UN PBF Conference, Presidential Lodge, Freetown, Tuesday 26 January 2021 – Sierra Leone’s President Dr Julius Maada Bio has called on UN member states to mobilise support for the Peacebuilding Funds, PBF, and pledged $1 million with an annual commitment of $200,000 over the five-year period of the fundraiser.
The President, who joined UN Secretary-General António Guterres on 25 January 2021 as co-chair of a high-level virtual Replenishment Conference for the Peacebuilding Fund to mobilise critical support for conflict prevention and peacebuilding against the Fund’s $1.5 billion requirements for the period 2020-24, expressed gratitude to the UN.
“Our nation’s story has been possible partly because of the investments by the Peacebuilding Commission. I, therefore, call on all UN Member States to both renew their commitment to the UN’s peacebuilding efforts and to mobilize adequate, predictable, and sustainable financing for peacebuilding through a broadened donor base
