There is no military component or support. The largest budget items are recruitment and training, as well as a judicial infrastructural initiative.
  • This programme aims to ensure that justice and security policies and systems are in place to deliver effective and timely services to citizens in line with Liberia’s international and national obligations.
  • This activity’s results include: - Infrastructure, equipment, and systems critical for command, control and operational response established for the Regional Hub. - Justice and security service providers at the regional hubs level provide fair and accountable professional services. - Justice sector institutions have adequate human capacity to provide key justice services. - Victims of sexual and gender based violence provided prosecutorial, psychosocial, educational, medical and socio-economic support services. - The Bureau of Corrections develops a comprehensive strategy to ensure that it upgrades the quality of services rendered through increased man-power training.
