UNFPA Ethiopia

🤝 In Jijiga with 🇯🇵 H.E SHIBATA Hironori, Japan's Ambassador to #Ethiopia @JapanEthiopia! We met regional leaders, visited Karamara Hospital’s maternity ward, a mobile health clinic supported by @UNFPA & @JapanGov, & a youth center empowering young people. #UNFPAThanksJapan

From maternal health to youth empowerment, @UNVolunteers are making real contributions with @UNFPAEthiopia. @UNFPAEthiopia Ctr'y Rep @KkouameKoffi had an exchange with UNV’s @ndunguciiru on deepening collaboration for rights & well-being of women & young people across Ethiopia.

When girls are empowered, entire communities thrive. In #Ethiopia, girls are raising their voices, staying in school, & choosing their own paths, breaking cycles of poverty & inequality. @UNFPAEthiopia #KOICA #SRHR #GirlEmpowerment 💬What does girls’ empowerment mean to you? ⤵️

🎉 425 guests came together on May 30 to restore hope for fistula survivors in #Ethiopia. Together, we raised $97,762 🥳 supporting 65+ women with surgery & new beginnings✨ The journey to #EndFistula by 2030 continues. 👉unf.pa/3GAcqgz @UNEthiopia @fistulaethiopia

Thank you, Honourable Randeep Sarai, for taking the time to visit one of UNFPA’s flagship programmes. Your presence is a powerful gesture of solidarity. We are deeply grateful for Canada’s unwavering support in restoring hope, dignity, and a future to survivors of GBV.

Today in Hawassa, Secretary of State Sarai visited a safe house supported by 🇨🇦 through @UNFPA, offering shelter, care, and hope to survivors of gender-based violence. #EndGBV #SRHR #WomenEmpowerment @CanadaDev

Today, Hon. Randeep Sarai, 🇨🇦's Secretary of State, visited the Hawassa Safe House run by AWSAD. With Canada's support through @UNFPAEthiopia, survivors of Gender-Based Violence (#GBV) received care, protection, and a second chance to rebuild their lives. #SafeSpaces #EndGBV🧡

This #MandelaDay, the message is clear: “It's still in our hands to combat poverty & inequity.” Obstetric fistula is gone in Canada—but in Ethiopia, thousands still suffer. Canada partners with @UNFPA & Hamlin Fistula Hospital to protect the dignity and rights of women and girls.

All women suffering from fistula deserve treatment & care. At Hamlin Fistula Hospital, Secretary of State Sarai with @MekdesDaba saw the life-changing impact of 🇨🇦’s support to @UNFPA for #SRHR treatment and restoring dignity. Saving lives. #WomensHealth #EndFistula @CanadaDev

Today, 🇨🇦’s Sec. of State, Hon. Randeep Sarai & Dr. @MekdesDaba, Minister of Health, visited @HamlinFistula with @UNFPAEthiopia Rep., @KkouameKoffi. Together, they reaffirmed their commitment to end obstetric fistula and restore dignity for every woman in 🇪🇹. #EndFistula #SRHR

What a journey! After 8.5 years, today I bid farewell to @UNFPA and the @UN family. I leave with confidence that a brighter future for women and girls is within reach. I'll be rooting from the sidelines as my amazing colleagues carry our march of progress forward. ¡Adelante!

''This year’s theme 'the real fertility crisis: the pursuit of reproductive agency in a changing world' is a global call to action. It invites all stakeholders to uphold the rights & choices of individuals.'' @EpieSaturnin Chief, @UNFPA_AARO #WorldPopulationDay #SWP2025

“At the core of our work is a simple belief: No one should be pressured to have more children, or prevented from having the children they desire. We must listen to young people & create the conditions for a hopeful future.” @KkouameKoffi, UNFPA Ethiopia Rep. #SWP2025 #WPD

Happening Now! Launch of #SWP2025 & #WPD2025 celebrations. H.E. @dereje_dugumaMD, State Minister @FMoHealth & H.E. Huria Ali Mahdi, State Minister @Mowsaofficia emphasized on improving access to reproductive health services & information to support informed choices.

#HappeningNow Launch of the #StateOfWorldPopulation report & celebration of #worldpopulationday2025. Today’s message is clear: the real crisis is not numbers, it’s the lack of reproductive agency. We must ensure everyone can decide freely about their body & future. #WPD2025

📢 #HappeningNow! We’re launching the #StateOfWorldPopulation report & commemorating #WorldPopulationDay. A moment to reflect, reimagine, & renew our commitment to rights, choices, & equality. @UNEthiopia @UNFPA_ESARO @UNFPA @KkouameKoffi

Across East & Southern #Africa, young people are speaking up for safety, healthcare, jobs, & a seat at the table. Too often, they’re unheard. 🗣️ It’s time to listen, include, and invest. Youth aren't just the future. They are the present. #YouthVoices #WorldPopulationDay
