As part of its support to Government of Sierra Leone's (GoSL) efforts to tackle gender inequality, DFID has approved a four year Support to Adolescent Girls Empowerment (SAGE) programme to respond to the multiple and inter-related disadvantages that adolescent girls in Sierra Leone continue to experience and which restrict their life chances.
The Support to Adolescent Girls Empowerment programme (BC approved 6th June 2016) delivers a combination of interventions to support the social and economic empowerment of vulnerable adolescent girls in Sierra Leone.
It will also contribute to the building of community-level commitment to the protection and empowerment of adolescent girls.

The components are: 1.
A safe spaces programme implemented by BRAC Sierra Leone; 2.
Sexual and reproductive health and protection services delivered by UNFPA; 3.
Support for the implementation of the National FGM Reduction Strategy; 4.
A flexible fund to provide small grants for innovative or strategic initiatives that have the potential to empower adolescent girls It is proposed that the Supplier will manage a Strategic Opportunities Catalytic (SOC) Fund which will have two strands.

The second will provide a flexible fund to deliver grants in support of initiatives which offer innovative or catalytic potential to contribute to the social and economic empowerment of adolescent girls.
