WV Ethiopia Director Margaret Schuler handed over the donation to Takele Gebre-Kidan, Office Manager for Construction of 10 Ethiopia's Universities, in a ceremony held on Saturday at the Ethiopian Ministry of Education in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Schuler said World Vision's key strategic direction focuses on education at the elementary, secondary and university levels.
The donation, which came from WV's Australia division, demonstrates "the interest the World Vision has in helping the government of Ethiopia to strengthen the universities and to ensure quality education both the lower levels and also the university levels," she said.
Takele said that the donation from WV Australia is timely as Ethiopia is currently working to improve the quality of education in higher education.
