  • Dire Dawa, Ethiopia / Mobiliseyourcity Global Monitor 2021 69
    Factsheet: Dire Dawa, Ethiopia / MobiliseYourCity Global Monitor 2021 69 Dire Dawa, Ethiopia Partner city Status of the project: ongoing technical assistance Basic Information Urban area: 70 km2 Population: 320,000 | Growth rate: 4% GDP per capita: USD 855.8 (2019) Modal Share Informal public transport: 42% Walking: 46% Private cars: 4% Private motorbikes or 2-wheelers: 1% Other: 8% National GHG emissions per capita: 1.60 (tCO2eq) Exposure to climate change: HIGH Region capital city Context Located on a large flat plain between Addis Ababa and Djiouti, Dire Dawa is meant to become the main economical hub of eastern Ethiopia. Nowadays, it presents a high density of commercial activities, including markets that generate important flows of goods and people at different scale, putting some pressure over roads and public spaces. In the midterm, national freight transit shall boom, along with the development of the national road network and the integration of the new railway into the logistic system. 477 000 trips are made daily in Dire Dawa. Mobility patterns reveal a relatively high propension to move (1.8 daily trips per inhabitants). Dire Dawa is located on a secondary national/international freight corridor between Addis Abeba and Djibouti, meaning that a signifcant volume of trucks transits through the city. Dire Dawa currently does not have any transport master plan. Two railway lines currently serve Dire Dawa. The century old Ethio-Djiboutian railway is now nearly disused and only keeps one or two regional services between Dire Dawa and Dewele at the Djibutian border. The new Chinese built railway line between Addis Abeba and Djibouti is operating since 2018 and is increasing both passenger and freight services with a planned dry port near the new station.

  • FOREWORD Statistical Data That Reflect the Socio-Economic And
    FOREWORD Statistical data that reflect the socio-economic and demographic conditions of the residents of a country are useful for designing and preparation of development plans as well as for monitoring and evaluation of the impact of the implementation of the development plans. These statistical data include population size, age, sex, literacy and education, marital status, housing stocks and conditions …etc. In order to fill the gap for these socio-economic and demographic data need, Ethiopia has conducted its third Population and Housing Census in the months of May and November 2007. The 2007 Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia was conducted under the auspices of the Population Census Commission that was established by a proclamation No. 449/1997. The Commission is chaired by the Deputy Prime Minister and the members of the commission were drawn from various relevant Ministries, Regional state representatives, House of Federation, National Electoral Board and the Central Statistical Agency, serving as the Office of the Census Commission (Secretariat). According to the proclamation, the processing, evaluation and analyses of the data collected in this census as well as its dissemination are the major responsibilities of this office. Thus, the Office of the Population Census Commission is pleased to present the census report entitled “The 2007 Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia: Statistical Report for Addis Ababa City Administration” for the users. Subsequently, another report which deals with detailed analysis of the result of the 2007 Population and Housing Census data is in the process of being prepared and will also be prepared and printed soon. Before the conduct of a census enumeration, numbers of preparatory activities were also carried-out.
