An appeal to the Ethiopian government and the world community about a rural community in the Hadiya zone #Ethiopia (7°35'46"N37°47'11"E), impacted by ecological disaster. DM me if you can assist.

I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Lapisso G. Dilebbo, a remarkable historian whose life’s work gave voice to the silenced and resurrected the history of marginalized peoples. Through his tireless scholarship and courage, he challenged distorted narratives and
