AFET-22 Appeal Target: US$ 27,030,875 Balance Requested from ACT Network: US$ 26,995,619 150 route de Ferney, P.O. Box 2100 1211 Geneva 2, Switzerland Appeal Tel: 41 22 791 6033 Fax: 41 22 791 6506 e-mail: [email protected] Ethiopia Coordinating Office Assistance to Drought Affected - AFET-22 Appeal Target: US$ 27,030,875 Balance Requested from ACT Network: US$ 26,995,619 Geneva, 21 November 2002 Dear Colleagues, According to the report released in September 2002 by the Ethiopia Federal Disaster Preparedness and Prevention Commission (DPPC), over 6.8 million people in Ethiopia are facing severe food shortages during the current period, with the numbers expected to rise to about 10 million people in the early part of 2003. The Ethiopian Prime Minister, Meles Zenawi was quoted earlier this month as saying that the country faces a famine worse than that of 1984 which killed nearly one million people and sparked off huge international relief efforts. He was further quoted “if the 1984 famine was a nightmare, then this will be too ghastly to contemplate”. Whether this statement could be considered accurate or not, the truth of the matter is that Ethiopia is once more faced with a very severe food crisis which calls for the international community to intervene with massive food aid. As a country highly dependent on rain fed agriculture, this years’ partial or total failure of the belg (short rains) in many areas aggravated the problem of food insecurity. The meher rains (longer rains) also came late and were erratic affecting the long cycle crops and the availability of pasture and water supplies in many pastoral areas. Consequently there were pocket areas that were in need of food assistance from January 2002. In addition many pastoral areas have not recovered from the effect of the 1999/2000 drought. JRP/ACT forum partners working in pastoral areas have reported massive loss of livestock. The worst affected areas being Afar and Somali regions and pastoral woredas of East Shewa zone of Oromia region. In Afar it is estimated that almost half of the cattle population have been wiped out. Nutritional surveys by the DPPC indicate an alarming nutritional status among children under five. Nutritional surveys conducted in Afar and Fentale in East Shewa, Oromia region indicate 13.1% and 17.9% respectively which is higher than the acceptable below 10% The ACT/JRP members have submitted the following proposals to respond to food needs and rehabilitation programs in their areas of operation. These members are, Ethiopia Orthodox Church (EOC), Ethiopia Catholic Church (ECC), Ethiopia Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus (EECMY), Lutheran World Federation/World Service (LWF/WS), Norwegian Church Aid (NCA), and Christian Aid (CA). Christian Aid and Norwegian Church Aid would work through local partners described in the appeal. ACT is a worldwide network of churches and related agencies meeting human need through coordinated emergency response. The ACT Coordinating Office is based with the World Council of Churches (WCC) and the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) in Switzerland.

REQUESTING ACT MEMBER INFORMATION Joint Relief Partnership/ Action By Churches Together (JRP/ACT) forum members in Ethiopia The JRP/ACT forum was formed by members of JRP and ACT in Ethiopia. It was instituted in the second half of the year 2000 to better co-ordinate the emergency responses. The JRP/ACT Forum consist of: Ethiopian Orthodox Church (EOC) Ethiopian Catholic Church (ECC) Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus (EECMY) Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Lutheran World Federation / Department for World Service (LWF/DWS), Ethiopia Norwegian Church Aid (NCA), Ethiopia Christian Aid (CA), Ethiopia Canadian Food Grain Bank (CFGB) Dan Church Aid (DCA), Ethiopia and Bread For the World (BFW) This application is being sent to the ACT network, however the JRP/ACT forum members will submit another appeal, which covers some of the food needs in the 20 districts to USAID through CRS. The Ethiopian Catholic Church (ECC) is also working through the Caritas Network and currently preparing its plan for relief and rehabilitation activities to be submitted to the Caritas Internationalis network. Due to the severity of the problem in the country and lack of