Foreign Policy

Liberia maintains a special relationship with the United States, rooted in its founding history. It is a strong supporter of ECOWAS and the UN, having been both a recipient and contributor to peacekeeping operations. The UN Mission in Liberia (UNMIL) was one of the largest peacekeeping operations in UN history.

Monrovia advocates for post-conflict recovery support, democratic governance, and the rights of war-affected populations. Liberia is a member of the Mano River Union with Guinea and Sierra Leone.

Allies

MUN Delegate Guide

As Liberia, draw on your unique history as a bridge between Africa and the Americas. Emphasize your founding membership in the UN and your post-conflict recovery experience. Advocate for peacebuilding, transitional justice, and sustained international support for post-conflict states.

Ally with the United States (your most important bilateral partner), Sierra Leone, and Ghana. In ECOWAS, support democratic norms and collective security. On development, push for debt relief, anti-corruption measures, and investment in human capital. Your Ebola experience gives you credibility on global health preparedness -- use it to advocate for stronger health systems.
