Vision

A Liberia where people, communities, institutions and enterprises have the capacity, knowledge and opportunities to create sustainable and inclusive development.

Mission

To strengthen Liberia's communities, institutions, schools and enterprises through education, professional training, research, data, community development, digital skills, enterprise support and effective project implementation.

Core Purpose

CODEC exists to help close the practical capacity gap between development priorities and implementation. It provides the people, tools, knowledge and systems required to understand local needs, design workable responses, build capacity, implement programs and measure results.

Core Values

Liberia Development Context and Strategic Relevance

CODEC is designed for a development environment in which national planning emphasizes economic transformation, human-capital development, infrastructure and basic services, governance, agriculture, social development and inclusive growth. The current national development dashboard shows active projects across these sectors and provides county-level visibility into development activity.

The national planning process has also emphasized county and district consultation and locally anchored development planning. A development-support initiative documented by the Liberia Development Dashboard reports consultations across all 15 counties and 166 administrative districts and the production of County Development Agendas. This reinforces the importance of local data, participatory planning and implementation capacity — areas in which CODEC is designed to operate. 

The development environment also contains practical demand for agriculture and livelihood support, private-sector development, digital skills, education and community-level implementation. Current projects tracked on the national dashboard include agricultural livelihood and climate-smart agriculture activities, digital education and vocational training, and food-safety/value-chain initiatives.
