Sara Beysolow Nyanti Becomes CENTAL Board Member

 The Board of Directors of the Center for Transparency and Accountability in Liberia (CENTAL) has appointed Madam Sara Beysolow Nyanti, former UNICEF Resident Representative to the Republic of Yemen, as member. 

In her letter of interest addressed to the Board of Directors of CENTAL in August 2020, Madam Nyanti congratulated the Board for work being done to increase accountability and transparency in governance and collaboration with stakeholders in fighting against corruption in the country. 

“This is fundamental to good governance and ensuring the fulfillment of the rights of the people of Liberia. As a leader within the United Nations System who has pioneered groundbreaking work in strengthening risk management and fiduciary systems in the worst humanitarian situation in the world in Yemen, I relate very well with the task at hand for the Board Members of the Center for Transparency and Accountability in Liberia (CENTAL),” she said in the communication.
