About Us

Research. Education. Development.

Transforming Africa Through Research, Education and Development Support.

Established in February 2021, GonetAfrica, Inc. is a non-governmental organization (NGO) registered with the Liberia Business Registry (LBR) and accredited by the Liberia Ministry of Education. Specializing in comprehensive assessments, evaluations, and capacity-building initiatives, we provide strategic insights to inform decision-making and development priorities for a diverse array of local and international organizations, government ministries, and agencies.

Our expertise spans various domains, including social, gender, and education research, as well as personal and professional development programs tailored for individual and institutional growth. Notably, we were engaged by the SOS Children’s Villages Liberia to serve as the technical and training partner for the Liberia National Youth Power Summit, funded by KFW Stiftung. Through this initiative, we trained 48 young individuals in leadership, self-esteem, and public speaking, empowering them to drive positive change in their communities.

Additionally, in collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Liberia and the Liberia Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), we conducted a needs assessment for persons with disabilities (PWDs) near the Grebo-Krahn National Park. Subsequently, we trained 61 PWDs and other disadvantaged groups in handicraft and business management skills, facilitating their economic empowerment and contributing to sustainable forest management.
Our commitment to women’s empowerment is evidenced by our partnership with Bea Mountain Mining Company (BMMC) and the Darblo Clan Project Management Committee, where we provided business and financial management training to 120 women. Through the establishment of a Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA), funded by BMMC, we facilitated access to microloans for sustainable livelihoods.

Furthermore, we were hired by Plan International Liberia (PIL) and its development partners to conduct an endline evaluation of the PIL Country Strategy (CS 2019-2024), assessing contributions to gender transformation and children’s rights across five counties, including Lofa, Nimba, Bomi, Margibi and Montserrado.

With a track record of over three thousand individuals trained and supported, including young people, professionals, educators, and organizations, GonetAfrica remains committed to enhancing productivity and development in Liberia and beyond. Our team of over 25 skilled professionals is equipped to deliver high-quality research, evaluation, and capacity-building services to diverse stakeholders. Individual staff have conducted research and evaluation services to several development institutions, including European Union, United Nations Agencies, ECOWAS Commission, and a number of civil society organizations.
