Funding Sources

The collaborative training and original survey research conducted by Brown University and Jimma University would not have been possible without the generous support of numerous foundations and government agencies. The Packard Foundation has been a mainstay for our activities during the past eight years; we are privileged to be part of its population program activities in Ethiopia.
