Liberia has been devastated by years of civil war. In the few places where education is available, the priority for families is on educating boys.

This project will support women's efforts to improve their skills and further their education by supplementing their tuition costs. Recipients will pursue courses that prepare them to play a role in the economic, social, and political development of Liberia. Women's participation is critical to a peaceful future for Liberia.
