  THE VISION OF SALON KRIO​
 
The vision of Salon Krio is to see all Sierra Leoneans at home and in the diaspora who already know how to speak Krio, learn how to read and write it as well, the correct way. That way, it will become a vibrant language that will enable Sierra Leoneans to write poems, short stories, plays, books and even publish newspapers in their mother tongue or lingua franca. This vision can be achieved when Krio is taught and studied in schools, from kindergarten up to university level.

OUR MISSION

​

The mission of SalonKrio is to help Sierra Leoneans, and anyone else, who want to learn to read and write the Krio language to do so correctly. This language is what gives Sierra Leoneans our identity and we believe that anyone who can speak the language should also know how to read and write it so that we, our descendants and generations yet unborn, will be proud of what God gave us. To meet this mission, we will also raise funds to help those who want to translate or write anything in Krio.
