May 15, 2020: To enable traditional leaders to reach the grassroot communities, UN Women within the framework of the Spotlight Initiative on Friday, May 15, 2020 donated ten motorbikes to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the National Council of Chiefs and Elders to facilitate the monitoring of the closure of the bush schools and alternative livelihood support.
 
Additionally, in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic affecting Liberia, the traditional leaders will raise awareness on the virus and its implications on sexual and gender-based violence in the counties.
