MEDICAL EDUCATION, SANITATION AND HEALTH IN ETHIOPIA

For 9 years, we have been visiting Wellega University, Nekemte and Lalibela in Ethiopia with groups that include doctors, healthcare staff and medical students, initially to help with teaching at the new medical school. We also visit local schools; the pandemic and current violence have stopped us visiting but we have continued a programme to dig wells and build segregated lavatories for them.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
