Programs In Liberia

EWMI conducted the C-DRILL Program with their partner Prison Fellowships Liberia from 2010 to 2012. The overall goal of the two-year project was to prepare Liberians to address the root causes of a conflict in the community before a dispute becomes violent or before an individual is arrested and placed in extended pre-trial detention.

Ongoing EWMI takes pride in its commitment to its local partners, and established the Partner Legacy Support Program in 2013 as a mechanism to continue to fund its partners around the world. To date, EWMI has accepted donations from individuals, foundations, and donor advised funds for partners in Cambodia, Kosovo and Liberia that promote access to justice for the most vulnerable groups in various political, economic and cultural contexts.
