MRU Seeks Peace Partnership with Sierra Leone
The Mano River Union (MRU) is seeking a partnership with Sierra Leone’s Independent Commission for Peace and National Cohesion (ICPNC) to strengthen regional peacebuilding, prevent conflicts, and promote social cohesion.
The proposed collaboration was discussed on Thursday, November 12, when MRU Secretary-General Ambassador Simeon M-B. Moribah and Deputy Secretary-General for Economic Development and Regional Integration Ama Gborie Foday met ICPNC Executive Secretary Hawa Sally Samai in Freetown.
The discussions explored how the two institutions could work together on peacebuilding initiatives, particularly those addressing conflicts that extend across national borders and affect communities within the sub-region.
The ICPNC is responsible for promoting peace and national cohesion within Sierra Leone, while the MRU provides a platform for regional cooperation among Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea, and Côte d’Ivoire.
Closer cooperation could allow the institutions to share experiences, exchange knowledge, and develop joint approaches to challenges affecting peace and stability across the sub-region.
