Enabling Emerging Political Leaders

The Ethiopian Democracy Academy (EDAC) aims to contribute towards the democratization process of the country by training emerging / future generations
of Ethiopian politicians on democratic ideas, values and practices that help foster multiparty democracy in the country. By building the capacity of individual leaders and thereby the political parties, EDAC strives to impact the democratic culture and to strengthen the practice of multiparty dialogue among political parties and help them work together. Given the political polarization in Ethiopia, EDAC hopes to become the platform for peaceful resolution of disputes and address misunderstandings among political parties.
