This conference is not just a gathering—it is a historic bridge to unite Liberians worldwide and invite them to take active ownership of their country’s future.
As we stand at the crossroads of national renewal, let us remember that Liberia’s future can only be built together—by every citizen, both at home and abroad.
The time for dialogue is over. It’s time for action. The promises we make today must be the foundation of a prosperous tomorrow.
For too long, we’ve prioritized building the state over building the nation. Today, we begin a new chapter—one where every Liberian, regardless of where they live, plays an active role in our shared progress.
As a nation, we’ve inherited deep challenges, but I am confident that, through collective resolve, we can overcome them and create a Liberia that reflects the ideals of freedom, equality, and opportunity for all.
We must work to transform not just our economy but the very foundation of our society. Inclusive growth, social reconciliation, and governance reform must lead our efforts.
To the Diaspora—your remittances have kept families fed and children educated. But now, we need you to do more: teach us to fish, so we can sustainably feed ourselves.
Liberia will only reach its potential when we combine our global partnerships with national unity. Together, we will rebrand Liberia, restore its glory, and build a prosperous future.
The path to true national healing requires more than infrastructure—it demands reconciliation, justice, and a commitment to leaving no one behind.
We must strengthen our partnerships with countries like the United States, but let us also show that we are worthy of those partnerships through good governance, anti-corruption efforts, and commitment to our people.
