The European Union (EU) on Tuesday donated several items of office equipment to eight local and international organizations, including the National Teachers Association of Liberia (NTAL) and Liberia Translation and Literacy Organization (LIBTRALO). Presenting the donation at the EU delegation’s headquarters in Mamba Point, Monrovia, an EU spokesperson said the equipment and other items were intended to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the beneficiary organizations. He thanked the EU for reposing confidence in the IOM, mainly in the logistical component of the mission. The beneficiaries lauded the efforts of the EU for what they all termed as a historic and timely gesture. Election observation is a vital EU activity aiming to promote democracy, human rights and the rule of law worldwide.
