large scale legal aid programmes in the world today. A passion for justice is felt throughout the BRAC team. But most importantly, when travelling with BRAC, you realise that clients trust BRAC completely as a professional organisation: they share their stories readily without fear of reprisal, and while expecting that their grievances will finally be heard. Not only are they heard, but these cases are mediated and adjudicated. Stephanie Cohn Rupp Investments Omidyar Network

ROSAR VILLAGE: Fixing the borehole
“We are very happy and thankful to BRAC’s paralegals for their diligence and effort in helping our village by arranging for our borehole to BEĂ–Ă™XED n
During a mobile legal clinic visit to the village of Rossar in northern Sierra Leone, BRAC paralegals received reports from villagers that their borehole, which had been constructed by Oxfam in 2002, was no longer in working condition. Village residents were instead fetching water from nearby streams, ponds and rivers – a laborious and time-consuming task. BRAC’s paralegals took prompt action by writing an advocacy letter to the development initiative programme’s (DIP) Port Loko branch on behalf of the people of Rossar. The letter included a request that the borehole be repaired. In response, the manager of DIP’s Port Loko branch called BRAC’s paralegals to discuss the issue further. He said that although the DIP operational area did not cover the village of Rossar, he would confer with DIP technicians to see what could be done. On September 2011, the paralegals paid AÖFOLLOW UPÖVISITÖTOÖTHEÖ$)0ÖOFÙCEÖSINCEÖTHEÖ borehole issue had yet to be resolved. DIP management assured the paralegals that he had instructed the technician to go to Rossar village and assess the situation of the borehole. The technician

The total cost of needed repairs amounted to SLL 180,000 (USD 42).
