Since the end of the civil war ten years ago, Sierra Leone is experiencing a building boom. Once such project is Bumbuna Dam which produces 40 MW of electricity, however, the poor state of the national grid mean that not all of this electricity can be used. Railways lines and raids have also been improved and mines opened. However, many jobs are temporary and much of the profits have gone to a limited few. In addition despite growth adult literacy is still low and infant mortality high.
