Description: (UNCLASSIFIED) Liberia’s infrastructure has been in shambles for decades, mostly due to two recent civil wars and regional instability. Vital services including disaster relief and an operating health care system are nonfunctioning, causing natural disasters and epidemics to be even more dangerous. Intense summer rains often lead to flooding, mostly around the capital of Monrovia. Flooding in this region often destroys homes leaving many displaced. In addition, the healthcare system is highly dependent on foreign aid and assistance with Agencies and NGOs providing 90% of health services.
