What are you smoking? No, the event is not a religious pow wow. Rather it is an educational discussion by learned men. Here are the speakers the story listed…I guess you just missed that part:

Dr. Ephraim Isaac, Director of the Institute of Semitic Studies at Princeton University; Dr. Ayele Bekerie, Professor of Africana Studies at Cornell University, Dr. Said Samatar, Professor of African History at Rutgers University; and Dr. Yohannes Zeleke, an archaeologist, anthropologist, and historian as well as the former curator of the National Museum of Ethiopia.

(atleast according to this report) what kind of discussion will that be. Its disappointing, atleast from my view, that a priestly class of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church will not be present, since they are inheritors of both Judiasm and Christiany in Ethiopia. The news brief was good, except, Ethiopia is not Eastern Orthodox, but Oriental Orthodox; Easter Orthodoxy includeds churches that are not in full communion with the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, such as the Russian and Greek church.

Thanks.
