Background Information

Injibara city is one of the existing and ancient cities under the administration of the Awi ethnic group. It is said that before 1948, it was used as the central city of Metekel, Bahir Dar, Kola Dega Damot and Agew Midir . Realizing that the city of Injbara is in a mountainous area, its chances to expand are limited, and the residents of the city began to settle in the area called Kosobar, so it must have accompanied its residents.

Realizing that the city of Injbara is in a mountainous area, its chances to expand are limited, and the residents of the city began to settle in the area called Kosobar, so it must have accompanied its residents. The center of the district was moved from Injibara to Kosober and when Awi ethnic administration was established in March 1987, the city of Kosober was chosen as the center of the zone, but the name Injibara was replaced by Kosober, and the old name became the name of new institutions. The name of Injbara Teachers Education College is derived from this historical situation.

The issue of resistance of the Awi ethnic group is the promotion and development of the language and culture of the Awi ethnic group. As confirmed by the studies presented at the National Symposium in 1988, the number of speakers of the Awi language was decreasing as the Awi language was absorbed by the local languages. After confirming the right of the members of the ethnic group to use their language and according to the studies presented, the Awigna alphabet was designed and approved and it was decided to be the language of instruction from 1989. Teaching started with 10 untrained teachers, 5 schools and 310 students.

However, realizing the harm caused to the quality of education by having teachers who knew the language but had not received training until 2000E.C, the regional government started a movement to provide appropriate and standardized training to teachers. Thus, considering this problem, the regional education office started the certificate level training in 1999 at the Markos Teacher Training College to teach 40 trainee teachers how to teach Awigna language as a form of education.

In the year 2000E.C, the number of trainees reached 120. Under the coordination of Awigna Unit, trainers were assigned to each subject and started working in 2001.
