  2. Welcome • The ONE Liberia Student League (OLSL) is an initiative coordinated by Liberian students. • Our mission is to build a united Liberia by empowering and engaging Liberians through a process of collective action and interaction. • Our vision is to foster a culture in which all Liberians truly share in nationalistic principles and values.

  3. Welcome • This initiative comes as a result of urgent needs arising in Liberian society due to the past fifteen years of civil unrest. • We will campaign against the use of class, tribalism, politics, or any other tool that may be used to divide our people.

  4. Welcome • As students from a wide range of backgrounds, the members of OLSL may not share similar views on our country's key issues, but we all share a vision of the great nation Liberia will one day be. • Together, we look forward to forecasting the dream of a people united under one vision.
