The Federal Ministry for Development and Cooperation has been supporting various of our projects in rural Ethiopia since 2016: from mental health care and psychosocial support for war-affected women and girls to improving livelihoods in water catchment areas, integrated management of forest resources and sustainable improvement of the population’s livelihoods to the creation of sustainable economic prospects for young people and small farmers.
