The Sierra Leone Adolescent Girls Network

When Ebola hit in 2014, a loose coalition of partners came together to share and support each other as they fought to include girls in aid and recovery efforts. The Sierra Leone Adolescent Girls Network – supported, convened and funded by Purposeful – has since grown to a coalition of over 150 local, national and international organisations.

The network shares resources and evidence-based best practice and coordinates, campaigns and catalyses collective voice with and on behalf of girls. The unprecedented power of so many organisations speaking with one voice and one vision across spaces and places in Sierra Leone has meant a level of attention and resources for girls unimaginable even a few years ago.
