As part of a strategic initiative supported by USAID through the BASE Consortium, the Centre for Accountability and Rule of Law has successfully wrapped up a comprehensive training module aimed at enhancing governance practices within local councils across six key districts in Sierra Leone. The districts include Western Area Rural, Kono, Karene, Moyamba, Tonkolili, and Falaba.
The training was focused on equipping councillors and core council staff with essential skills in adaptive leadership, council development planning, and effective service delivery. Through this initiative, participants learnt how to adeptly navigate challenges associated with the delivery of services as well as provide timely and useful response to the needs and expectations of citizens based on each council’s development plans.
This is part of a plan to bolster the efficiency and effectiveness of local governance, as well as help in fostering transparent, participatory, and citizen-centric governance practices across Sierra Leone.
The BASE Consortium includes IGR, CARL, 50-50, BAN and IRN
