Energy is one of the main sectors that needs to be developed in Sierra Leone, especially in remote areas. PRESSD-SL (Promoting Renewable Energy Services for Social Development in Sierra Leone) is improving energy access in an affordable and sustainable way. This EU funded project is contributing to poverty alleviation through renewable energy services while promoting low-carbon development.

In this video, Kirstie and Esteban visit some remote areas around the Kenema & Kailahun Districts in the East to find out more about how solar energy has improved economic revenues & living conditions for entrepreneurs, students and healthcare workers in the community.

Kirstie and Esteban are traveling to Sierra Leone in March.

Esteban is a filmmaker from Spain and Kirstie is a North Carolina born writer based in Sweden.

They have both done a lot of travelling, but neither of them has ever visited Africa… That is, until now!

Next year, they are heading to Sierra Leone for the visual storytelling adventure of a lifetime.

Join them in March 2020 as they explore amazing landscapes, experience a different culture, face new challenges, and meet inspiring people.

They can’t wait to share all of their stories from the road with you!
