MSF Concludes Decade-Long Medical Support in Bombali and Tonkolili

Freetown, 30^th September 2025– After nearly ten years of dedicated service, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has officially concluded its medical support operations in the districts of Bombali and Tonkolili. The organization has worked closely with the Ministry of Health and Sanitation to strengthen the local health system and improve access to care for vulnerable populations.

Since 2016, MSF teams have provided critical medical assistance to thousands of women, children, and patients affected by tuberculosis, contributing significantly to public health outcomes in the region.

“For almost a decade, our work has been driven by a commitment to serve those most in need,” said Abi Kebra Belaye, MSF Head of Mission in Sierra Leone. “We leave with a deep sense of fulfilment and pride in the achievements made in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and the communities we’ve served.”

MSF’s departure marks the end of a transformative chapter in Sierra Leone’s healthcare landscape, with local authorities now expected to continue building on the foundation laid during the partnership.
