Africa-Press – Ethiopia. The Ethiopian Diaspora Service (EDS) has reaffirmed its commitment to support Ethiopian National Dialogue Commission in gathering agenda items from Ethiopians and Ethiopian origins residing across the globe.
The Commission has already begun consultations with the diaspora communities to collect agenda items, engaging with Ethiopian communities in various countries.
Recently, agenda items were collected from diaspora members in South Africa, and delegations have been dispatched to the United States and Canada to conduct similar consultations.
Fitsum Arega, Director-General of EDS, told ENA that the national dialogue provides a conducive platform for fostering mutual understanding and unity through discussion, thereby enabling citizens to build the nation together.
He emphasized that the dialogue creates opportunities to resolve issues constructively through dialogue rather than confrontation on social media.
Noting that the Commission has already collected agenda items from different institutions and regions within Ethiopia, Fitsum noted that the current phase focuses on engaging Ethiopians abroad.
Prior to formal collaboration with the Commission, the Diaspora Service had also held online discussions with diaspora members, mission leaders, and diplomats to identify effective methods of cooperation, he added.
Fitsum further elaborated that the Diaspora Service stands ready to provide full support to the Commission, including facilitating connections with Ethiopian embassies in host countries, to ensure the active participation of diaspora communities in the national dialogue process.
