We deliver high-quality aid where needs are greatest. When we started our advocacy efforts after meeting our legal requirements

In 2018, humanitarian needs were critical. They still are – and we’re still there, advocating for people with property rights issues and supporting them as they regain their status as community members and a new future..

We stand up for people in need of equal rights. SHAPE-Liberia is a determined advocate for people regardless of sex, ethnicity, religion, economic status or political affiliation. When we witness injustices, we intervene/alert the appropriate legal authority. We promote and defend people's rights and dignity in local communities, with national governments and in the international arena.

Preserving dignity

The community people we work with are strong, dignified and resourceful. Most are able and willing to fend for themselves. But sometimes, when a person has lost everything, it can be hard to retain a sense of dignity and confidence. We work with them to make sure that the support they and their children receive is just and legally protected to meet their particular needs.

Defending rights

We help them find safety and hope in their new situation, no matter their age, gender, ethnicity, religious or political beliefs, or disabilities.
