We are drawn to Ethiopia because Rebecca is from there—our history and connections helped us find our way and contributed to our success. We are also compelled by the sheer scope of the opportunity to make a significant difference, notwithstanding the challenges. Ethiopia is Africa’s second-most populous country and home to a rising generation of talented youth - the key to brighter future for the country and entire African continent.
The Challenge
Persistent poverty
Agriculture-driven economy
Regional instability
The Potential
Strong growth
Strategic location
Large young population
Commitment to education
Taken together, Ethiopia’s economic and demographic trends make the country a compelling investment across sectors, particularly education. This is why we are in Ethiopia now—we see limitless opportunity ahead.
