Our Story

Born from a belief in community-led change

Founded in 2024 in Addis Ababa, Humanity Praxis emerged from a shared belief that sustainable change comes when communities are empowered to lead their own development journeys.

Our Vision

"To enhance Ethiopia's future through multi-faceted approaches: reducing poverty and trauma; alleviating environmental degradation; promoting psychological well-being and socio-economic development; and fostering a harmonious, prosperous, and unified society."

Our Mission

"To contribute significantly to Ethiopian society through collaborative and participatory interventions focusing on social development, environmental restoration, trauma healing, education, and innovative solutions to pressing challenges."

Shared Humanity

We recognize and respect the shared humanity of all persons.

Environmental Care

We work to prevent climate crisis and restore our environment.

Innovation

We pilot new ideas and focus on areas not reached by others.
