Ato Tewodrose Desta (Founder and Board Chairman)

At Tana Haik College, we are deeply committed to “social responsibility” as a core value, striving to make a meaningful impact in our local community. Concurrently, we are dedicated to elevating our institution to new heights. Our ambitious vision is to position Tana Haik College among the top ten research-intensive colleges in Africa by 2025.

While this goal may seem ambitious, it is well within our reach. Historically, the creation of a research university was thought to require centuries. However, in recent decades, institutions have achieved world-class status in a remarkably short time. We believe that with good governance, strategic leadership, and strong government support, our vision is not only achievable but also a testament to our commitment to excellence.

We are excited about the journey ahead and remain focused on making a significant impact both locally and across Africa.
