To run a successful business Ganta's women knew they needed to read and do basic mathematical calculations.
At Tonglewin village Unesco is paying a teacher to run women's classes twice a week.
After just three months most of the women can now read and speak English.
The classes are held at the village school when they return from the field and the children have finished. Liberia's electricity system was destroyed in the war, and the women work until the sun goes down.
