Nearly two decades since the end of the civil wars Liberia's children are still suffering. 2022 is on track to see one of the highest numbers of reported rape cases in the last five years. The vast majority of victims are under 18. Reporter Evelyn Kpadeh Seagbeh looks at why rape continues.
In River Cess County, reporter Eric Opa Doue finds children struggling to get an education. He visits five schools that have been shut down and finds others barely functioning. The crisis in Liberia's rural schools continues.

And we hear from two internationally acclaimed investigative journalists Ruona Meyer of the Solutions Journalism Network and Idris Akinbajo of Nigerian newsroom Premium Times.
