Moscow: AfricUpdate – News Desk
Ethiopia’s Ministry of Tourism has announced the launch of the “Journey to the Homeland” programme, designed to strengthen ties with ethnic Ethiopians living abroad, reports Fana Media Corporation (FMC), a partner of TV BRICS. According to the State Minister of Tourism, Endegena Abebe, the programme will offer participants the opportunity to visit Ethiopia, explore its history and traditions, and reconnect with relatives and local communities.
He noted that many Ethiopians raised overseas lack a deep understanding of their roots, and this initiative will help bridge that gap. The programme is being implemented in collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism, the Diaspora Affairs Directorate, and private partners. As Abebe emphasised, the project represents a significant step towards strengthening the bond between Ethiopia and its citizens living abroad.
