Awate.com

Bio

The purpose of Awate.com is to serve as an anti-dote to the stifling propaganda of the Eritrean State media and its tentacles in Europe and North America. The purpose of the State media and its tentacles is to promote the sole ruling party in Eritrea, the People’s Front for Democracy & Justice (PFDJ) by exaggerating its meager “accomplishments” and by hiding its catastrophic mistakes and crimes against the people of Eritrea.

In contrast, the mission of Awate.com is to provide Eritreans and friends of Eritrea with information that is hidden by the Eritrean regime and its surrogates; to provide a platform for information dissemination and opinion sharing; to discuss issues truthfully no matter whose ox is being gored; to inspire Eritreans, to embolden them into taking action, and finally, to lay the groundwork for reconciliation whose pillars are the truth.

Awate.com was founded by Saleh “Gadi” Johar and is administered by the Awate Team, which includes Saleh Johar, Saleh Younis, and a group of volunteers who serve as the website’s advisory committee. Over the years, the website has benefited greatly from volunteer IT professionals, writers and reporters whose sole compensation is the knowledge that they are providing the Eritrean people information that they have a right to know.
