am a teacher

I am Edmialem Getachew from Addis. I have graduated my BA degree in Educational planning and Management in 2015. Now I am MA holder in Public Management graduated from Ethiopian civil service university. Currently, I am working at the Ministry of Revenues. I am energetic , enthusiastic and motivated individual .

I am public health expert and field epidemiologist with over 13 years of progressive experience in disease surveillance, outbreak response, and health emergency coordination, particularly in cholera preparedness and control. I have led national and regional efforts through Incident Management Systems (IMS) and Public Health Emergency Operations Centers (PHEOC), demonstrating excellence in coordinating multisectoral cholera response, facilitating cross-border collaboration, and guiding the development and implementation of National Cholera Control Plans (NCCPs) in line with GTFCC standards.

I have a proven track record in mobilizing resources, conducting operational research, and building national capacity in cholera surveillance, Oral Cholera Vaccine (OCV) deployment, and WaSH interventions. My leadership has been instrumental in Ethiopia’s integrated outbreak response efforts, and he currently serves as Chairman of the East Africa Cholera Control Task Force, fostering collaboration among neighboring countries for regional cholera elimination.

Committed, flexible, and results-driven, Yeshambel is a trusted technical leader recognized by national institutions, UN agencies, and international health partners. I am deeply passionate about advancing cholera elimination goals in Africa through evidence-based, community-focused, and sustainable public health strategies.

I am proud to be the first graduate of the University of Gondar School of Law, a place that opened the doors to both my academic and professional journey. Over the past 16 years, I have been privileged to serve in various government roles, including as a prosecutor and legal expert, contributing to public legal service and justice.

Currently, I practice law as a licensed private attorney, with a special focus on business, tax, and customs law. I hold an LL.M. in Business Law from AAU, and continue to serve clients with a deep commitment to legal integrity and professionalism.

The University of Gondar has been more than just an academic institution for me — it has been the foundation of my legal career, shaping both my principles and my purpose as a legal professional.
