Western Africa on Sierra Leone (July 2011)
In its review of the expected Secretary-General’s report that includes information on Sierra Leone, Council members should ensure the report contains sufficient analysis regarding women’s political participation. The Council should evaluate progress made relevant to the Sierra Leone President Koroma’s pledge to support a 30% quota (as recommended by the CEDAW Committee) for women in parliamentary and cabinet representation as part of his reelection campaign.
