Relief Society of Tigray
The Relief Society of Tigray (abbreviated REST, and known as ''Maret'' in Tigrinya) is an NGO based in Tigray, northern Ethiopia.REST was founded in 1978 as an organization providing relief efforts to civilians.〔 As of 2008, Teklewoini Assefa served as Executive Director of REST.〔Royal Norwegian Embassy in Addis Ababa. ''(Relief Society of Tigray celebrates 30th Anniversary )''〕 REST emerged as the humanitarian wing of the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) and has remained closely linked to TPLF.〔〔Coote, Mike. ''(Does Our Money Really Help?: Life in Ethiopia )''. Bloomington, Ind: AuthorHouse, 2007. p. 25〕 REST was active throughout the armed conflict of the 1980s, including during the devastating 1984-1985 famine.〔
==Emergence==
During the war, working in the areas under the control of the TPLF, REST operated over 60 schools and 53 clinics. The organization had a literacy programme, which claimed to have educated 405,834 persons in the period of 1981 to 1983. REST also sought to provide clean drinking water in these areas.〔Inquai, Solomon. ''(Tigrai: The Agony and the Ecstasy )''. (): Printed by Berhanena Selam Printing Enterprises, 2007. pp. 76, 83〕 Through TPLF resources from the Tigrayan diaspora in North America and Europe and different NGOs were channeled to Tigray.〔 In 1981 the Emergency Relief Desk was set up in Khartoum, as a consortium of Scandinavian ecumenical NGOs cooperating with REST and the Eritrean Relief Association (the humanitarian wing of the EPLF). The ERD provided food supplies to the Sudanese border, where it was picked up by REST and ERA to be distributed in Tigray and Eritrea.〔Duffield, Mark. ''(Development, Security and Unending War: Governing the World of Peoples )''. Cambridge (): Polity Press, 2008. p. 73〕 In contrast Western governments avoided direct links with REST, continuing to channel aid efforts through the official mechanisms in cooperation with the Addis Ababa government.〔〔
