Welcome to this special edition of Democracy in Focus, a collaboration between New Narratives and Front Page Africa. I’m Anthony Stephens.

As plans for Liberia’s war and economic crimes courts get underway, we are running a series of special interviews with Liberian and international justice experts and stakeholders about how the courts could work.

In this interview, I speak with veteran Liberian human rights lawyer Taiwan Gongloe. A long time defenders of human rights in Liberia, Gongloe headed the Bar Association and played a key role in drafting the bill that went to the Legislature to establish the courts.

He also ran for president in last year’s election.

Funding for this podcast comes from the Swedish and US embassies in Liberia and the American Jewish World Service. See more of our collaborations with media in West Africa at www.newnarratives.org
