Ethiopiaid Australia Supporting local, grassroots community development and health organisations in Ethiopia We believe that truly sustainable change should be local, not imported.

Founded in 1989, we have over 30 years' fundraising experience and a vibrant history of progress across key areas of development in Ethiopia. That’s why our approach is different - we form partnerships with organisations which are on-the-ground in Ethiopia and which are known for their local knowledge and first-hand experience. Together with these on-the-ground partners and wonderful supporters just like you, we are creating lasting and positive change for the lives of many in Ethiopia.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for your considerable support throughout this campaign. The fight against fistula is a tough one, but thanks to your generosity, we can continue to support, educate and assist so many women across Ethiopia.

This is an ongoing battle, and we greatly appreciate any further support.

Muna lived with fistula for four years, and from all the treatment that she received, she says that the training on anxiety and psychosocial support was what stuck with her forever.

"During the training, we learned how to manage the emotional impact of living with fistula. We were taught that the people who rejected us simply didn't understand, and that we should forgive them so we could move forward."

Muna now carries this into her work as a Safe Motherhood Ambassador, helping survivors understand that fistula is not a punishment for doing something wrong, and that those who judge are the ones who need education.

While fistula has been effectively eliminated across the ‘global north’, it is still the reality for many women across Ethiopia. Through a combination of malnutrition, young motherhood and a lack of access to proper healthcare, thousands of women in Ethiopia still develop fistula every year.

That’s where Safe Motherhood Ambassadors come in. They identify, treat and provide aid to those that are in need, preventing fistula before it happens, or assisting those who have already developed it.

At Ethiopiaid, we’re committed to sustainable projects that create lasting change in the areas that we work.

The Safe Motherhood Ambassadors program achieves this and then some, with survivors of obstetric fistula becoming educators, mentors and supporters to their whole community.
