What happened

The Millennium Challenge Corporation is providing foreign assistance and technical expertise to Liberia across several sectors, including energy, health, education, and governance. The support includes ongoing work on a second compact focused on energy and critical minerals, and a five-year bilateral health cooperation agreement valued at $173 million.
