The capacity of the GoL, gender equality advocates and other national stakeholders strengthened to assess progress and accelerate the implementation of continental and global normative and policy frameworks
There are governance deficits in Liberia which severely hamper delivery of public services. Persistent corruption and lack of accountability triggers low public confidence in the legitimacy of national governance. The quality and coverage of public services, especially on civil registry and vital statistics has not improved and in some areas economic conditions are deteriorating. The civil service continues to have huge challenges that are associated with weak payroll compliance, relatively low salaries, poor alignment between skills and functions. A Liberia government document noted key challenges of the civil service as belonging to three broad categories: i) Not regulated, ii) Low performance and wages; Mismatch between positions grade and remuneration and also lack of job descriptions
