Also, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) for logistical and related support during the consultative meetings in Nimba, Bong and Lofa Counties respectively and the United Nations Mission in Liberia (UNMIL). Finally, to the participants from the various counties, normally unheralded and acknowledged in matters such as this, we say in the proverbial Liberian jargon ‘thank you yah’ for taking time off your engaging schedules to honor our invitation to participate in these meetings.
