On the 30th of last month, a delegation from the International Women’s Peace Group Global Region 2 (IWPG, Global 2 Regional Director Seo-yeon Lee) met at the EBC broadcasting station with EBC Representative Genet Tadesse of Ethiopia, Office Director Molalin, and Reporter Yegawehu.
EBC (Ethiopian Broadcasting Corporation) is a public broadcaster that produces and broadcasts a variety of programs to promote Ethiopia’s national development and culture, including domestic and international news, sports and entertainment. It covers cultural events, educational programs, art, history, and cultural heritage, and is one of Ethiopia’s major media organizations that reflects the country’s values and goals.
At the meeting, we had time to introduce IWPG by sharing IWPG videos, our activities at UN CSW, and our visit to the Ethiopian Embassy in the UN. He also spoke about the importance of the media in peace activities and promised to sign a business agreement with a broadcasting company.
Representative Genet Tadesse said, “Peace is the most important. “EBC Broadcasting is also working with peace as a priority,” he said, adding, “I will support IWPG’s peace activities.”
IWPG Global Region 2 predicts that continued meetings will take place between EBC Broadcasting and Ethiopia for peace.
