Monrovia, Liberia – A report detailing Orange Liberia Digital Center’s (ODC) 2025 accomplishments shows significant improvements in digital skills education and innovation throughout Liberia. Zaza Mulbah, Senior Manager at Orange Digital Center (ODC), delivered the report on January 30, 2026, in Monrovia.
He stated that the organization’s mission is to empower Liberians with the high-octane digital skills necessary to dominate the 21st-century economy. He claimed that ODC Liberia, one of 17 innovation hubs in the Middle East and Africa, is an incubator for the future rather than just a training facility.
He noted that that the 2025 fiscal year was characterized by remarkable operational efficiency and explosive growth, effectively moving from foundational development to a national scale, continuously exceeding prior benchmarks, and reaching the 2024 target of 2,750 beneficiaries, demonstrating that the capacity for impact is growing exponentially year by year.
In 2025 alone, “we reached 3,035 beneficiaries, surpassing our 2025 targets by 101.17%. The crew completed 44 training sessions, exceeding the goal of 21 by an astounding 209.52%, and the company increased the training output for the year,” he stated.
Mulbah emphasized the continuity and momentum, pointing out that September was known as the “Golden Month” and reached a peak of 620 beneficiaries. The Center maintained high-velocity productivity, meeting or above monthly targets in half of the fiscal year, despite the usual early-year slump.
Every Liberian now has a digital gateway to the services thanks to the smooth integration of all programs and applications into the “Max It App,” according to the senior manager of the Orange Liberia Digital Center. The study also shows a high percentage of female engagement, which led to technical parity with an overall membership of 36.74%. When the second ODC club at Williams V.S. Tubman University was launched, the enrollment rate approached parity at 47%.
Orange Liberia’s connectivity, he stressed, is about linking people to opportunity, dignity, and hope, not just technology. Mulbah reflected on 2025, a year with the theme “Charting a New Course,” and said the company has stayed true to its goal of promoting sustainable, inclusive development throughout Liberia. Four key priority areas—Digital Inclusion & Education, Health, Empowerment, and Culture & Sport—were used to implement the strategic commitment, “Engage for Change.”
With 59 applications and 10 schools chosen for a quality-focused intake, this pillar continues to be the cornerstone of our approach to lessen regional inequities and promote innovation. With a footprint now including all 15 counties, the expansion enables the business to attain 100% nationwide coverage, he explained.
He cited the following more significant initiatives: Wologizi Computer Lab: The Center set up a fully functional lab in Marshall, Margibi County, in collaboration with the Clar Weah Hope Foundation. 200 girls are directly served by this facility, which offers a specialized area for distance learning and digital literacy and is furnished with 13 desktop stations and digital learning resources.
WikiChallenge for African Schools: “Our national winner is JESCOR Learning Center.” children between the ages of 9 and 13 participated in this program, which led to a €2,500 stipend and enhanced digital research abilities for more than 500 children. Mulbah stated that this year’s four main goal areas—Digital Inclusion & Education, Health, Empowerment, and Culture & Sports—realized our strategy promise, “Engage for Change.”
“In order to alleviate the financial strain on households and enhance student attendance, we provided 5,000 school kits to 26 Digital Schools in 7 counties.” He informed the audience that women’s empowerment “continues to promote economic independence and digital confidence through our initiatives.”
He claims that as of right now, more than 400 women have benefited from structured training in digital skills, literacy, and numeracy as well as social stability through their integration into Community Peace Huts, where they have conducted workshops on sexual and gender-based violence awareness and peacebuilding.
