Who we Are

medica Liberia (mL) formerly medica mondiale Liberia is a non-governmental women’s rights organization working in Liberia. Our organization offers support to women and girls affected by sexual gender-based violence (SGBV) and is involved with programming on women’s agency and leadership. Since 2006, medica Liberia has been implementing programs for women and girls in Liberia’s South-eastern parts and recently extended its coverage to Montserrado and Margibi Counties respectively, through funding from the German Government and other donors. The organisation’s vision is a just and violence-free society in which women and girls live in dignity. As a feminist organisation, mL advocates for the rights of Liberian women and girls and the end of S/GBV at all levels of society and politics.

Introduction

Medica Liberia is running 3 years projects in three counties namely, Montserrado, Margibi; and Sinoe: Strengthening communities and institutions to promote the psychosocial health of women and girls affected by violence and increase their protection from gender-based violence in Montserrado and Margibi Counties in the context of the Covid-19 crisis and Strengthening Direct SGBV Prevention and Response Services for Survivors in Rural Communities in Sinoe County, and ‘ Concerted Action for Zero Tolerance against S/GBV in the Mano river region’’

The project is financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), Pro Victimis, Bread for the World and medicor Foundation and builds upon the results and experiences of a previous project over the past years.
