These sentiments were articulated at a conference that examined the critical function of civil society in political governance and the advancement of democracy in Tigray, as reported by Dmtsi Weyane Television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There have been various problems in civil society in Tigray and now if they are to fulfill their high role, the government should trust them, the government should understand that they are helpful to the government, there should be better legal framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Assefa Leake shared insights on the significance of civil society in democracy building. He highlighted the historical impact of civil society in various global events, such as the American Civil Rights Movement, the Industrial Revolution, and the fight against apartheid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Civil society plays a vital role in enhancing citizen participation, promoting transparency and accountability in government affairs, and advocating for policy changes. Dr. Assefa emphasized the importance of impartial media, technological advancements, and a non-interference approach by the military in political affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the context of Tigray, post-war society, governance improvement, impartial media, electoral board reform, and civil society’s role in democratization are essential. Solomon Haile discussed how civil society remains independent of politics and focuses on addressing societal issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While civil society in Tigray had a strong start during the EPRDF era, challenges arose post-1997 elections. Although the legal framework is adequate, practical implementation concerns persist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Civil societies can provide support to the government through constructive protests aimed at fostering democratic governance. To address existing challenges, the government must trust civil society organizations and recognize their beneficial role. Enhancing the legal framework will further empower civil societies to fulfill their duties effectively.<\/p>\n\n
