Humanitarian access to the interior

    ABIDJAN

    Humanitarian agencies operating in Bombali and Tonkolili districts in northern and central Sierra Leone, have experienced no significant difficulties since the areas were successfully reopened in March, the Humanitarian Assistance Coordination Unit (HACU) reported.

    Monitoring is underway to ensure that beneficiaries have not been
    harassed, and plans are being developed for larger scale programmes in the next couple of months, HACU said in its March report.

    Recent missions by WFP, HACU and UNHCR to northern Kambia District have opened the way for work in these areas but instability there is still a problem, HACU said.
