I am from Ethiopia. Currently I’m writting my masters thesis in masters of public administration at Addis Ababa university. I am lecturer at wolaita sodo university. As of public administration student, Public policy is one of my study area. Because of this I am glad to participate on this event and get value for my country. I expect your positive response.
Regards!
