Liberia

The Challenge

USAID’s programs in Liberia aim to help Liberians resolve conflict and promote stability, recovery and democratic reform. Although peaceful elections were held in October 2005, decades of destabilization, poor governance, and the consequences of 14 years of brutal conflict constitute overwhelming challenges to Liberia's recovery process. USAID programs help to reinforce community conflict mitigation capacity by establishing social and economic conditions necessary to facilitate community reintegration and infrastructure rehabilitation; increase access to improved basic education and health services; advance inclusive governance by increasing public sector transparency and accountability, re-inculcating the rule of law, and increasing the effectiveness of civil society to monitor the government, advocate reforms and resolve conflicts; and restore and improve basic economic activity and livelihoods with attention to agriculture and sustainable management of natural resources.
