Chinese Embassy provides supplies for the Ministry of Gender and Children's Affairs in July 2020

📋 Staff Comments

There is a discrepancy between sources as to when the commitment/completion date took place for the donation of the items. The Official Chinese Embassy article states the handover of the donations took place July 7, 2020 rather than July 29, 2020, which explains why the commitment and completion date is coded as so for both. Update 2023: The Xinhua article, Dow Jones Article, and official Chinese embassy source as well as all Sierra Leone media outlets state that the donation was done in honor of the forty-ninth anniversary of the commencement of diplomatic relations between Sierra Leone and China, which is July 29th. The commitment and completion dates have been changed to July 29th, 2020. AidData has estimated the transaction amount for this donation based on price catalogues from the World Health Organization (WHO). Please see the TUFF Methodology for additional details.
