American Spaces in Ethiopia are public spaces that are sponsored by the U.S. Embassy Addis Ababa as platforms for engagement with the Ethiopian people. They provide welcoming environments where visitors can connect, discuss, and learn about the United States and our priorities in Ethiopia through programs and lectures, as well as through books, movies, and magazines. The Spaces are equipped with technologies to enhance dynamic programming including video conferencing, computers, internet access, and cutting edge equipment in our MakerSpaces. We currently operate five American Spaces – one at the U.S. Embassy, and another in downtown Addis Ababa, along with our American Corners in Jimma, Dire Dawa, and Bahir Dar. Contact us at AddisAmericanSpace@state.gov
Please check out each space for more details.
