The Mela Publication

Mela is a publication of the Ethiopian Adbar Women's Alliance. Mela began its publication on September 2000 as the first bilingual quarterly Ethiopian Women's newspaper in the United States. Mela means "solution" in Amharic the Ethiopian national language. It is in our effort to reach out to the Ethiopian community and the general American public at large.

Mela is a modest forum that entertains views, opinions, and questions from the readers in both Amharic and English. We expect from our readers critic, informative ideas and views that improve our newsletter. We also would like to invite every one to join our newsletter team.

Please send your articles to Mela c/o Ethiopian Adbar Women's Alliance PO Box 382302 or email your articles to Adbar@ethiopianwomen.org.
