Highlights of the EFJD Memorandum of Understanding

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that gave life to Eritreans for Justice & Democracy (EFJD) is more than an agreement — it is a pledge. It sets out the shared vision, principles, and commitments that guide our collective work.

Our Shared Vision

• Justice and Democracy for Eritrea: A future where all Eritreans live under the rule of law, with equal rights and responsibilities.
• Civic Nationhood: Eritrea belongs to all its citizens — no community is above another.
• Unity in Diversity: Our strength comes from respecting Eritrea’s languages, cultures, and faiths.

Our Commitments

• Accountability: To speak truth to power and challenge injustice, no matter where it comes from.
• Solidarity: To stand with all Eritreans harmed by repression, displacement, or exclusion.
• Non-sectarianism: To reject ethnic, religious, or regional favoritism in all forms.
• Inclusiveness: To build a platform open to every Eritrean who shares our values.

Our Approach

• Dialogue, not Domination: Creating space for free debate and civic engagement.
• Collaboration, not Competition: Working with like-minded initiatives to strengthen the justice movement.
• Transparency, not Secrecy: Making decisions in the open and remaining accountable to the people we serve.

Why It Matters

This MoU is the backbone of EFJD’s mission. It tells Eritreans at home and abroad that there is a movement anchored in principle, not personality; in collective leadership, not domination. It is an invitation to all who believe Eritrea deserves better to join hands in shaping a just and democratic future.
