— AREAS OF IMPACT

Four Places Where the Work Compounds

Building the Human Foundation First

From St. Paul’s Hospital to Ethio Turkish Hospital to a growing network of 15 hospitals, CALS has helped build the human foundation of Ethiopian healthcare institutions — not as an add-on, but as a prerequisite for excellence.

Healthcare Leadership

Reform That Reaches the Ministerial Level

CALS has supported institutional reform inside five Ethiopian government ministries, helping leaders navigate complexity, build accountability, and serve the public more effectively.

Government & Public Sector

Credibility That Spans Local and Global

Trusted by the United Nations, the African Union, and global brands operating in Ethiopia, CALS has built a reputation that spans local context and global credibility.

International Standing

Investing Before the World Is Watching

Through the African Union’s youth program and partnerships like Qesbeqes with GIZ, CALS invests directly in the leaders Africa has not yet met — 2,000+ and counting.
