    A high-level team of aid donors will be in Sierra Leone on 8-11 November, according to a news release on Wednesday from the Humanitarian Assistance Coordination Unit (HACU) in Freetown.

    The three-day mission aims “to further demonstrate the commitment of the international donor community to support Sierra Leone’s recovery from eight years of civil war,” the statement said.

    It will include donor representatives from the US, UK, Finland, Sweden, Canada, Ireland, Japan and Norway and will be led by Carolyn McAskie, Deputy United Nations Under Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs.
