Since the pathfinding stage of robotics in 2017, Team Liberia has been a master link in spreading the importance of STEM and robotics among the youth of Liberia. Team Liberia believes that in order to build roads, bridges, infrastructures, provide reliable energy, industrialize Liberia with our natural resources, decrease the low ratio of medical doctors per patients, supply clean water, retrench the unemployment rate of the over two (2) million youths, and the overall rebuilding of Liberia, the youth in a collaborative manner from the 15 subdivisions of the country must venture into STEM and execute its many innovations.
