Irish Aid donation boosts Gender Ministry’s district services.

Ministry of Gender and Children’s Affairs has received dignity kits, six motorbikes and digital equipment through Irish Aid and UN Women, boosting district services for women and children.

The ministry said the items, including laptops and printers, would support staff in Bonthe, Karene and Pujehun and improve responses to vulnerable communities.

Officials said the support formed part of continued cooperation between the ministry and development partners aimed at strengthening institutional capacity and improving gender and child protection services at district and community level.

The six motorbikes are expected to improve staff mobility, especially in hard-to-reach areas where poor roads and difficult terrain often disrupt field operations.

The digital equipment is also expected to strengthen documentation, communication, reporting and other administrative work in the districts.

Officials said the dignity kits would support women and girls, especially those accessing safe homes and other protection services.

Representatives speaking for district staff thanked Irish Aid and UN Women, saying the support would help teams reach communities more effectively and improve the quality and speed of services for women, children and other vulnerable groups.

They added that stronger logistical and digital support would also help district teams carry out field monitoring, community engagement and other essential duties more efficiently.

The handover marks another step in the ministry’s efforts to strengthen its district presence and improve service delivery through partnerships with development agencies.

The ceremony ended with a group photograph involving senior ministry officials and a UN Women representative, underlining continued cooperation and shared commitment to the rights and wellbeing of women and children in Sierra Leone.
