Ethiopia

Unique among African countries, the ancient Ethiopian monarchy maintained its freedom from colonial rule with the exception of a short-lived Italian occupation (1936-1941). The country is now home to around 120 million people and over 80 different ethnic groups. Ethiopia is one of the least developed countries but is sometimes considered an emerging power, having the fastest economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa.

LIA-Ethiopia was the first country office in LIA’s history, officially registered as a development organization in June 2000.
