Ethiopia has one of the richest histories of any country or culture on earth. Its archaeological remains show a continuous record of complex settlements for nearly 3,000 years. It also has the second largest population in Africa, of approximately 126.5 million people.
Much of the population currently face serious challenges, like persistent droughts, floods and locust infestations.
These crises have set back several decades of strong development progress as Ethiopians have sought to establish a stable political system and thriving economy after years of civil war.
A better world needs all of us. That’s why CAFOD has been working in Ethiopia for nearly 40 years. We’ve been providing both long-term support to farming families as well as emergency assistance when needed.
