Peace and Development Office has said that land issues at this location are sensitive because it is right on the border with Benishangul-Gumuz. ES/NFI CUMULATIVE RESPONSE SINCE MAY 2019 Target Reached/ Pipelined Gap Activity (# ongoing Partners Zones (# HHs) (# HHs) HHs) (# HHs) Full ESNFI kits/cash GOAL, IOM, IRC, East Wollega, West 19,327 equivalent/cash NRC, SCI, NCS Wollega, Kamashi for rent 45,090 5,494 17,306 Emergency shelter 1,094 IOM, EECMY East Wollega kits NFI kits/partial East Wollega, West 1,423 FH Ethiopia, IOM kits Wollega Shelter IOM, IRC, NCS, East Wollega, West 10,438 4,376 0 3,188 reconstruction NRC Wollega, Kamashi OPERATIONAL CHALLENGES • Agreeing on beneficiary lists with local authorities and completing verification processes are time-consuming because of exclusion issues and access (sites are dispersed, topography is difficult to navigate). • Beneficiary verification process is being interpreted differently by partners. The targeting/selection process is sometimes understood as verification in and of itself, which can lead to unsystematic selection, beneficiary perception of biased targeting, duplications and exclusions. • Different displacement, loss and damage numbers are reported at each administration level, making it difficult to calculate needs and gaps accurately. OPERATIONAL CHALLENGES • Over a month of no internet connection in all 3 zones (East Wollega, West Wollega, Kamashi). • Road closure and no phone connection in West Wollega for over a month. Only Gimbi town was accessible two weeks ago. Lost all access to West Wollega this week. • No phone connection in Kamashi. • Different assistance packages are being given in the same woredas and sometimes within the same kebele. This is causing confusion among local authorities and leading to a lot of beneficiary complaints. Risk of cross-border tensions if packages are not harmonized. OPERATIONAL CHALLENGES • Some assistance packages are targeting both partial and fully damaged houses, while others are targeting only fully damaged houses. Need to harmonize prioritized groups to reduce cross-border tensions. • Still no official access to secondary IDPs in East and West Wollega. Some progress made by OCHA in getting Oromia regional authorities to agree to an interagency multisectoral assessment of secondary IDPs, but it was suspended because of the security situation in West Wollega. • Partners are phasing out of West Wollega despite a significant remaining gap (only 18% of people in need reached). No planned funding for 2020. ACTION POINTS • S/NFI Cluster SOPs to standardize processes have been shared twice. They need to be reviewed by partners and finalized so that everyone is on the same page. • Assistance packages shared during the TWiG have been compiled and analyzed. The results along with a beneficiary feedback survey and market assessment survey will be circulated at the next TWiG meeting. Need for all partners to be present during TWiG meetings to gather further information and take decisions. b) Update on Somali Region • Regional DRMB updated on the effects of desert locust on pasture and crops and might result negative impact on pasture and crop production, if urgent measures are not taken the livelihood of both pastoralist and agropastoral communities could be jeopardized. • IOM: 230 HHs newly displaced IDPs conflict IDPs in Asli kebele of Afdem woreda and 110 HHs in Hariso town of Gablalu woreda of Siti zone, with high need of ESNFIs and other humanitarian assistant was identified by DTM team. • SCDO (Local NGO): visited IDP relocates in Goljano town and identified high need of household items especially emergency shelter, kitchen set and sleeping mats for IDP relocates in Goljano town. • Wild fire was also reported in Danan and Elele woredas of Shabele zone having displaced 86HHs with 5 individuals injured. • Cholera outbreak was also reported in Kelafo woreda with 114 admissions 5.

  • Heading with Word in Woodblock
    Oromia Region, Area brief Regional Overview Oromia (sometimes spelled Oromiya, in the Oromo language) is one of the nine regions of Ethiopia. The 2007 census reported its population at over 28 million, making it the largest state in terms of both population and area. Oromia shares a boundary with every Region of Ethiopia except for the Tigray Region. With an estimated area of 353,006.81 square kilometers, this region has an estimated population density of 76.93 people per square kilometer. The region includes the former major Ethiopian provinces Arsi, Bale, Hararghe, Illubabor, Kaffa, Shewa, Sidamo, and Welega provinces. Its current capital is officially Addis Ababa (Oromo: Finfinne). Administratively, Adama serves as a center for the regional state. Other important cities and towns include Adama, Ambo, Asella, Bishoftu, Dembidolo, Fiche, Gimbi, Goba, Jimma, Metu, Negele Boran, Nekemte, Shashamane and Waliso. The Regional infant mortality rate is 76 infant deaths per 1,000 live births, similar to the nationwide average of 77; at least half of these deaths occurr in the infants’ first month of life. Low latrine coverage and little awareness of basic hygiene practices across many parts of the region are having a significant impact on the health and wellbeing of children and their families. In view of the above Save the Children in collaboration with the government and other key allies’ works to achieve MDG 4 and 5 by reducing maternal, newborn and child deaths. As part of our EVERYONE campaign we work to raise awareness in communities about safe delivery and child caring practices. We also work with relevant partners to improve the WASH services and practices at household and facility level.

  • Shelter and Non-Food Assessment of East and West Wollega Zone, Oromia Regional State
    Shelter and Non-Food Assessment of East and West Wollega Zone, Oromia Regional State Date: February 26, 2019 1.0 Executive Summary The Shelter/NFI Cluster in coordination with IOM, CRS, NDRMC, GOAL, and NRC carried out a Shelter/NFI needs assessment between Feb 4 and Feb 1, 2019, with the aim to better inform humanitarian response planning and delivery of the IDPs in West and East Wollega, Oromia. The findings include: ▪ In East Wollega, 95% of the IDPs are settled in collective sites such as youth centres, multipurpose buildings, and temporary shelters while the rest are living with the host community. ▪ In West Wollega, 90% of the IDPs are residing in collective sites and the remaining (10%) are living with the host community either renting or accommodated by families and friends. ▪ Over 63% of IDPs in collective centres and temporary shelters are living in congested conditions, furthermore; lack of privacy, exposure to weather, and unavailability of light in the sites are their main concerns. ▪ In West Wollega all respondent cited Emergency Shelter Kit as their first priority followed by Kitchen and Bedding Sets. Whilst in East Wollega all respondents stated Bedding sets as their first priority followed by Kitchen set. 1 2.0 Geographical Area The needs assessment is focused on 12 most affected woredas in East and West Wollega. The prioritization of woreda is guided by the number of IDPs verse the local population and organization presence providing Shelter/NFIs. The five most affected woreda in East Wollega, Nekemte, Sassiga, Haro Limu and Diga were visited by the assessment team, however; out of the 12 priorities woredas in West Wollega, only seven are accessible.
