Sister Medhin Tesfay from Ethiopia, pictured with Trócaire CEO Caoimhe de Barra, has been presented with the Trócaire ‘Romero International Award’ in recognition of her extraordinary courage and commitment to the transformative and life-saving work of the Daughters of Charity in Ethiopia for nearly three decades. Sister Medhin Tesfay was presented with the Trócaire 'Romero International Award' by Archbishop of Armagh Eamon Martin at an event in Belfast last week to mark the charity's 50th anniversary. She thanked the people of Northern Ireland for their support of not just the Daughters of Charity but many other partner organisations since Trócaire was founded fifty years ago. Trócaire has worked with the Daughters of Charity since 1990. The work undertaken by the Sisters includes supporting education, health, emergency response, and economic and livelihoods supports particularly to women.
