TIIMRAN is an indigenous not-for-profit organization registered by the Agency for Civil Societies Organizations in March 2020. TIMRAN emerged as a local nonpartisan civil society organization dedicated to advance women’s participation in politics and public decision making in Ethiopia regardless of their political opinion or party affiliation. It is founded by nine Ethiopian citizens who steadfastly united to narrow the gender parity in the country’s politics. TIMRAN is dedicated to carry its share in the nation’s efforts to end the current political environment that is characterized by political gridlock, marginalization, injustice, violence, and rapidly growing ethnic conflict.
Our vision is to see Ethiopia in which women take their legitimate space in public decision-making and the nation’s political affairs.
Our mission is to work towards the enhancement of Ethiopian women’s active engagement in political and public leadership to ensure their constitutional right to equal participation in the nation’s political, social and economic undertakings. And this, we believe, will contribute to building a just society based on gender equality and maintain peace and security of the nation.
