Our Approach

Partners In Health came to Liberia to lend our expertise in an area we know well—fighting infectious diseases. When the Ebola outbreak was taking hold in West Africa in 2014, the Liberian government, aware of our background in infectious diseases, requested our assistance in the southeast region of the country. 

In the years since, we have helped Liberians recover from this life-threatening disease by strengthening the country’s health infrastructure, tackling the systemic issues that contributed to the outbreak and its magnitude and laying the groundwork to make health care more dignified and accessible for those who need it the most. 

We’ve come to see our work in Liberia as proof of a concept—that, in close partnership with the government, we can transform an area with the lowest number of health care providers in the country into a vibrant health system with top-notch care for all.
