Message from the Superintendent
The County Development Agenda reflects the overriding desire of the Citizens of Gbarpolu County to be active participants in the noble national endeavor known as the Poverty Reduction Strategy 2008-2011.
That document and process can be referred to as the blueprint of national reconstruction, the roadmap for Liberia’s development, a golden opportunity for growth. The CDA is Gbarpolu County’s contribution to the PRS effort, wherein the people stand up and express their desires for development, and make a commitment to helping achieve their collective goals.
Like the PRS, this CDA identifies four priority areas, or “Pillars”, of our effort to reduce poverty: Peace and Security, Economic Revitalization, Governance and the Rule of Law, and Infrastructure and Basic Services. The Citizens of Gbarpolu County have identified Pillar Four as the area most in need of immediate action.
As with any effort of this size and importance, preparing the County Development Agenda of Gbarpolu County has been a challenging exercise. It involved the active participation of numerous partners in local and international civil society, local and national Government, and the private sector. Additionally, Liberia’s donor partners made great contributions to the process.
I extend my warmest thanks and appreciation to all the hard-working citizens of the county who took the time to participate in these consultations about our collective future. Special thanks go out to our donor partners for their engagement and support, to the the staff of the Central Administration of the County, and most especially to the staff of UNMIL Civil Affairs.
The citizens are grateful for your assistance as we embark on this historic process to transform Bomi County, and indeed, the Republic of Liberia.
