About the Country

Ethiopia is one of the oldest independent countries in the world, and the oldest in Africa. Uniquely, Ethiopia was never colonized, other than being briefly occupied by Italy during World War II. Located in East Africa, this landlocked nation is popular for their coffee industry.

Even though widely regarded as one of the most stable democratic countries in Africa, Ethiopia had years of unrest from 1974 to 1991 and is currently experiencing large-scale conflict in the Tigray region of the country. As a result of these times of unrest, it is one of the poorest nations in Africa, with more than half of the population being illiterate. 

Prayer Needs

Current fighting in Tigray region is causing hardship for many people. Several Hope Walks partner clinics in the area are not able to fully function as a result. Please keep this concern in your prayers. We ask for prayers that families would continue to seek treatment for their children with clubfoot. Pray for the continued strengthening of believers in Ethiopia.
