BEHIND CLOSED DOORS: Sierra Leone’s Gender-Based Violence Epidemic - BBC Africa Eye documentary

In 2019, after reported cases of #GBV doubled, Sierra Leone’s president declared a national state of emergency, including the creation of police units dedicated to tackling the problem, and life sentences for those convicted of violating a child.
Five years on, #BBCAfricaEye reporter Tyson Conteh travels across Sierra Leone to find out whether the government has delivered on its promises.
Through unprecedented access to law enforcement, the judicial system, the penal service, and survivors, Tyson Conteh’s investigation asks why, five years after the promise of firm government action, the women of Sierra Leone still face worrying levels of violence.
