The training initiative, which encompassed over 3,000 election security officers, focused on crucial areas such as use of force, crowd control, and the rights of voters. This comprehensive approach has empowered officers to understand and uphold human rights standards while maintaining order during electoral processes.
The positive impact of this training is evident in the marked decrease in human rights violations reported during the recent elections. This success underscores the importance of continuous training and capacity-building within the police force to ensure a more peaceful and democratic future for Liberia.
By equipping officers with the knowledge and skills to uphold human rights, Liberia is taking crucial steps towards building a more just and equitable society.
