  • Building Smart Eco-Products
    PROGRAM & PROFILE BUILDING SMART ECo-PrODUCTS What does going green mean? Basically, going green is about maintaining the natural ecological balance in the environment, and preserving the planet and its natural systems and resources. It also means taking steps, whether big or small, to minimize the harm you do to the environment (including the carbon footprints you leave behind), as a result of inhabiting this planet. Going Green is a trend with a variety of benefits for business owners. Applying green processes to the workplace creates a healthy environment for employees, reduces unnecessary waste and recognizes the role that businesses play in leading the way for social change. For the business that is thinking about going green, a variety of reasons exist to take the plunge. Going Green in Africa There is growing urgency in the need for Africa to speed up the adoption of resource efficient production practices and progressively restructure away from energy intensive industries towards new green industries, which are financially viable and internationally competitive in the long run Going Green is about seizing the opportunity - to build international competitiveness, new economic infrastructure, sectors and activity; create prosperity and jobs; transform our economy and society; reduce poverty; improve health and quality of life for all. That’s what the Think and Go Green Conference and Expo is all about. The Event The event consists of two parts: a two-day conference, taking place from December 11th to 12th, 2014, and a three- day expo of green products and services from the 12th to the 14th of December 2014.

  • Guide to Accessible Addis Ababa
    GUIDE TO ACCESSIBLE ADDIS ABABA Ethiopian Center for Disability and Development Second Edition 2014 GUIDE TO ACCESSIBLE ADDIS ABABA Prepared by: Ethiopian Center for Disability and Development (ECDD) with the Support of Light for the World Austria Second Edition 2014 Introduction The preparation of a “Guide to Accessible Ethiopia” is one of the major components of the ECDD “Promoting Accessibility in Ethiopia” project, which is a continuation of a previous project which ECDD undertook in 2008 with the support of LIGHT FOR THE WORLD Austria. The purpose of the project is to assess the accessibility of selected public buildings and services in Ethiopia for persons with disabilities, including hotels, guest houses, restaurants, shopping places, medical services, tour and travel services, museums, and recreational centers among other establishments. During this project, ECDD also organized a series of “Accessibility Information Seminars” in 12 towns in Ethiopia to inform business and building owners, architects and urban planners about accessibility standards to encourage greater attention to making accessible facilities all. In addition, ECDD undertook the modification of existing schools in selected towns to demonstrate what accessible design looks like. ECDD collected information on the accessibility of facilities and services for persons with disabilities living in Addis Ababa and in 12 secondary towns of the country, including: Adama, Debre Zeit and Jimma in Oromia Regional State, Hawassa and Arba Minch in Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples’ Regional State, Axum and Mekele in Tigray Regional State, Bahir Dar, Gondar, and Lalibela in Amhara Regional State, and the municipalities of Dire Dawa and Harar in eastern Ethiopia.
