About Us

A Century of Community Development.

Realizing the great potentialities of co-operative community action in national progress and development, We established the Ministry of National Community Development as early as 1957. Our chief concern has been to improve life and living conditions of Our people, especially the weaker section of Our society like nomads, who live in under-developed regions of Our Empire.

In the world of today, community development is universally recognized as “A process designed to create conditions of economic and social progress for the whole community with active participation and largely dependent upon the initiative of the community.”

 

Accordingly when people have the ability and means, their partnership with the Government in development plans strengthens both the people and the Government. It is therefore with this belief that We have undertaken extensive educational plans throughout the nation.

"Ethiopia stretches forth her hands unto God."

Constitution & Bylaws

The Foundational Charter.

Ratified upon incorporation in August 1937 by Dr. Malaku E. Bayen, the E.W.F. Constitution and By-Laws remain the guiding document of our organization — a living charter that governs the conduct, authority, and purpose of every Local Unit worldwide.

This is an example page. It’s different from a blog post because it will stay in one place and will show up in your site navigation (in most themes). Most people start with an About page that introduces them to potential site visitors. It might say something like this:

Hi there! I’m a bike messenger by day, aspiring actor by night, and this is my website. I live in Los Angeles, have a great dog named Jack, and I like piña coladas. (And gettin’ caught in the rain.)

…or something like this:

The XYZ Doohickey Company was founded in 1971, and has been providing quality doohickeys to the public ever since. Located in Gotham City, XYZ employs over 2,000 people and does all kinds of awesome things for the Gotham community.
