The question is not an easy one to answer, and yet the overall effectiveness of development cooperation is an issue of increasing concern. While individual projects and programmes generally have specific objectives that include indicators at the different levels, this is not the case with FAO cooperation in a particular country. All that has been formulated is the expectation that the Organisation will contribute to achieving the MDGs, i.e. that it must be judged with regard to relevance and effectiveness (development impact). Furthermore, FAO is not a donor. Rather, the partner country concerned is a member of FAO and FAO is accountable to its members. And the partner country – in this case Sierra Leone – can (hopefully) declare itself satisfied with the services offered. Is it possible to carry out an evaluation in such circumstances? The terms of reference are geared towards: cooperation strategy and relevance of the programme; developmental effectiveness; institutional arrangements, modalities and processes; functioning of the FAO Representation – although precise targets for achievement are not mentioned. Then there is an emphasis on specific programmes and projects – financed by FAO-TCP or from external sources – which were carried out by FAO during the evaluation period. Even if links do exist between the individual initiatives, one simply cannot speak of a programme in this context. In the early part of the evaluation period, international support to Sierra Leone – and with it that of FAO – was dominated by emergency aid. Subsequently, the focus was on restoring agriculture on a more normal basis. These were very different types of assistance. We began by attempting to assess the various projects and programmes according to internationally recognised evaluation criteria: Relevance: Is FAO doing the right things? Efficiency: Is FAO doing the right things in the right way, i.e. cost-effectively? Effectiveness: Do FAO activities help to achieve the objectives? Impact: Do FAO activities contribute to the achievement of overarching development goals (e.g. MDGs) and, if so, how? Sustainability: Are the results sustained beyond the period of FAO assistance? The evaluation did not only look at the design, implementation and results of emergency and development projects; it also assessed the work carried out by the FAO country office in Sierra Leone and support to the country given by the FAO Regional Office in Accra and FAO headquarters. Germany was the most important external financier of development projects during the evaluation period. Four projects in Sierra Leone were supported through the bilateral fund of the German Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture, and Consumer Protection (BMELV); these were in the areas of food security / agricultural advice; seed production; right to food; and fair trade. Germany cooperated closely with the evaluation and two team members were seconded by the German international cooperation agency GTZ. i Foreword The entire team was welcomed and treated in a friendly and obliging manner in Sierra Leone. The decision makers in the Sierra Leonean Government – especially the Minister for Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS) – showed a great deal of interest in the mission. They confirmed what they saw as the valuable support of the FAO Representation. Nonetheless, the staffing and institutional capacity of the ministries, as well as of the decentralised structures that were newly formed in 2005 (District Councils), are such that an efficient and effective cooperation remains dogged by many fundamental weaknesses. The answer given once in response to a question about priority setting summed up the situation: Priorities? We have so many priorities! The final evaluation was preceded by an inception mission undertaken by the FAO Evaluation Service in July 2006, to gather information and consult with the Government, members of the UN system and other donors on the issues to be covered. The next step was the conduct of impact studies at field level on key programme areas (Farmers’ Field Schools and emergency interventions), carried out by a Sierra Leone team under supervision of the Evaluation Service. The final evaluation was held in February 2007. The eight-member evaluation team (a staff member and a consultant from the FAO Evaluation Service, an FAO Internal Auditor, three international consultants and two national consultants) met all together for the first time in Freetown. Also present as a resource person was the former FAO Representative, Mohammed Farah. Although he retired in August 2006, the FAOR post was still vacant at the time of the evaluation. The allocation of tasks and roles in the team posed no problems whatsoever. The project visits, conducted in small groups, provided an extremely useful insight into the conditions surrounding development cooperation in the rural areas of Sierra Leone. The desire to live peacefully alongside one another was expressed convincingly everywhere, so that hope for corresponding progress in development was reinforced, despite the prevailing difficulties. With the completing of this report – to which everyone made their expected contribution – I would like, as head of the evaluation team, to thank the members of the team for the successful and goal-oriented team work undertaken. The absorbing work proved to be no hindrance to a positive atmosphere – on the contrary! We wish FAO – and Sierra Leone – every success in implementing the recommendations we have proposed. In future, it may then be easier to answer the question: Did FAO cooperation perform well in Sierra Leone?

  • 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.

