population and demand for employment.
1 AFFORD-UK has been especially active in post-conflict
Sierra Leone, where it works in partnership with African Foundation for Development in Sierra Leone
(AFFORD-SL) to facilitate the creation, protection and maintenance of jobs through practical support for
small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In Sierra Leone, SMEs account for approximately 70 per
cent of the economy,2 and denote enterprises of between 5 to 50 employees.
