    Freedom of Political Association in Ethiopia
    (AAU, 2020-05) Bersabeh Seyoum; Abdi Jibril Ali
    Freedom of association is guaranteed in the FDRE Constitution as well as international human right treaties ratified by Ethiopia. Ethiopia has recently adopted Ethiopian Electoral, Political Parties Registration, and Election's Code of Conduct Proclamation Number 1162/2019 which helps ensure political association. The study is aimed at assessing the Electoral Proclamation in regard to ensuring political association of parties. The analysis revealed that the time set for registration is as per the standard but is not prompt in practice which is against the right to form a political party. The requirement set for minimum member in registration is not extensive considering the population of Ethiopia. For cancelation of political parties there are some reasons that have not been clearly listed which is restrictive as well. But funding is set as per the acceptable standard. Therefore, the conclusion reached is that the Electoral Proclamation has some restrictions on political association.

    The Right to Education of Children with Visual Impairment in Addis Ababa
    (AAU, 2020-02) Husen Nasir; Abdi Jibril Ali
    “Education for all” is a broadly accepted maxim according to which the right to education should be availed to everyone regardless of any discrimination whatsoever. This maxim has got its way to various international human rights instruments UDHR being the pioneer one. All the instruments but the CRPD has contained provisions with regard to the right to education in a broader context making everyone to be the beneficiaries thereof. The latter, however, contextualized the right to persons with disabilities wherein children with visual impairment (CWVI) are categorized. Ethiopia has ratified all these instruments thereby making them integral parts of its law. By doing so, it has committed itself to work towards the realization of the right to education to the CWVI. As a move to that effect, it has formulated various policies and strategies confirming such right to the group on top of which provide the need to deliver special assistance to the group as their need so requires. Despite all this, however, CWVI are not enjoying such right of them in the required level be it in the country in general or in Addis Ababa in particular (which is the focus of this study). This being the case, this study undertakes to examine the hindrances attributed to the low-level access of the right to CWVI as well as reasons that could account for the low quality of education given to the group. After doing so, it attempts to come up with the possible solutions to be put in place to tackle such hindrances. The thesis accordingly found out that the level of access to school of CWVI in Addis Ababa is very low due to lack of awareness, inadequate expert supply and training, low economic status and low level of governments attention towards the realization of the right to education of the said group. Not only that CWVI are not accessing schools in Addis Ababa but those students who are enrolled are not provided with quality education because of shortage of learning materials and stationaries, backward assessment modality and challenges of class lecturing. Thus, the thesis concludes that CWVI in Addis Ababa do not have access to quality education and their right to education is at its very infant stage and far from being realized.
