“Women in Ethiopia” at six UNED centers
This activity aims to raise awareness of the water problem in Ethiopia and how it is linked to girls’ education. It is girls who walk several kilometers a day to fetch water for their families, and that is why they stop going to school. Three countries in the world have more than a million girls out of primary school, and Ethiopia is one of them (UNESCO). The “Women in Ethiopia” exhibition is still touring UNED centers across Spain.
Exhibition at the University of Almería
In May 2023 we presented the exhibition “Growing up as a woman in Ethiopia” at the University of Almería’s Gender Equality Unit. It aimed to shed light on the situation of Ethiopian girls and women, who are hit hardest by the lack of water and proper education. This photo exhibition also helps us bring our NGO’s work closer to Spanish society.
Exhibition at the San Juan Bautista Cultural Center
The exhibition “Unknown Ethiopia” presents the country through the eyes of photographer and CSIC researcher Pepo Prieto, who has supported our work for several years. It is a short journey to discover Ethiopia’s richness and diversity, as well as ADS’s work with the most vulnerable communities. It was on view from November 7 to 25 at the San Juan Bautista Cultural Center in Madrid.
