Call for Expression of Interest

Action Against Hunger is operating in Liberia since 1990 following the first Civil War, and has become one of the main humanitarian and development actors in the country focusing on the links between nutrition, health, mental health, psychosocial support and protection (MHPSS-P). Other areas of intervention include food security and livelihoods (FSL), water sanitation and hygiene (WASH), and advocacy to address the underlying and root causes of nutrition insecurity. Action Against Hunger has been created in 1979 and is one of the major actors in fighting hunger operating in around 50 countries around the world. Action Against Hunger works in Liberia have evolved significantly over the years from classic humanitarian to post-crisis response during the civil wars period (1990-2003), and then progressively moving to a development approach based on ensuring the provision of nutrition services within the health system; promoting and implementing FSL and WASH interventions; and developing strong partnerships such as those within the Liberia INGO Forum (LINGO), Liberia WASH Consortium (LWC), local civil society and national NGOs as well as the Government of Liberia. Action Against Hunger has also developed a strong acceptance within the communities in the areas of interventions. Throughout the in-country presence period, Action Against Hunger continued to respond to emergency needs, such as the Ivory Coast Refugee crisis in 2012 as well as the 2014-16 Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) epidemic and Covid-19 in 2020-22.
