Jihoon Yoo MSc Environment & Sustainable Development Freetown, Sierra Leone Granville Brook Dumpsite in Freetown. Waste pickers livelihoods depend on the dumpsite, having to breathe in toxic fumes day in and day out. The smoke comes from spontaneous combustion due to the heat, and these pictures were taken very early in the morning. As the day goes on, the smoke becomes thicker, as you can see in the last photo from afar. The community of Colbot lives downhill from the dumpsite, and during the rainy season a lot of the waste is washed down. This results in the spreading of diseases and exacerbated flooding due to lack of drainage and the waste blocking drainage channels.

Yanna Sun MSc Environment & Sustainable Development Freetown, Sierra Leone Stone Mining- Main Livelihood and Major Driver of Risks in Moyiba These two photos were taken in one of the uphill clusters in Moyiba which named Garden. In 1961, the Limba tribe arrived in the area and established Moyiba adjacent to the pre-existing settlement Kamada Farm. Due to the abundance of the stone in the area, stone mining became the predominant livelihood activity in Moyiba. At the same time, stone mining has become a major driver of risk to the community, such as deforestation, water contamination and rockfall.
