We find ourselves in a time when sanitation and hygiene are more important than ever before. WEEMA is proud to have been an advocate of community-based hygiene and sanitation solutions dating back to our first Mudula water project to ensure much-needed water access for both drinking and sanitation. Today, as we get ready to launch our new website, we wanted to share this heartwarming video highlighting our work in sanitation and hygiene. 

Enjoy and stay tuned for our website launch this coming week!

Thrilled to be launching our new website very soon!

We’ve been hard at work on a new website for WEEMA. It will include brand new footage of our work in Southwest Ethiopia, interactive maps showing you which communities we work with and many other cool features to celebrate the collective impact we are making with community-led development in Ethiopia. We can’t wait to share it with you all and hear your thoughts. In the meantime, here is a sneak peak of our introduction video. Stay Tuned! :)

Enough is Enough

WEEMA Wednesday is generally a platform to share the work that our team is doing in Ethiopia, thanks to your support.  However, we cannot ignore the current events and the incredible pain caused by the tremendous injustices in today’s America.  WEEMA as an organization stands in complete solidarity with our Black brothers and sisters. We are heartbroken, devastated and angry to see the continuing unjust treatment of Black people in this country. 

The United States is in crisis.  Black people have been fighting for justice and equality for generations and they are so, so tired.  The violence, the trauma, the pain is more than our black brothers and sisters can bear alone. It is long overdue, but if we want real change, we must demand it.  It is time for white people to take meaningful action. 

This is the way forward.  The more we all stand together, the more quickly we can make a “new normal” that is not just about dealing with a viral pandemic, but also deals with the pandemic of racial injustice. 

Today, once again, we are asking for your support - your support against this crisis of racial injustice.  

Listen. Learn. Research. Vote. Act.
