Medrek

Medrek (officially the "Forum for Democratic Dialogue in Ethiopia") is an Ethiopian opposition political coalition founded in 2008 which contested the Ethiopian general election, 2010.

For the 2010 elections, they listed eight constituent parties, including three parties that had been part of the UEDF:
