The Pact of the Future calls for participation of women in all levels of decision making. The Plan International Ethiopia #GirlsTakeover initiative is a great opportunity to enable young women to raise their voices to address gender inequality #WIDEN.

Just explored the breathtaking Bale Mountains National Park. From lush greenery and hidden waterfalls to the windswept Sanetti Plateau, this place is pure magic. Spotted the rare Ethiopian wolves and majestic nyalas in their natural habitat! Ethiopia, you're a wonder.
