With the outbreak of the Ebola virus in Sierra Leone in May 2014, schools were ordered to be closed down by the government in order to control the spread of the virus.
As a result children became idle as they were no longer educationally engaged. The government of Sierra Leone launched a radio education initiative in October 2014 with the aim of providing quality educational engagement until schools are set to reopen at the end of March 2015.
Develop Africa and other organizations have partnered with the government of Sierra Leone in order to provide access to this initiative, with the provision of radios to families in Freetown.
