Vision
To ensure peaceful and long-term democratic political representation of the people of Sierra Leone through independent registration and balanced monitoring of political parties
Mission
The PPRC exists to engender, among political parties in Sierra Leone, a spirit of accountable political pluralism as well as strong democratic principles in the political parties. The PPRC will provide a forum for conflict resolution and thus foster political reconciliation and national cohesion.
Successes
The PPRC has performed well in the discharge of its mandate through the promotion of democracy and building of a culture of peace within and among political parties.
Code of Conduct
The Political Parties Registration Commission (PPRC) is now referred herein as the Political Parties Regulation Commission through Constitutional Instrument No. 22 of 2022 and the Political Parties Act No. 25 of 2022.
Challenges
In a bid to achieve its mandate and the desire to unite and assist all political parties in their efforts to attain their aims and objectives, the Commission has been faced with several challenges; thus creating the opportunity for the reformation of the Political Parties Act.
