Addis Ababa, April 27, 2024 (FBC) – President Sahle-Work Zewde calls for the need to encourage women to get their agenda included in the forthcoming National Dialogue.

A national consultative forum aims at strengthening women’s participation in forthcoming national dialogue.

Saying the country has experienced disputes that led to conflicts, the President stressed the role of the national dialogue in addressing these differences and putting Ethiopia in a solid foundation.