relief resources the JRP/ACT forum members agreed to submit their application to all traditional donors with the hope that all contributions made will cover the need in areas where the forum members intended to assist. The request in this appeal includes both food and financial support to address current food shortages and for rehabilitation activities. JRP members have long experience of sharing information and resources. The application sent to ACT, USAID and the Caritas Internationalis network will cover the need in the most food insecure areas that are identified by each partner and agreed up on by JRP/ACT forum members. Therefore the ecumenical partnership and sharing of information which make the JRP unique will still continue in 2002 and 2003. II. IMPLEMENTING ACT MEMBER & PARTNER INFORMATION The Joint Relief Partnership (JRP) is an ecumenical consortium of the three local Churches namely, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church (EOC), the Ethiopian Catholic Church (ECC), the Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus (EECMY) and the two church related international organisations, the Catholic Relief Services (CRS) and the Lutheran World Federation (LWF). The JRP was established in November 1984 during the peak of the Ethiopian famine and has since then continued with relief and rehabilitation intervention in different areas of the country whenever needed. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church, the Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus and the Lutheran World Federation are also members of the ACT network. The ACT network members, Norwegian Church AID (NCA), Christian Aid (CA), Canadian Food Grains Bank (CFGB) and Bread For the World, individually have been working with JRP partners, especially with the EOC and EECMY, in relief, rehabilitation and development activities for many years. Since the formation of the JRP/ACT forum members have been engaged in relief and rehabilitation activities in different parts of the country. In order to facilitate effective and smooth co-ordination for implementation of relief and rehabilitation Ethiopia – Assistance to Drought Affected 4 AFET-22 Appeal programmes, JRP/ACT forum member have taken the responsibility of co-ordinating and implementing relief and rehabilitation programmes according to their local presence (ongoing programmes), capacity of each members in the woreda and existing infrastructures. Description of ACT Members' implementing partners The Ethiopian Orthodox Church diocesan in North Gondar, South Wello and South Tigray Zones will be the responsible implementing partners of the programme in their respective areas. All diocesan have been implementing relief, rehabilitation and development programmes for many years. There are ongoing food security programmes under implementation in their area. They have well established relation with the community and the local line ministries, which is an asset for smooth and better co- ordinated implementation of the proposed programmes. The ECC partners, Meki Catholic Secretariat and Sodo-Hosana Catholic Secretariats have been involved in relief and rehabilitation and development programmes for many years. They have ongoing development programmes, which will provide a technical support for the EGS programme that is indicated in this proposal. The Church presence in the areas and the relationship established with the local community and government officials will be an asset in the implementation of the planned activities. The EECMY South East Area Work (SEAW) will implement the operations in the three districts in Bale Zone. EECMY North Central Ethiopia Synod (NCES) will implement the operations in Dahena woreda in Wag Hamra zone and the two woredas in Afar region. Both church units have for several years been implementing relief, rehabilitation and development projects and programmes with the Lutheran World Federation. During previous ACT appeals, e.g. in 2000 and 2001 both church units did implement the relief and rehabilitation activities. The NCA have been working in close collaboration with the EECMY Church units for many years. The proposed programmes in Filtu and Liben woredas will be implemented with the EECMY/SES. Konso special woreda that is under the EECMY/SWS area of operation will be implemented with SWS.

