New blog - Fee Romein in Sierra Leone

Great new blog just starting here from Fee Romein who has just arrived in Sierra Leone to spend a while with the Environmental Foundation for Africa. I'm looking forward to hearing more. It's quite a while now since I lived in Sierra Leone myself but it's great to hear about the work of this consortium of NGOs and universities, which according to their webpage is as follows:

The Environmental Foundation for Africa (EFA) aims to protect and restore the environment in West Africa. For over 15 years, EFA has:
- led environmental education (EE) and awareness raising campaigns;
- restored degraded lands and conserved pristine forests;
- minimized the impacts of civil war on the environment and its inhabitants and;
- equipped thousands of people with sustainable livelihood skills such as agroforestry.
