Get to know us
SENEthiopia was registered and accorded legal personality with its registry no. 3130 by the F.D.R.E. Authority of Civil Society Organizations (ACSO) in September 2013.
Since our establishment, we have achieved a lot. In fact, our first engagement was construction of great wall for Mekelle School for the Blind followed by all-inclusive support for the school community where children and young people with disabilities are engaged in. We have implemented ‘Talking Textbooks’ program for visually impaired students and teachers that enabled them to access their school curriculum using audio textbook player. Audio textbook player is a little MP3 player that nestles nicely in your hand. The visually impaired students say:
