About PaNBA
Citizens working for transparency and justice.
Pay No Bribe Animators Sierra Leone, also known as PaNBA S/L, is a social accountability, anti-corruption and development civil society organization established on the 20th of November 2018.
Our Background
The organization was founded by a group of citizens who worked as community animators during the three-year Pay No Bribe campaign.
The Pay No Bribe campaign was funded by the Department for International Development and implemented by the Anti-Corruption Commission of Sierra Leone and its partners.
Why PaNBA Exists
