Directions to the NGO Bazaar
The NGO Bazaar takes place in the Evangelical International College which is in an area called Sar Bet, just down from the African Union as you head towards Adam's Pavillion, the shopping centre. The College is opposite Novis Supermarket and King's Hotel. The Bazaar is a morning Bazaar only so all the stalls close at around midday.

As always all donations of books and jam jars are most welcome. All proceeds from the stall go to support scholarships for Hamar students.

Thanks as always for your great support for the Hamar stall. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to anyone you think would be interested in attending the Bazaar

Prayers and best wishes,

Dear TEA Participant,

we are proud to host this month’s TEA discussion and its 2nd year anniversary, at Itegue Taitu Hotel, including a cake-cutting ceremony!

 
On behalf of TEA Organizing Committee, I would like to say thank you for your active participation and contribution in making TEA the most successful platform.

 
We believe that the TEA platform has created ample opportunities to promote technologies, information exchange and establish network among the energy actors. Certainly, with your remarkable contributions and participations, TEA will be flourishing even more and be an excellent instrument to the development of energy sector in the country.

To expand the network further, we have opened up a facebook group account and post highlights of last month’s discussion. Please get connected and be part of the deliberations; Talk Energy Ahead (TEA) - Ethiopia. 

Talk Energy Ahead (TEA) is a platform for information exchange and networking in the Ethiopian energy sector. It is jointly organized by GIZ Energy Coordination Office (GIZ ECO), Horn of Africa - Regional Environmental Center & Network (HoA-REC/N), Netherlands Development Organization (SNV), and Forum for Environment (FfE).
