From page 76...
... The Ethiopian Academy of Sciences requested of the Ethiopian government that it create an Act of Parliament to recognize the entity as an Academy and grant a submission to give the Ethiopian Academy of Sciences standing. Credibility was earned because the Royal Society and the African Science Academy Development Initiative support allowed the Ethiopian Academy of Sciences to undertake important studies that created legitimacy in the eyes of the Ethiopian government officials.
From page 77...
... The green represents sustainability, and that the Ethiopian Academy of Sciences stands for sustainable development and environmental sustainability.
