About Us
“Africa is on the cusp of an urban revolution. By 2050, the majority of Africans— some 1.5 billion people— will live in cities. More than 30 African cities will top 5 million people by 2050. The region’s most pressing foreign policy challenges and most enticing commercial opportunities will consequently unfold across these rapidly urbanizing landscapes.”
~ Great Cities Partnership, Centre for Strategic and International Studies (2021)
Our mission is to build a model, Afro-Dynamic, eco-city on Sherbro Island.
A city that will enhance the well-being of its citizens and create jobs and opportunities through:
– Attracting investment, both within the continent and internationally,
– Modernising and creating infrastructure, with world-class urban-planning and management,
– Nurturing strategic industries: healthcare, education, tourism, and agriculture,
– Protecting the island; its natural resources, its history, and its future, for generations to come.
This Public Private-Partnership (PPP) will create a new SEZ which will be a large- scale, phased development that will serve as a robust engine of economic growth for Sierra Leone and as an alternative model for private-sector-led development.
This project will not only benefit the residents of Sherbro Island and all the people of Sierra Leone but the West Africa region and the wider African diaspora.
