- AEPAC Mission

Strategic Relationship

AEPAC fosters dialogue between the U.S. administration, legislators, and civil society to emphasize Ethiopia’s strategic role as a reliable U.S. ally. Committed to the rule of law and human rights, AEPAC promotes entrepreneurship, a free market economy, U.S. security and business interests in Africa, and supports Ethiopia’s role in regional stability and multiparty democracy.

Bipartisan Support

AEPAC aims to work with Democrats and Republicans across the United States as well as other elected officials in the spirit of bipartisanship to foster U.S.-Ethiopia mutually beneficial relationship, regional development and overall African security. AEPAC members participate in political discourse and community activities aimed at strengthening ties between the two nations and peoples.

Mutual Security

U.S.-Ethiopia partnership plays a vital role in the success of U.S. initiatives in the African region, particularly in the Horn of Africa. It is AEPAC’s mission to keep Ethiopia as one of the most crucial partners of the United States on the African continent by promoting closer strategic ties between the two countries.

Voter Registration and Mobilization

Voting is the bed rock of democracy, and one of AEPAC’s civic responsibilities. We organize and mobilize American Ethiopians and like-minded voters of all race and creed across the United States to lobby Republicans, Democrats and Independents to pursue a shared mission of strengthening and expanding the U.S.-Ethiopia relationship.
