Appeal for information on Sierra Leone
I recently returned from a journey to Sierra Leone where I met with NGOs and CBOs in the country dealing specifically with women and children's issues. I have a lot of information on the organizations. However, I do not have a lot of statistics on the plight of women and children to help "paint a picture of the situation."
I have just started ‘A Brighter Tomorrow for Africa’ - a charitable organization to raise awareness of and resources for the CBOs and NGOs with which I visited. I am a subscriber and have seen stories on Sierra Leone. I have not, however seen specific statistics relating to the plight of women and children in Sierra Leone? Do you have any or can you point me to an organization that might? I am looking for the following information:
- Education? The level for women and for children?
- Sexual Abuse Cases?
- Ex Combatants?
- Number of street children?
- Number of orphans?
- The health of women and children in Sierra Leone?
Any and all help would be GREATLY appreciated. ([email protected])
