On July 9th, 2026, Every Woman Sierra Leone held an impactful community engagement in Mabap, bringing together women, elders, youth and children for open conversations on women's rights. child protection, and the prevention of r**e, domestic violence, and abuse. A highlight of the meeting was the brave commitment of a respected elderly woman who pledged to report cases of r**e, domestic violence, and child abuse, encouraging survivors to speak out and seek help. This act of solidarity underscores the growing resolve within the community. "This is exactly the kind of partnership we want to build with communities," said program manager Beatrice Tholley. "Together, we can break the silence, prevent violence, and ensure that every woman and every child lives with dignity, safety, and hope." The initiative marks part of Every Woman Sierra Leone's ongoing mission to build violence-free communities through grassroots education and advocacy.

We speak to you today with a message of truth, courage, and hope. For generations, harmful practices like Female Ge***al Mutilation (FGM) have been carried out in the name of tradition, affecting over 83% of women in our country. But tradition must never be a shield for harm. Every Woman Sierra Leone is committed to changing the narrativeโ€”not by attacking our culture, but by protecting our women and girls.

Every Woman Sierra Leone calls on everyone:
โ€ข To the Soweis and Traditional Leaders: We honor your role as custodians of our heritage. We invite you to join us in becoming protectors of our girls by adopting safe, non-harmful initiation practices.
โ€ข To the Parents: The greatest gift you can give your daughter is her health, her dignity, and her education. Let her dream of school and a future, not the pain of the cut.
โ€ข To the Government: We urge you to heed the call of the courts and our people by enacting laws that fully protect our women and girls from this violence.

Together, we can end FGM. Together, we can build a Sierra Leone where every girl is safe, respected, and empowered.

No more silence. No more fear. Every woman deserves to live free from abuse, harm, and oppression. It starts with awareness, action, and accountability.

Speak up. Speak out. Protect her rights. Respect her voice.

Letโ€™s build a Sierra Leone where every woman is safe, valued, and empowered.

Enough is enough. End violence now.

Every Woman Sierra Leone is urgently appealing to the public for help in identifying and reaching the family of the little girl seen crying in a video currently circulating on social media.

The video contains allegations that the child may have been touched inappropriately by an adult man, but at this time we have not been able to independently verify the details or obtain additional information about the incident.

Our immediate concern is the safety, protection, and emotional wellbeing of the child. We are therefore calling on anyone who knows the child, her family, or where the incident may have occurred to please contact us privately if you have any information.
Thank you
