- Title: Children smile while eating fresh mangos
- Description: Children smile while eating fresh mangos outside their mud house in Nyeamah village, 41 km south of Bokomu District, in Gbarpolu County. Liberia. In 2012, Liberia is still recovering from a ruinous 14-year civil war that ended in 2003. Although the Government is working to rebuild the countryâs destroyed infrastructure, many Liberians continue to live without access to basic services. The influx of approximately 178,000 refugees from Côte d'Ivoire, who fled their own country after controversy surrounding the 28 November 2010 presidential election turned violent, has only exacerbated the situation. Waning supplies of safe drinking water and food, inadequate sanitation facilities, constricted access to medical care and overcrowding all threaten the health of Liberian and Ivorian children alike. The education of many children has also been disrupted because refugees stay in schools when there are not enough families to host them. The poor condition of roads makes it difficult for aid to reach remote areas, where many of the most vulnerable families live. Many of the refugees have returned home, but thousands have stayed back, often hosted by Liberian communities and families, both in rural and urban areas of the country. NGOs and the Liberian Government continue to work hard to provide life-saving services for both Liberian citizens and Ivorian refugees. happy, happiness, smiles, smiling
