Our Team
We are creating sustainable change in West Africa. We work towards empowering communities and families to live productive lives while ensuring the wellbeing of natural and the environment.
At VOSIEDA, we tackle problems by exploring various viewpoints, questioning common assumptions, and stretching limits. Our approach involves innovation, challenging the norms, and dismantling the entrenched poverty barriers to address the latest issues of poverty. Our methods combine forward-thinking strategies with practical implementation, strengthening our ability to suggest effective solutions throughout Liberia and the wider Mano River Union Basin area in West Africa.
