The Sierra Leone Poverty Reduction Strategy was completed in 2005 and presented to donors at the 4th Consultative Group (CG) Meeting held in London in November, 2005. At that CG meeting, it was agreed that annual CG meetings will be held in Sierra Leone to review the progress and address challenges to implementation of the Poverty Reduction Strategy. Consequently, the Government of Sierra Leone and its development partners held the first CG in Freetown on 29th - 30th November 2006 at the Bintumani hotel. This meeting was held to review the Sierra Leone Poverty Reduction Strategy (SL-PRS).
