EECMY/LWF - a DanChurchAid partner

08/02/2006: EECMY/LWF (Lutheran World Federation) is an active partner of the DanChurchAid food security programme and has a strong network throughout Ethiopia.

Being one of the oldest international NGOs, EECMY/LWF has been instrumental in past years in mobilizing relief resources to millions of the rural poor in many parts of the country. It serves in Ethiopia in partnership with the Mekane Yesus Church (EECMY).

EECMY/LWF is today committed to community development in different parts of the country, especially through Integrated Community Development Projects (ICDPs).

LWF is also a key player in water development and agricultural rehabilitation in areas that have been devastated by drought and poverty. With the support of DanChurchAid, it has constructed close to 20 small scale irrigation schemes.

LWF implements agricultural development activities with the objective of improving the food security and livelihood status of poor communities living in marginalized areas.
