I am also affiliated with the Centre for International Policy Studies (CIPS) as a Research Associate at the University of Ottawa. Prior to my current roles, I served as an Assistant Professor and PhD Program Coordinator in the Department of Political Science and International Studies at Bahir Dar University in Ethiopia until July 2023.
