Tahsas 19 – Grand Diaspora Welcoming Ceremony and Addis Hall Launch
Wars destroy families and communities, resulting in the mass destruction of cities and disruption of the social and economic fabric of nations. It takes decades to build a community but takes a few hours/days to destroy it. In Ethiopia in the last six months alone, millions have been displaced; thousands of schools, healthcare facilities, and social centers have been destroyed; and the meager infrastructure the country had has been severely affected. The Diaspora from all corners of the world has come forward to mobilize resources to support displaced communities. The Ethiopian government has also asked the Diaspora community to help support displaced people, re-build infrastructure and be the voice for 100+ million Ethiopians on world stages. This call to service is designed to engage diaspora community members traveling to Ethiopia for the upcoming Ethiopian Christmas to reconstruct damaged infrastructure, social facilities, and related activities.
Event Organizers:
Teach and serve for Africa – Ethiopian Diaspora Service Initiative (TASFA-EDSI) and Ethiopian Diaspora Agency.
