Visit from Ethiopian ambassador

UNU-LRT was honoured to welcome a distinguished guest last week when the ambassador of Ethiopia to the Nordic countries, Ms. Woinshet Tadesse, paid a visit to the programme. The ambassador and Mr Daneal Tenkir Arga, Counsellor II at the Embassy of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia based in Stockholm, were introduced to the activities and facilities of UNU-LRT. Furthermore, a continued fruitful collaboration between UNU-LRT and local Ethiopian institutions, working on land restoration and sustainable land management, was discussed and recommended.
