  • Gadaa (Oromo: Gadaa: spelling: Gadaa; literally: era) is the indigenous democratic system of governance used by the Oromos in Ethiopia and northern Kenya. It is also practiced by the Konso and Gedeo people of southern Ethiopia. The system regulates political, economic, social and religious activities of the community. Under Gadaa, every eight years, the Oromo would choose by consensus nine leaders known as Salgan ya’ii Borana (the nine Borana assemblies). A leader elected by the gadaa system remains in power only for 8 years, with an election taking place at the end of those 8 years. Whenever an Abbaa Gadaa dies while exercising his functions, the bokkuu (the symbol of power) passes to his wife and she keeps the bokkuu and proclaims the laws. The Gada system has been inscribed by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2016. It is the brainchild of Oromo from the Madda Walabu district of Oromia. Oromo people regarded the system as their common heritage and as a major part of their cultural identity. It is the system with which the Oromo people have been governing themselves in a democratic way for centuries. The Oromo governed themselves in accordance with the Gadaa system long before the 16th century, when major three party wars commenced between them and the Ethiopian Empire to their north and Adal Sultanate to their east and south. The result was that Oromo absorbed of the Christian and Islam religions. The Borana and Guji groups near the Ethiopian-Kenyan border were able to practice Gadaa without interruption. In the state of Oromia under the Federal system of Ethiopia, the Gadaa system started a renaissance across Oromia. In 2015, the Gadaa Center at Odaa Bultum was inaugurated and in 2018, the Gadaa Center at Odaa Hullee reinstalled after two centuries of interruption. In 2019, Bule Hora University launched a master's degree program in Gadaa studies. (en)
  • Le système Gada (Gadaa en anglais) est un système de gouvernance politique et social en vigueur chez les Oromos, un groupe ethnique de la corne de l'Afrique qui vit en Éthiopie. Le Gada est inscrit depuis 2016 sur la liste représentative du patrimoine culturel immatériel de l’humanité. (fr)
  • Il gadaa (o gada) è il tradizionale sistema di classi sociali del popolo africano Oromo. Oggi il gadaa è ancora in uso presso alcuni sottogruppi degli Oromo, tra cui i Borana, diffusi presso il confine fra Etiopia e Kenya. Anche laddove il gadaa non è più applicato rigorosamente, spesso alcuni dei suoi elementi convivono con nuove organizzazioni sociali emerse in epoca coloniale e post-coloniale. Il sistema si applica solo ai maschi. Le classi sociali del gadaa sono dette luba, e sono "classi di età". La luba di appartenenza di un uomo dipende da (ma non coincide con) quella del padre. Vi sono undici diversi gradi di luba, a ciascuna delle quali un uomo appartiene per un ciclo di otto anni, al termine del quale si tiene un'assemblea popolare detta Gumi Gayo. Durante il Gumi Gayo venivano stabilite nuove leggi da applicarsi per gli otto anni successivi, veniva eletto un leader, e i membri delle diverse luba avevano occasione di passare alla luba superiore. Il passaggio è segnato da uno specifico rito di iniziazione. Ogni luba è caratterizzata da un insieme di diritti e responsabilità. (it)
