Disaster nursing in Liberia: Leveraging international training for workforce development and infrastructure improvement

Abstract

Liberia faces a variety of disasters, some of which are particularly problematic due to its socio-economic conditions, infrastructure limitations, and environmental factors. In an increasingly interconnected world, international training sessions and seminars have emerged as critical platforms for fostering global knowledge exchange, professional development, and collaboration across diverse sectors. These programs are designed to provide participants with specialized skills and insights in healthcare, sustainable development, while promoting cross-cultural understanding. This paper explores the growing trend of international training programs, with an emphasis on Liberia, by highlighting their key characteristics, types, benefits, and notable examples.
