In order to assess the challenges and opportunity of live animal export of Somali region of Jigjiga zone, a total (census) of 20 individual live animal exporters were surveyed. In the process of answering the basic questions, a questionnaire that include demographic profiles, trading practices, factors that challenge live animal export was designed in open ended, closed ended and likert scales. Moreover, interviews were held with top officials of ARDB, RCA and animal health bureau. After the data has been collected, it was analyzed using simple statistical techniques (tables and percentages) and descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviations).The results of the study indicates the limited availability of financial institutions, unavailability of formal live animal exporters institutions, high marketing costs, multiple taxations, bureaucracy of government institutions, harassment by petty officials, and overall loose relationship with government bodies were challenging live animal export of the Jigjiga zone. It also shows that exporters were highly benefited from high trust and strong relationship with their business partners, familiarity with animal quality attributes demanded in importing countries and strong clan arrangements. The study also found that formal live animal export of the area is increasing but the illegal live animal export was highly challenging the formal live animal exporters and the revenue of the region. Along this, the study found different participants acting in live animal export system. Based on the major findings, recommendations were forwarded to existing and potential live animal exporters, and concerned government bodies. Key words: challenges, opportunities, export and participants.

Federalism and Autonomy 6 Conflicts in the Somali Region 6.1 Introduction The preceding chapter gave a general background to the history and ethnic makeup of the study regions. In contrast, this chapter presents the impact of federal restructuring on intra and inter-clan relationships in the newly constituted Somali region. In fact, some of the theoretical propositions about the role of federalism in decentralising conflicts through ‘proliferation of points of power,’ outlined in chapter 2 appear to have been worked in the SNRS. In other words, federal restructuring by making resources such as political appointments, civil service jobs, regional/local budget and others available at local and regional levels impelled both intra and inter-clan contestations that often lead into violence. The division that emerged between the dominant Ogaden and the non-Ogadeni clans in the wake of ethnic regionalisation appeared to reduce possible threats from the Somali region to the political centre. However, inter-clan autonomy conflicts in the region are typically violent and localised.

The Project Team comprised: Luciano Borin (Team Leader), Paul Ballard (Private Sector Development), Carine Du Marchie and Gerda Heyde (WID consultants),Tom O'Connor (Gas Field Geology), Thuvara Nayar (Refinery Operations), Harry Sasson (Privatization, consultant) Maurizia Tovo (Regional Development), Salman Zaheer (Financial and Economic Analysis, consultant). The project will be located in the part of Region 5 traditionally known as the Ogaden. In view of the project implicationsvis-a-vis the fragility of the Ogaden's environment, both human and natural, a special sub-team, coordinated by Maurizia Tovo, was established to prepare an EnvironmentalAssessment. The sub-teamincluded the following consultants:Mohamoud Ayan (RangelandEcologist), Richard Hogg (Anthropologist)and Marino Martin (IndustrialPollution Specialist). A number of visits to key areas and communitieslikely to be affected by the Calub Gas DevelopmentProject took place between May and December 1992. Discussionswere held with government agencies, donors and NGO's working in the region, as well as with traditional leaders, local authorities, women's groups and community members. The resulting report, therefore, reflects the knowledgeand wisdomof a large number of individualsthoroughly familiar with the area under study. The draft report was submitted to the Government for review and approval, and it benefitted from the contributions of the Water Commission, the Ministry of Environmental Protectionand Natural ResourceDevelopment, the Ministry of Planning, and the Third Livestock Project (Ministry of Agriculture).

  • Sequela of Female Genital Mutilation on Birth Outcomes in Jijiga Town, Ethiopian Somali Region: a Prospective Cohort Study
    Gebremicheal et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2018) 18:305 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-018-1937-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Sequela of female genital mutilation on birth outcomes in Jijiga town, Ethiopian Somali region: a prospective cohort study Kiros Gebremicheal1*, Fisehaye Alemseged2, Haimanot Ewunetu2, Daniel Tolossa3, Abdibari Ma’alin1, Mahlet Yewondwessen1 and Samuel Melaku4 Abstract Background: In Ethiopia, female genital mutilation (FGM) remains a serious concern and has affected 23.8 million women and girls, with the highest prevalence in Somali regional state. Even though FGM is reported to be associated with a range of obstetric complications, little is known about its effects on childbirth in the region. Therefore, the objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that FGM is a contributing factor to the increased risk of complication during childbirth. Methods: Facility based cohort study, involving 142 parturients with FGM and 139 parturients without FGM, was conducted in Jijiga town from October to December, 2014. The study participants were recruited by consecutive sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured interviewer administered questionnaire and observational checklists. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 16 and STATA version 11. Results: The existence of FGM was significantly associated with perinealtear [RR = 2.52 (95% CI 1.26–5.02)], postpartum blood loss [RR = 3.14 (95% CI 1.27–7.78)], outlet obstruction [RR = 1.83 (95% CI 1.19–2.79)] and emergency caesarean section [RR = 1.52 (95% CI 1.04–2.22)]. FGM type I and FGM type II did not demonstrate any association with prolonged 2nd stage of labour, emergency caesarean section, postpartum blood loss, and APGAR score < 7.

Peripherality, Ethnic Makeup 5 and History: Somali and Benishangul-Gumuz Regions 5.1 Introduction The previous chapter examined the asymmetrical features of Ethiopian federalism and provided an outline about emerging trends of autonomy conflicts at the country level. The task of this chapter is, however, to provide a general background on the two study regions – Somali and Benishangul-Gumuz. Both regions share a number of similarities. For instance, they were historically peripheral to the Ethiopian State and hence their constituent ethnic groups have little presence in the national political landscape. They also suffered from chronic marginality in terms of social and physical infrastructure development. Indeed, in spite of some of the positive changes since 1992, the two regions still lag significantly behind the highland regions. Besides peripherality, both regions have cross-border ethnic ties. In fact, the international boundaries that Ethiopia shares with the Sudan and Somalia divide the ethnic groups of the two regions. There is, however, some variance in the significance of the ethnic groups to the politics of the neighbouring countries.
