The strength of momentum behind democratization in Ethiopia was shown in Addis Ababa this week, as a consortium of parties agreed a 32-point agenda for dialogue on political reforms. The agenda will now be part of the ongoing interparty dialogue process.<\/p>\n

The announcement was made following a two-day meeting under the title of \u201cDialogue and Consultation among Political Parties in Ethiopia\u201d, organized by NIMD in conjunction with the Office of the Federal Attorney General and NEBE. After several weeks of preparation, delegates from across Ethiopia\u2019s political spectrum were able to attend the large-scale summit in the country’s capital. As institutions acclimatize to real interparty competition based on policies and ideologies, meetings such as this will continue to serve an important role in sustaining the respect and cooperation that multiparty democracies rely on.<\/p>\n

The agenda items cover several aspects of Ethiopia\u2019s political settlement, including the electoral system, reforms to NEBE and constitutional and federal arrangements. Abduletif Kedir, Legal and Justice Affairs Advisory Council Secretariat Head, told journalists that he expected the resulting amendments to be for the most part be finalized in time for the 2020 national elections.<\/p>\n

Dutch Senator and former Minister Ben Knapen, in his capacity as Advisor to the NIMD Ethiopia Programme, spoke to attendees as he shared his experience of working in a multiparty setting. His keynote speech urged parties to cooperate and compromise in the name of peaceful democratic rule and in the national interest. He said \u201cyou [political parties] need to debate on these [issues] because without them people will not figure out which one to choose.\u201d<\/p>\n

NIMD will continue to support Ethiopia\u2019s democratic institutions as leaders pursue this reform agenda in 2019.<\/p>\n
