About us

Who are we?

Welcome to our online home, where the Ethiopian LGBTQ+ community comes alive with energy and purpose. This isn't just a website – it's a place where we build each other up, fight for our rights, and spread awareness. Every click you make here matters; it's a step towards empowerment and unity. Join us on this exciting journey as we make our mark online, together, creating a space that's all about strength, support, and standing tall.

What Is Behind The Naming​

directly translates to
“Dignity of
Citizenship”

first half of the very
first intro/ line of the
Ethiopian National
Anthem.

To EMPHASIZE we,
the Ethiopian LGBTI+
community are still citizens
of the nation and claim our
rightful social conscience.

To DECONSTRUCT the
myth that the society
has for being a
member of LGBTI+
is a western influence.

As “Zega” is a code
name for the Ethiopian
LGBTI+ community, it is also
to EMPOWER the community
with dignity by portraying
its positive image.

Our Mission & Vision

Working with the community to craft, deliver and facilitate services, information and data for the long term wellbeing of the Ethiopian LGBTIQ+ community. To see a queer person walk across the rainbow, head high!
