Mining & Environment: ArcelorMittal Liberia’s pollution case in Yekepa/Nimba is escalating as EPA fines AML US$400,000 and orders an extra US$100,000 for monitoring, after farmers say waste has blocked their farmland. Extractives Governance: Government and AML stakeholders met on a US$5m annual Community Development Fund under AML’s Third Mineral Development Agreement, with county leadership from Nimba, Bong and Grand Bassa. Energy & Industry: President Boakai renewed tariff suspensions on qualifying off-grid solar products to cut import costs and spur rural electrification and productive use. Finance & Credit: The Central Bank’s Enhanced Collateral Registry is expected to expand lending by improving collateral verification and reducing double-pledging risks. Climate & Forests: Liberia received its validated National Carbon Market Policy, pushing the country toward carbon-credit rules that must protect forests and community rights. Agriculture & Trade: Deputy Minister John Dumelo urged a “borderless Africa” to move farm goods more easily, citing visa limits, tariffs and road gaps. Youth & Climate: LCOY Liberia 2026 wrapped with a youth statement pushing accountability and green financing for NDC 3.0 implementation. Health & Infrastructure: Jackson Fiah Doe Hospital in Tappita is being upgraded toward a second national referral hospital to strengthen care outside Monrovia. Shipping Security: Two Liberia-flagged tankers were reported hit in the Strait of Hormuz, underscoring risks to global energy logistics. Women’s Safety in Concessions: LAC expanded sexual harassment prevention into communities around its concession, including schools and camps.
