A 14-year-long civil war that lasted until 2003 destroyed large swathes of Liberia’s infrastructure and economy. Just as the country began to recover from the effects of the civil war, the next crisis hit: the outbreak of Ebola in March 2014. More than 11,000 people died during the severe epidemic. Today, living conditions remain difficult for the majority of the population: The lack of access to medical care, education and work are particularly noticeable in rural areas. More than half of the people live in poverty.
