Ethiopian Citizens for Social Justice (Template:Lang-am; abbreviated Template:Lang-am) is a liberal political party in Ethiopia. It was formed in May 2019 from the merger of the Patriotic Ginbot 7, Ethiopian Democratic Party (EDP), All-Ethiopian Democratic Party (AEDP), Semayawi Party, New Generation Party (NGP), Gambella Regional Movement (GRM), and Unity for Democracy and Justice (UDJ) party. In July 2019, ye-Ethiopia Ra'iy Party (ERaPa) also merged into EZeMa.[1] The party's logo consists of scales of justice with a large pencil acting as a pole connecting the scales.

Its leader is Berhanu Nega, and its deputy leader is Andualem Aragie. Yeshiwas Assefa and Chane Kebede are chairperson and deputy chairperson, respectively.[2][needs update]

On 25 May 2023, several founders of the party resigned from membership, citing irreconcilable differences and the party's increasingly close connection with the ruling Prosperity Party.[3]
