Rationale for Inclusion |
|
International Medical Corps (IMC) |
This provides urgent support to those afflicted by conflict, disaster, and disease—regardless of where they are or what their circumstances are—and helps them to heal, rebuild, and acquire the knowledge and tools necessary to become self-sufficient. |
In Sierra Leone, International Medical Corps is just one of a few numbers of international non-governmental organizations providing care for people with Ebola. International Medical Corps can assist put a stop to the Ebola epidemic in Sierra Leone and ensure the country's health care system is resilient enough to prevent future outbreaks. Foreign Medical Corps is hard at work with both local and international partners to strengthen the health system so that individuals may get care for conditions unrelated to Ebola (Mallow et al.,2018). |
|
Agency for International Development |
To guarantee that essential socioeconomic and health services are available to people who need them as well and that Sierra Leone is resilient and ready to react appropriately to any public disasters, USAID will closely collaborate with the Government of Sierra Leone and other donors. |
Aid from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in Sierra Leone focuses largely on strengthening institutions that are accountable to and responsive to their constituents; easing rural poverty; promoting sustainable resource management; ensuring access to good health, sanitation, social protection and services; and improving the standard of primary education (Fenio et al.,2019). |
|
Amnesty International |
This is a worldwide organization that opposes prejudice and supports human rights, such as the right to adequate health care(Charman,2018). |
Amnesty International will promote the adoption of some of the UPR recommendations and draw attention to cases where current laws and policies are violating human rights in Sierra Leone. |

Rationale for Inclusion |
|
WYA |
Their ideal society is one in which everyone is treated with respect and where policies and programs are built around the needs of individuals. In this world, development is achieved through a dedication to human dignity and the implementation of people-centered approaches. |
Young people in Sierra Leone may benefit from the organization’s training not just in the prevention of Ebola epidemic but also in the early detection of other health issues. The Alliance has the resources and "language" to reach out to the young people of this country. |
|
UN OCHA |
OCHA seeks to rally and cooperate with the wide band of financing instruments, affiliates in order to ensure that humanitarian management and governance mechanisms at the national level are supported, and that the many humanitarian assistance financing mechanisms are coherent to one another and coherent with development finance. |
With almost 14,000 incidents, over 3,500 deaths, and roughly 4,051 survivors, Sierra Leone is the worst hit nation by the Ebola virus illness. The country is already marked by multidimensional poverty, a short life expectancy, and a poor human development index (HDI). Sierra Leone was one of many nearby nations to see an increase in cases following the first case was discovered in Guinea early March 2014. |

Brief Description |
Rationale for Inclusion |
|
USAID |
The agency’s overseas development and philanthropic projects decreases poverty, bolsters democratic government, saves lives, and assists people in moving past aid. |
The key goals of USAID's aid in Sierra Leone are to enhance the quality of basic school, health care, water and sanitation, social protection, and governance. Other goals include lowering poverty and encouraging sustainable resource management. The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) will collaborate Sierra Leone Government and other donors to make sure that those in greatest need have access to basic social economic and healthcare care and that the country is adaptable and ready to respond sufficiently to future public conflicts. |
|
People In Need |
Humanitarian assistance is supplied promptly and individuals are supported to get back to normalcy. More than 30 nations benefit from their organization's efforts to promote education, aid the most disadvantaged, and back those fighting for human rights. The ideals of solidarity, mutual aid, and humanism. |
People In Need have been providing support to assist the Sierra Leone government function more smoothly. |
|
Doctors of the World |
They serve anyone in need, no matter where they are or how long they will need care for. They are proud of the reputation they've earned for reacting to crises from inside, for reaching out to underserved communities, and for establishing permanent, sustainable medical facilities where society has traditionally lacked them. |
Doctors of the World originally arrived in Sierra Leone in 2003 to provide basic healthcare as well as sexual and reproductive health programs. |

Brief Description |
Rationale for Inclusion |
|
Friends of UNFPA |
This is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to enhance women and girls lives around the globe by raising awareness and funds for UNFPA, the United Nations agency responsible for reproductive health and rights. The organization works in more than 155 countries to reduce the lack of access to family planning, maternal mortality, and violence against women and girls. |
The maternal mortality rate in Sierra Leone has dropped dramatically despite the country's recent civil war. Unfortunately, a significant number of maternal fatalities still result from teen pregnancies. UNFPA has been working in the nation since 1971, promoting midwifery programs, improved emergency obstetric and infant care, and the efficient administration of reproductive health commodities as means of bettering reproductive health care. |
|
People In Need |
Humanitarian aid is provided immediately, and people are helped to get back on their feet. They help people in over 30 different nations get an education, aid the impoverished and underprivileged, and support those who fight for human rights. Humanism, a commitment to helping others, and solidarity are all fundamental values. |
This organization has been assisting in the strengthening of the Sierra Leone government. |
|
Doctor of the World |
In times of crisis or on an ongoing basis, they are there to provide medical care to anyone in need, regardless of where they may be. To them, it is a source of pride to respond to crises within, to reach out to marginalized communities, and to build long-term, sustainable health care in places that mainstream society would rather overlook. |
In 2003, Doctors of the World started providing basic care and reproductive health and sexual health programming in Sierra Leone. A purpose-built treatment center that we established and managed in Moyamba was important in stemming the latest Ebola epidemic.. |