  • A Sub-National Case Study of Liberal Peacebuilding in Sierra Leone and Liberia
    Department of Political Science McGill University Harmonizing Customary Justice with the Rule of Law? A Sub-national Case Study of Liberal Peacebuilding in Sierra Leone and Liberia By Mohamed Sesay A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Mohamed Sesay, 2016 ABSTRACT One of the greatest conundrums facing postwar reconstruction in non-Western countries is the resilience of customary justice systems whose procedural and substantive norms are often inconsistent with international standards. Also, there are concerns that subjecting customary systems to formal regulation may undermine vital conflict resolution mechanisms in these war-torn societies. However, this case study of peacebuilding in Sierra Leone and Liberia finds that primary justice systems interact in complex ways that are both mutually reinforcing and undermining, depending on the particular configuration of institutions, norms, and power in the local sub-national context. In any scenario of formal and informal justice interaction (be it conflictual or cooperative), it matters whether the state justice system is able to deliver accessible, affordable, and credible justice to local populations and whether justice norms are in line with people’s conflict resolution needs, priorities, and expectations. Yet, such interaction between justice institutions and norms is mediated by underlying power dynamics relating to local political authority and access to local resources. These findings were drawn from a six-month fieldwork that included collection of documentary evidence, observation of customary courts, and in-depth interviews with a wide range of stakeholders such as judicial officials, paralegals, traditional authorities, as well as local residents who seek justice in multiple forums.

    Ethnography of Land Deals Local Perceptions of a Bioenergy Project in Sierra Leone –Expectations of Modernity, Gendered Impacts and Coping Strategies– Master Thesis of Franziska Marfurt Master of Arts in Social Anthropology Institute of Social Anthropology University of Bern Supervisor [email protected] Prof. Dr. Tobias Haller 07-209-331 Submitted 21.01.2016 To Franziska Conteh and the People of Worreh Yeama Abstract In the last decade with have witnessed a rise in large-scale land acquisition projects on a global scale. Despite increased research activity, data on concrete implementation processes and perceptions of different groups of affected people remain sparse. This thesis aims to address this research gap by providing empirical in-depth knowledge on the investment case of the Swiss-based company Addax Bioenergy in Sierra Leone. The four-month fieldwork addressed questions of consultation, perceptions, impacts on livelihoods and coping strategies. Findings reveal gendered impacts on access to land and resources and adverse effects on livelihood strategies of women who have been marginalised through the formalisation of customary land rights. However, evidence shows that women and other groups of affected people are capable of organizing within a complex institutional setting. Through alliances with various actors they manage to influence the outcomes of the Bioenergy project through acts of resistance and therewith prevent further deterioration of resilience of livelihoods. Key Words: Large scale land acquisition, local impacts, land rights, gender, development, resistance. i Acknowledgments The writing of this thesis would not have been possible without all the people who have supported me during my fieldwork and the process of writing.

  • Effects of the Addax Bioenergy Investment on Female Farmers’ Rights to Land and Their Livelihoods in Bombali District, Sierra Leone
    Lund University Master of Science in International Development and Management Photo: Addax Bioenergy-Sugarcane-Biofuel Project: (Photo by Benjamin John Sesay) EFFECTS OF THE ADDAX BIOENERGY INVESTMENT ON FEMALE FARMERS’ RIGHTS TO LAND AND THEIR LIVELIHOODS IN BOMBALI DISTRICT, SIERRA LEONE Author: Benjamin John Sesay No Supervisor May 2015 1 Abstract Attempts to promote women’s rights to land in Sub-Saharan Africa have attracted attention in both academia and from an international development perspective. Female Farmers (FFs) in Bombali district in northern Sierra Leone gain access to farmland through male heritages under customary practices. This makes them dependent on maintaining connections with male lineages in order to gain rights to land, which include ownership, control, as well as access and use. The Swiss based company, Addax Bioenergy is involved in a sugarcane-biofuel-project in the district of Bombali, which has led to land ownership shifting legally to the company on a long-term lease. Land access and use have been limited in areas, which overlap the company’s project site. Proponents of the Addax Bioenergy project have assumed such investment would contribute to Sierra Leone’s development strides. This thesis examines three key concepts which include: ways of acquiring farmland and the Addax Bioenergy’s Large-Scale Land Acquisition (LSLA), the female farmers’ understanding of LSLA, and the impact on the rights to land and livelihoods. The thesis uses a mixed method approach together with Noam Chomsky’s (1999) theoretical framework on profit over people: neoliberalism and the global order, and Naila Kabeer’s (2005) Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment to analyse the data aimed at answering the research question.
