Sierra Leone’s Progress on the Global Stage
Transparency International Sierra Leone (TISL) has released its comprehensive analysis of the 2024 Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI). The report shows a marginal improvement in the country’s score, reflecting ongoing efforts to curb graft in the public sector.
Key Findings
- Score Improvement: Sierra Leone scored 35 out of 100, a 1-point increase from the previous year.
- Regional Comparison: The country performs above the West African regional average but remains below the global average.
- Sectoral Analysis: The health and education sectors showed signs of reduced bribery, while procurement remains a high-risk area.
Recommendations
TISL calls on the government to strengthen the independence of the judiciary and audit institutions to sustain these gains.
