The West African country of Liberia faces an urgent shortage of skilled health professionals. Skills training and preparation are the best prevention for addressing pandemics and public health challenges.

AAI has partnered with William V.S. Tubman University’s Nursing Program in Liberia to raise funds to provide scholarships to train Liberian nursing students.

The scholarships will help to build a strong and effective health workforce through the training of skilled nurses for the long-term care and to respond to emergency situations like infectious diseases.
