Svensk-Etiopiska föreningen är en opolitisk, religiöst obunden vänskapsförening som bildades i Stockholm 1952. De breda och djupa kontakterna mellan Sverige och Etiopien, som grundlades redan på 1950-talet, är basen och den gemensamma bakgrunden för föreningens medlemmar. Även etiopier bosatta i Sverige har tillfört föreningen ökad kunskap och förståelse för Etiopien, dess land och folk.
Förenings årsmöte hölls traditionsenligt på restaurang Ethiostar i Stockholm den 5 maj. Föreningen fick en ny ordförande, PhD Wondimu Biniyam som efterträder Håkan Pohlstrand på posten.
