Climate Change Education
CLIMATE CHANGE EDUCATION May, 2014 LIBERIA FOLLOWS THE FOOTSTEPS OF SIERRA LEONE For better or for worst, Sierra Leone has stood behind it’s next door neighbour- Liberia in sharing happiness or bitter- ness. The Socio-political history of these two countries has continued to grow in such that the transplanting of one development project to the other is no more a cause for concern. The belief is that, what works well in Sierra Leone can do better in Liberia. So if Rural Finance can succeed in Sierra Leone then there is no reason for it to fail in Liberia. Pursuant to this and in reference to replicate and adapt the ap- proach and model of Sierra Leo- ne’s highly successful Rural Fi- nance and Community Improve- ment Programme, the Liberia Government through it’s Ministry of Agriculture in collaboration with the Ministry of finance and the Central Bank of Liberia saw it Rural Community Finance Programme, Liberia to copy from the approach and model of Sierra Leone’s fit to request IFAD to pilot a Ru- most successful Rural Finance and Community Improvement Programme ral Finance Programme - Rural Community Finance Programme. monitored at reasonable transac- In light of this, a delegation led by The overall goal of the Liberian tion costs.

Progress Report - 2014
PROGRESS REPORT - 2014 WHO WE ARE ENGIM – Ente Nazionale Gi useppini del Murialdo (National Organization Josephites of Murialdo) - is a non profit organization established in Italy in 1977 to help young people to develop their personal, social and professional skills. Since its foundation, ENGIM is inspired by the teaching of Saint Leonardo Murialdo (1828-1900), the Founder of the Congregation of Saint Joseph. In 1987 ENGIM became also a Non Governmental Organization (extending its name as “ENGIM Internazionale” - “ENGIM International”- hereafter simply ENGIM). Supporting the missions of the St. Joseph Fathers worldwide, it starts to promote development cooperation all over the world. Today ENGIM works in 13 countries: Albania, Romania, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Ghana, Mexico, India, Guinea Bissau, Mali and Sierra Leone. In Sierra Leone, ENGIM arrives in 1987 to help the mission of the Saint Joseph Fathers (SJFs), who already had established the “Murialdo Secondary School” and the “Vocational Training Institute” in Lunsar, Northern Province. Since then ENGIM operates in the country to accomplish the goals of SJFs and support their work. The SJFs are indeed the preferential local partner with whom ENGIM carries out its projects and activities. ENGIM not only draws support from the SJFs and its partners in the Lunsar area, but also in Freetown with the “Missionaries’ Friends Association” and the “Hope of Kent”, important partners for projects concerning the development of the fishing community of Kent. ENGIM's activities are supported and financed by private and public donors, such as the European Union, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Italian Government, various Italian Regions and the “Conferenza Episcopale Italiana”.

The Chiefdoms of Sierra Leone
The Chiefdoms of Sierra Leone Tristan Reed1 James A. Robinson2 July 15, 2013 1Harvard University, Department of Economics, Littauer Center, 1805 Cambridge Street, Cambridge MA 02138; E-mail: [email protected]. 2Harvard University, Department of Government, IQSS, 1737 Cambridge Street., N309, Cambridge MA 02138; E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract1 In this manuscript, a companion to Acemoglu, Reed and Robinson (2013), we provide a detailed history of Paramount Chieftaincies of Sierra Leone. British colonialism transformed society in the country in 1896 by empowering a set of Paramount Chiefs as the sole authority of local government in the newly created Sierra Leone Protectorate. Only individuals from the designated \ruling families" of a chieftaincy are eligible to become Paramount Chiefs. In 2011, we conducted a survey in of \encyclopedias" (the name given in Sierra Leone to elders who preserve the oral history of the chieftaincy) and the elders in all of the ruling families of all 149 chieftaincies. Contemporary chiefs are current up to May 2011. We used the survey to re- construct the history of the chieftaincy, and each family for as far back as our informants could recall. We then used archives of the Sierra Leone National Archive at Fourah Bay College, as well as Provincial Secretary archives in Kenema, the National Archives in London and available secondary sources to cross-check the results of our survey whenever possible. We are the ﬁrst to our knowledge to have constructed a comprehensive history of the chieftaincy in Sierra Leone. 1Oral history surveys were conducted by Mohammed C. Bah, Alimamy Bangura, Alieu K.
