Sierra Leone highlights 'Feed Salone' program to tackle conflict-driven food insecurity
Sierra Leone's representative used the Security Council press stakeout to draw a direct link between armed conflict and acute food insecurity and to promote his country's national program described in the transcript as "FeedSalon" (transcript variants include "Fitzalone" and "Faith saloon"). He said Sierra Leone convened a high-level open debate on conflict-induced hunger during its Security Council presidency and presented the program as a national contribution to regional resilience.

The representative described Feed Salone's goals as boosting agricultural productivity, reducing dependence on food imports, alleviating hunger and building resilient food systems. Planned investments he listed include mechanized farming, irrigation, creation of seed banks, improved roads from farm to market, and targeted support for women and youth in agriculture. "By increasing local food production and creating jobs, Feed Salone fights hunger today and tackles root causes of conflict for tomorrow," he said.

He framed food security as an element of peacebuilding: a well-fed population, he said, is "more peaceful" and less likely to compete over scarce resources. The transcript does not provide a detailed budget, timeline or implementing ministry for the program; those specifics were not given during the stakeout. The representative called on international partners to join Sierra Leone's effort to link food security and peacebuilding.
