Liberia Today: Young Lives in Crisis The West African REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA, once a prosperous and internationally respected democratic nation, was ravaged by nearly 24 years of a brutal revolution and subsequent civil wars from 1980 to 2003. When the dust settled, the resultant mayhem and man’s inhumanity to man had left Liberia’s economy and basic infrastructures in shambles; claimed some 250,000 lives; driven about two million Liberians into exile; rendered an estimated 1.7 million children and youth fatherless, motherless, homeless and hopeless; and produced an embittered population mostly in tatters. Like scores of African countries today, Liberia is a broken nation. Its people are faced with some of the most severe challenges ever experienced in their land: a devastating healthcare crisis that knows no bound; socio-economic structures, decades in the making, shredded by political chaos; and the national educational system nearing total collapse. |
