The Ministry of Information and Civic Education is convening its annual retreat from February 2 to 4, 2026, in the tranquil setting of Bonthe. This retreat aims to prioritize the development of Media and Civic Education Strategies among the ministry’s key stakeholders.
Nestled between palm trees and the gentle sea breeze, the retreat offers a reflective space for participants to step away from the hustle of the capital. It is a unique opportunity for staff members to share ideas, aspirations, and insights, paving the way for innovative strategies and meaningful outreach in the upcoming year.
This year’s retreat resonates with a significant purpose, aligning with President Dr. Julius Maada Bio’s declaration of 2026 as the “Year of Action.” The Ministry’s mission is to enhance government communication efforts by disseminating vital information in a clear, timely, and effective manner. By fostering civic participation across the nation—from rural areas to urban centers—they aim to ensure that their messages have a profound impact on all citizens.
Beyond mere discussions, this retreat embodies a transformative experience. The Ministry’s leaders are committed to promoting transparency, trust, and community involvement, leveraging the power of communication to educate and engage the populace.
As participants embark on this journey together, they carry the collective responsibility to inform and inspire, using the lessons learned to build a brighter, more dynamic future for Sierra Leone.
