We work for Yifat Excellence  !!

Yifat Development Association (YDA) has been trying to accelerate development and growth over the past two decades in Ethiopia, Amhara Region, North Shoa Zone established with more than 250 members in Ethiopian. YIFAT Development Association/YDA/ is a local development organization established in accordance with the Civil Society Organizations Proclamation No 1113/2019 with registration number of 5332 on January 11, 2021 with a vision of: Holistically, Comprehensively, Sustainably Developed and Transformed YIFAT!.

YDA as a civic association working in partnership with all stakeholders, it is an association that strives to establish its own set of goals and plans. Coincidentally, as soon as our association was organized, Ataye and its surrounding felt in huge conflict and damage,  YDA decided to stand aside the victim community immediately and supplied immediate humane trial aids; food and cloth items by collecting money from its members and supporters.

The association is working to bring about tangible changes in the future by planning, implementing for paradigm through agricultural and natural resources, education, health, good governance and infrastructure sectors. Based on that, we are working with partners for exemplary development of Yifat.

It is very important to call all YDA members, partners; especially foreign and domestic aid agencies, research institutes, universities and embassies, as well as the public and the government, work together to build and develop Ethiopia as a whole through different local areas development programs. So I call on you to work closely with us.

Together we build Yifat peace and development !
