USADF's Liberia Program

 

The focus of USADF’s activities in Liberia is to  help re-start economic growth in marginalized areas following two decades of civil unrest.  USADF programs aim to stimulate job creation and improve income levels by investing in cooperatives and enterprises in the areas of fishing, agriculture and agro-processing.

The USADF re-started operations in Liberia in May 2006 at the invitation of President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (click here to view related story).  USADF was among the first foreign entities to establish a development program in Liberia, initiating operations in Liberia within 300 days of the current government taking office.
