This project will strengthen Sierra Leone’s national data and statistical systems by using artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technologies to improve monitoring of the SDGs and the Medium-Term National Development Plan. It aims to advance the use of data, geographic information systems (GIS), and data-driven tools to reinforce the country’s statistical infrastructure—particularly by assisting Statistics Sierra Leone (Stats SL) in piloting AI-powered methodologies for analyzing multidimensional poverty through the Local Multidimensional Poverty Index (LMPI), and developing a foundational digital data hub for national development indicators. Key outputs include a landscape and capacity assessment, training for officials, and an AI-enabled prototype platform designed to close data gaps, enhance decision-making, and advance poverty reduction and sustainable development.
