Can you believe in the fact that organisations could make a difference? Is it possible that the physical, spiritual, social and economic well-being of communities can be greatly influenced to the good by effectively mobilizing religious societies to collaborate for change?
The Interfaith Consortium in partnership with United for Life Ethiopia, the local Pro-life, western Conservative Evangelicals ally organized two national anti-homosexuality conferences and pass a joint statement to plea the government to further restrict the practice of homosexuality in December, 2008 at UN Convention Center and June, 2012 at the newly built African Union headquarter in Addis Ababa.
