"Over 40 years, ORDA Ethiopia has grown from an emergency relief organisation into a comprehensive development partner — and our commitment to the communities we serve has never wavered."
On behalf of the Board of Directors, Senior Management Team and the entire ORDA Ethiopia family, I am pleased to welcome you to our website. For over four decades, ORDA Ethiopia has been on the front lines of sustainable development, working alongside the most vulnerable communities in Ethiopia to build resilient livelihoods, protect the environment and uphold human dignity.
Our work is grounded in the belief that communities, when empowered with the right tools, knowledge and partnerships, can overcome even the most formidable challenges. From reforesting degraded highlands to bringing clean water to remote villages, from empowering women entrepreneurs to preparing communities for climate shocks — ORDA Ethiopia's programmes touch every dimension of human wellbeing.
Thank you for your continued confidence in ORDA Ethiopia. Together, we are transforming lives.
— Dr. Alemayehu Wassie Eshete
Executive Director, ORDA Ethiopia