  • Livestock and Livestock Systems in the Bale Mountains Ecoregion
    LIVESTOCK AND LIVESTOCK SYSTEMS IN THE BALE MOUNTAINS ECOREGION Fiona Flintan, Worku Chibsa, Dida Wako and Andrew Ridgewell A report for the Bale EcoRegion Sustainable Management Project, SOS Sahel Ethiopia and FARM Africa June 2008 Addis Ababa Photo: A respondent mapping grazing routes in Bale Mountains EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Livestock has been an integral part of the Bale landscape for many centuries. Until relatively recently the livestock system was extensive with small numbers of people and livestock moving in a free and mobile manner. However since the time of Haile Selassie there have been numerous influencing factors that have changed the face of livestock production in Bale. This began with the introduction of land measurement and taxes which encouraged settled agricultural expansion, aggravated by the declaration of grazing lands as ‘no-man’s lands’. At the same time large scale mechanised farms were established in the lower areas, forcing livestock producers into the higher altitude regions. More recently villagisation and resettlement programmes have promoted settlement and an increased population. However, the largest single ‘loss’ of pastoral resources occurred with the establishment of the Bale Mountains National Park (BMNP) in 1970 encompassing an area of 2400km2. This was created without the consent or even the knowledge of local resource users. The historical development of BMNP has been aimed principally, albeit intermittently, at preserving the environment as a ‘wilderness’ area by excluding habitation and customary natural resource management practices. During the former Dergue regime (1974-1991) state authority over the Park was at its strongest resulting in the forced removal of settlements and the effective colonisation of the mountain landscape.

  • Prioritization of Shelter/NFI Needs
    Prioritization of Shelter/NFI needs Date: 31st May 2018 Shelter and NFI Needs As of 18 May 2018, the overall number of displaced people is 345,000 households. This figure is based on DTM round 10, partner’s assessments, government requests, as well as the total of HH supported since July 2017. The S/NFI updated its prioritisation in early May and SNFI Cluster partners agreed on several criteria to guide prioritisation which include: - 1) type of emergency, 2) duration of displacement, and 3) sub-standard shelter conditions including IDPS hosted in collective centres and open-air sites and 4) % of vulnerable HH at IDP sites. Thresholds for the criteria were also agreed and in the subsequent analysis the cluster identified 193 IDP hosting woredas mostly in Oromia and Somali regions, as well as Tigray, Gambella and Addis Ababa municipality. A total of 261,830 HH are in need of urgent shelter and NFI assistance. At present the Cluster has a total of 57,000 kits in stocks and pipeline. The Cluster requires urgent funding to address the needs of 204,830 HHs that are living in desperate displacement conditions across the country. This caseload is predicted to increase as the flooding continues in the coming months. Shelter and NFI Priority Activities In terms of priority activities, the SNFI Cluster is in need of ES/NFI support for 140,259 HH displaced mainly due to flood and conflict under Pillar 2, primarily in Oromia and Somali Regions. In addition, the Shelter and NFI Cluster requires immediate funding for recovery activities to support 14,000 HH (8,000 rebuild and 6,000 repair) with transitional shelter support and shelter repair activities under Pillar 3.

    UNDER PEER REVIEW 1 PARTICIPATORY VARIETIES SELECTION AND EVALUATION OF IMPROVED 2 SWEET POTATO (Ipomoea Batatas (L.)VARIETIES ON-FARM AT 3 DIFFERENT AGRO-ECOLOGIES IN WOLAITA ZONES 4 5 6 Abstract: 7 Ethiopia is considered to be the one of the major producer of sweet potato and involves major 8 lands for this purpose. Whereas, varieties of sweet potato that yields maximum are not yet 9 known. So this particular study is aimed to identify the variety for high yield, quality sweet 10 potato, as well as its quantitative evaluation to be done. 11 12 Materials and methods: Area situated at Wolaita zone of SNNP regional state is considered 13 as the major study venue; whereas performance of fields are evaluated and specified the 14 number of crop yield of that particular area. 15 16 Result and Discussion: Eleven sweet potato varieties and four local varieties were prepared 17 for the preliminary evaluation. Observations came up with the following varieties namely 18 OFSP1, Kulfo, koka 6 and Hawassa 83 which were mostly preferred by farmers. The 19 varieties were divided into four sets, with each set having two test varieties and the check 20 variety. This is to ensure that farmers will not have difficulty in evaluating and comparing too 21 many varieties. 22 23 Conclusion: Variety of the potatoes that are preferred by the farmers is different from each 24 other, which are come up with Participatory varietal selection (PVS) technique. So as 25 differences in ranking are also preferred by them, which later ensure the genetically diverse factors 26 and differentials in growing yield of the crops.
