Coming up in this episode ..  

As plans for Liberia’s war and economic crimes courts’ get underway, we speak to experts on the major issues court designers will have to consider.

 Who will be tried? How much international involvement is needed? And what are the security challenges? One thing is already clear - funding will be limited. And some worry the courts are already losing momentum.

And… as mpox is declared a global health emergency, is Liberia ready? 

Welcome to our program looking at the state of Liberian democracy. It’s a collaboration with Front Page Africa with reporting from journalists in the New Narratives program. 

Funding for this podcast comes from the Swedish and US embassies in Liberia and the American Jewish World Service. See more of our collaborations with media in West Africa at www.newnarratives.org
