The Ethiopian Human Rights Council or EHRCO is an Ethiopian human rights non-governmental organisation created in 1991 by Mesfin Woldemariam and 31 colleagues shortly after the dictator Mengistu Haile Mariam was overthrown.[1][2][3] EHRCO's funds and staff were greatly reduced in 2009 as a result of a law limiting the role of foreign funds in citizens' associations,[2] and restored by 2020, after Abiy Ahmed became the new prime minister, allowing EHRCO to expand its operations.[4] EHRCO published its preliminary report on the Mai Kadra massacre of the Tigray War on 25 December 2020.[5]
