Sierra Leone - legal and judicial sector assessment

Abstract

Sierra Leone has been devastated by the effects of a decade of civil war, and today is one of the poorest countries in the world. After more than ten years of instability, the civil war was officially declared over January 2002; the state of emergency was lifted and free and fair elections were held. While violence in the neighboring countries remains a destabilizing force, there is reason to be optimistic that the situation in Sierra Leone will remain peaceful. However, the toll of prolonged conflict and instability is still being felt.
