The founder of the Oromia Media Network, Jawar was a leading organizer of the 2016 Ethiopian protests[1] and the key intellectual inspiration for the National Youth Movement for Freedom and Democracy, popularly known as The Youth or Qeerroo (in Afaan Oromo) Early life and educationJawar Mohammed an Oromo was born on 12 May 1986[2] in the small town of Dumuga ({{lang-om|Dhummugaa}}) on the border of the former Arsi and Hararghe provinces.[3] His father was Muslim while his mother was an Orthodox Christian; their inter-religious union was considered novel but was ultimately accepted by the community.[3] Jawar began his formal education at a Catholic school in Asella. He then attended secondary school in Adama until 2003, when he was awarded a scholarship to study at the United World College of South East Asia in Singapore, from which he graduated in 2005. He described his experience at the UWC as awakening his consciousness to his own Oromo identity.[3] He then studied at Stanford University, graduating in 2009 with a degree in political science. He went on to pursue graduate studies in human rights at Columbia University, receiving a master's degree in 2013.[3][4] ActivismIn 2006, while a student at Stanford, Jawar founded the International Oromo Youth Association (IOYA), intended to serve as an umbrella organization for Oromo youth groups around the world, which has engaged in advocacy in front of United Nations bodies in Geneva and held demonstrations to protest Ethiopian government policy.[5][6] Jawar first gained prominence as a writer and speaker on Oromo and Ethiopian politics, chiefly amongst the US-based diaspora.[7] He was a notable critic of the Oromo Liberation Front and their perceived failure to effect meaningful political change in Ethiopia and advance Oromo interests.[3] Jawar has been an important political coordinator for the Qeerroo youth movement, even in exile.[8] However, he has been controversial[9][10] References1. ^{{cite news |last1=Gardiner |first1=Tom |title=Jawar Mohammed's red-carpet return signals Ethiopia's political sea change |url=https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2018/aug/20/jawar-mohammed-return-ethiopia-political-change-oromo |accessdate=25 September 2018 |work=The Guardian |date=20 August 2018 |quote=Few doubt the importance of Jawar in recent Ethiopian history.
