Menschen für Menschen set up several Integrated Rural Development Projects in nine Ethiopian regions. Menschen für Menschen developed the idea of "integrated rural projects" to initiate lasting and sustainable change. In cooperation with the local population, there is an integrated and interlocked approach to development activities in the various project categories. Additional project activities are implemented in other regions of the country. Our project map shows where the Menschen für Menschen projects are located.
