This site was launched in November 2005 by concerned Ethiopians residing in London who are deeply angered by the senseless violence which is being inflicted on innocent civilians, opposition leaders, human rights and civic organisations leaders by the brutal and ruthless regime in Addis Ababa.

Our aims are:

  • to be the source of up-to-date information about the current situation in Ethiopia
  • to expose the government misdeeds to the international community
  • to serve as informaton exchange point particularly for the Ethiopian community in the United Kingdom (including announcment of rallies, meetings, etc.)
  • to lobby for the creation of a genuine democratic political system in Ethiopia

We are campaigning for:

  • immediate end to the use of lethal force, random searches, indiscriminate beatings and mass arrest
  • the release of all political prisoners
  • independent judiciary system
  • free and indpendent media
  • neutral electoral system capable of carrying out free and fair election
  • a change in the current parliamentary rules and practices to ensure that all parties represented in parliament can participate on a fair and representative basis
  • the Ethiopian police and armed forces to play a neutral rule
  • genuine demcoracy, accountablity, transparency and good governance in Ethiopia

God Bless Ethiopia.

Who is Debteraw?

This site is dedicated to Poet Tsegaye Gebremedhin Luccha (also known as Debteraw) & other writers who are the true sons and daughters of Ethiopia and whose engaging works have led them to detention, harassment, torture, exile and even murder by the represive & brutal regime in Addis.

Tsegaye's whereabouts is still not known but feared executed by TPLF.
