Development Education Network-Liberia (DEN-L) is a local non-governmental, non-partisan, secular and non-profit-making organization established for facilitating programmes that promote grassroots empowerment, economic justice, democratic development and gender equity for a just and peaceful Liberia. We are located in the City of Gbarnga, Bong County, Central Liberia, West Africa and work in three of Liberia's fifteen political sub-divisions—Bong, Lofa, and Nimba counties.
Our Vision
Our Mission
As its mission, the organization works to build a constituency of people-to-people formations in pursuit of grassroots empowerment, economic justice, democratic development and gender equity for a just and peaceful Liberia.
DEN-L envisages a Liberia at peace with itself and its neighbors
Our Beliefs

Our Goals
- If we work tegether with the world's poor to change unjust policies, structures, and practices at all levels they can take control of their own lives.
