EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PRIME is a five-year, USAID-funded initiative designed to support resilience among pastoralist communities in Ethiopia, and thus enhance prospects for long-term development in Ethiopia’s dryland landscape where the pastoralist livelihood system prevails. Financed through Feed the Future (FTF) and Global Climate Change (GCC) facilities, PRIME was designed to be transformative and innovative, and to achieve scale through market-driven approaches to livestock production and livelihood diversification that simultaneously support dryland communities to adapt to a changing climate. In order to achieve its overall goal of increasing household incomes and enhancing resilience to climate change through market linkages, the program works to meet the following five major objectives (intermediate results): 1) Improve productivity and competitiveness of livestock and livestock products; 2) Enhance pastoralists’ adaptation to climate change; 3) Strengthen alternative livelihoods for households transitioning out of pastoralism; 4) Ensure enhanced innovation, learning and knowledge management; and 5) Improve nutritional status of targeted households through targeted, sustained and evidence- based interventions. Highlights from Quarter 1 of FY 19 This report summarizes the key activities implemented, and the associated accomplishments for PRIME during quarter one of FY2019 which covers between 1 October 2018 and 31 December 2018. Major accomplishments for this quarter include: INTERMEDIATE RESULT 1: IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY AND COMPETITIVENESS OF LIVESTOCK AND LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS: Despite the damage to one of its milk transporting trucks during the violent unrest in Jigjiga on the 4th of August 2018, Berwako Milk processing plant has continued collecting raw milk from milk collecting cooperatives and processing the milk to reach more markets in the Eastern cluster. During the reporting quarter the plant has purchased 58,500 liters of milk from El-gari milk collection center in Babile Somali directly benefiting eighty-nine (89) households. In turn, Berwaqo has processed and produced 108,200 bottles of camel milk (half liter each) and sold them in Jigjiga, Harar, Awaday, and Dire Dawa towns; generating a total revenue of ETB 2,364,000 (=USD 85,963) from the sales. Likewise, milk collection centers in the Southern cluster have provided market access for 3,925 pastoralist households thereby reducing pastoralists’ transaction and other implicit costs. Performance monitoring of those milk collection centers indicated that they have sold a total volume of 73,800 liters of milk and generated revenue amounting ETB 2,377,350 in the reporting quarter. Two new milk-processing factories namely Haldhaa Milk Processing Factory in Jigjiga and Haji Khalif Milk Processing Factory in Degahble (Fafan) are emerging through independent investors may result in a “crowding-in”, with potential prospects of fair competition, better prices, and alternative markets for pastoralists/agro-pastoralists. Haldhaa Milk Processing Factory has started its operation about a week ago and it is already present in the market while Haji Khalif Milk Processing Factory is aiming to start operation within the next three months. 4 Performance monitoring of, PRIME-supported, twenty-seven (27) Private Veterinary Pharmacies operating in Jarar, Fafan and Siti zones in Somali Region has indicated they have served 20,258 households who visited PVPs to buy veterinary drugs and receive services. Accordingly, those PVPs have generated a total revenue of ETB 1,504,930 (=USD 54,724) working through 150 community animal health workers (CAHWs) having established linkage with PVPs and through direct sales of veterinary drugs and services. Similarly, performance monitoring of, PRIME-supported, seven (7) Private Veterinary Pharmacies (PVPs) in the Southern cluster have supplied quality veterinary drugs and services to 8,740 pastoralist and agro-pastoralist households generating total revenue of ETB 2,078,280 (=USD 75,849) during this reporting quarter. This performance has been accomplished through sixty-two (62) CAHWs who have established business partnerships with PVPs and through direct sales of veterinary drugs to remote pastoralist/agro-pastoralist communities through extended outreach services. INTERMEDIATE RESULT 2: CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION AND NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: During the reporting quarter, PRIME continued supporting the ongoing activities and processes under both the Natural Resource Management and Climate Change Adaptation. The natural resource management component has been facilitating and supporting rangeland council’ dialogues, restoration of rangelands, endorsement of rangeland management plans and regional rangeland management learning workshops.

Box: 238, Jigjiga, Ethiopia 2Department of Microbiology and Public Health, Jigjiga University, P.O. Box: 1020, Jigjiga, Ethiopia Abstract: Suspected measles outbreak was notified from Degahbour hospital to the Emergency Management Team at the Regional Health Bureau. A team of experts was dispatched to the site with the objectives of confirming the existence of the outbreak, initiate measures and formulate recommendations based on the results of present outbreak investigation. We conducted descriptive cross sectional study from February to March 2016. We reviewed medical records of suspected cases; we interviewed the Health care workers, visited affected household and interviewed parents and guardians of cases. We used line list for describing measles cases interms of time, place and person. We collected five blood samples from patients for Lab confirmation. We entered and analyzed using Epi-Info7 version 7.1.0.6. During the investigation period, 406 measles cases with 5 deaths were reported with overall Attack Rate (AR) and Case Fatality Rate (CFR) was (28.2/10, 000 population, 1.2%) respectively. High AR (28.6/10000population) was reported from male. The CFR difference was not statistically significant (P value=0.66) by sex. High AR (127/10000population) was reported from age group < 1 years. When we compared AR by those < 5 years and >5 years, there was statistically significant difference (P-value= 0.00).
