Mercy Ships et Libéria

La dernière fois que l’Africa Mercy a amarré le port de Monrovia c’était en 2018, mais nous espérons y revenir dans les années à suivre ! Notre souhait est de travailler aux côtés des nations qui nous invitent pour apporter espoir et guérison par le biais de soins médicaux et une aide au renforcement des capacités médicales, ainsi que des formations des professionnels de la santé. Nous aimons la Libéria et nous attendons avec impatience le jour où nous pourrons revenir sur son rivage.

Liberia

The current desire and plan for Mercy Ships is for one of our hospital ships to return to Liberia in the coming years.

Mercy Ships is a global charity, which uses hospital ships to bring hope and healing to nations who are holistically building stronger healthcare systems.

The volunteer professionals of Mercy Ships have been honored to partner with Liberia’s Ministry of Health and local and international partners in the past by offering immediate surgical intervention onboard the Mercy Ships and sharing advice and resources to build Liberia’s own capacity and we look forward to doing so again.

Detailed plans on the surgeries, dental, and medical capacity building training that will be offered in Liberia will be created based on our assessments and with input from the team on the ground currently.

More details will be added on this site when available.

  • Population

    5,072,025 people live in Liberia.

  • Healthcare

    .07 Physicians per 1000 people. In 2010 stats showed that per 1000 people, .8 hospital beds were available.

    Mercy Ships provided free surgeries to over 3,000 people during our last visit in 2008.

  • Cost
