  • Historical Survey of Limmu Genet Town from Its Foundation up to Present
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 6, ISSUE 07, JULY 2017 ISSN 2277-8616 Historical Survey Of Limmu Genet Town From Its Foundation Up To Present Dagm Alemayehu Tegegn Abstract: The process of modern urbanization in Ethiopia began to take shape since the later part of the nineteenth century. The territorial expansion of emperor Menelik (r. 1889 –1913), political stability and effective centralization and bureaucratization of government brought relative acceleration of the pace of urbanization in Ethiopia; the improvement of the system of transportation and communication are identified as factors that contributed to this new phase of urban development. Central government expansion to the south led to the appearance of garrison centers which gradually developed to small- sized urban center or Katama. The garrison were established either on already existing settlements or on fresh sites and also physically they were situated on hill tops. Consequently, Limmu Genet town was founded on the former Limmu Ennarya state‘s territory as a result of the territorial expansion of the central government and system of administration. Although the history of the town and its people trace many year back to the present, no historical study has been conducted on. Therefore the aim of this study is to explore the history of Limmu Genet town from its foundation up to present. Keywords: Limmu Ennary, Limmu Genet, Urbanization, Development ———————————————————— 1. Historical Background of the Study Area its production. The production and marketing of forest coffee spread the fame and prestige of Limmu Enarya ( The early history of Limmu Oromo Mohammeed Hassen, 1994). The name Limmu Ennarya is The history of Limmu Genet can be traced back to the rise derived from a combination of the name of the medieval of the Limmu Oromo clans, which became kingdoms or state of Ennarya and the Oromo clan name who settled in states along the Gibe river basin.

  • Anticipating Violence Intelligently Functional Impacts of Integrating Intelligence Products Into Regional Conflict Early Warning Systems
    ANTICIPATING VIOLENCE INTELLIGENTLY FUNCTIONAL IMPACTS OF INTEGRATING INTELLIGENCE PRODUCTS INTO REGIONAL CONFLICT EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS AARON ELI VILLARRUEL MORA MASTER THESIS IN PEACE AND CONFLICT STUDIES DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF OSLO AUTUMN 2009 i To my family. The original and new members (You know who you are). ii Acknowledgements Ideas spawn projects that eventually become research. This case is not the exception. Even though the original idea and aims resulted from personal interests and wonder, this final product has been benefited from the worthy and constructing contributions of fellow scholars, institutional supports and personal belief in the endeavour. Without following an order of importance since any input has been instrumental in the stage it was received, I want to express my recognition and gratitude to those who deserve it. Thanks to Martin Austvoll Nome, to his patience, sincere involvement and methodological support in the early phase of this enquiry, the idea took shape and gained analytical precision for further development. My deep gratitude to Karin Dokken, whose sound, devoted and pleasant supervision, encouragement and time allowed the proper fulfilment of this thesis. Thank you for reminding me that in research the art of communication is equally as important as systematic investigation. I am grateful to the Conflict Early Warning and Response Mechanism of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, for providing excellent working conditions and facilitating this study and my stay in Addis Ababa. Without the willingness and time of each of the key informants this analysis would have never been substantiated, thence I gratefully appreciate it. Thanks to fellow colleagues and friends Rasmus Christian Bering, Jakob Aasland Ravndal and Sébastien Miraglia-Yossen for your rhizomatic feedback and comments on early ideas and drafts.

  • Ministry of Water Resources Water Sector Development Program
    Volume I 1 Executive Summary FEDERAL DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF ETHIOPIA MINISTRY OF WATER RESOURCES WATER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM MAIN REPORT VOLUME I OCTOBER 2002 Volume I 2 Executive Summary 1. Context and Background 1.1 Physical Features of the Socio-economic Context Ethiopia is naturally endowed with water resources that could easily satisfy its domestic requirements for irrigation and hydropower, if sufficient financial resources were made available. The geographical location of Ethiopia and its favorable climate provide a relatively high amount of rainfall for the sub- Saharan African region. Annual surface runoff, excluding groundwater, is estimated to be about 122 billion m³ of water. Groundwater resources are estimated to be around 2.6 billion m³. Ethiopia is also blessed with major rivers, although between 80 and 90 per cent of the water resources are found in the 4 river basins of Abay (Blue Nile), Tekeze, Baro Akobo, and Omo Gibe in western parts of Ethiopia where no more than 30 to 40 per cent of Ethiopia’s population live. The country has about 3.7 million hectares of potentially irrigable land, over which 75,000 ha of large-scale and 72,000 ha of small-scale irrigation schemes had been developed by 1996. Also by that year, the water supply system had been extended to only 1 quarter of the total population to provide clean water for domestic use. Of the hydropower potential of more than 135,000 GWh per year, perhaps only 1 per cent so far has been exploited. Close to 30 million Ethiopians of a total population of about 64 million live in absolute poverty.

  • The Role of Indigenous Healing Practices in Environmental Protection Among the Maccaa Oromo of Ilu Abbaa Bora and Jimma Zones, Ethiopia
    Available online at www.sserr.ro Social Sciences and Education Research Review (4) 1 30-53 (2017) ISSN 2393–1264 ISSN–L 2392–9863 THE ROLE OF INDIGENOUS HEALING PRACTICES IN ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AMONG THE MACCAA OROMO OF ILU ABBAA BORA AND JIMMA ZONES, ETHIOPIA Milkessa Edae TUFA1 , Fesseha Mulu GEBREMARIAM2 1Department of Oromo Folklore and Literature, Jimma University, Ethiopia E-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Governance and Development Studies, Jimma University, Ethiopia E-mails: [email protected] or [email protected] Abstract This article mainly attempted to explore the role of utilizing indigenous medicines in environmental protection among the Maccaa Oromo of Jimma and Iluu Abba bora zone, south-western Ethiopia. To this end, 4 separate interviews with 4 interviewees, 2 focus group discussions with 17 participants, and non- participant field observation were conducted to generate significant and reliable data. Besides, the researchers employed secondary data to make the study more significant and complete. The findings of the study show that since the source of medicines is the environment, the community protects their environment unless the society wouldn’t accessed the natural medicines they need. The study also reveals that most of these folk medicines used by the Maccaa Oromos are from 30 plants. This further indicates the society protects the natural environment to get the plants they use for medication. Thus, folk healing practices are crucial on the one hand to treat illnesses, and to protect the ecosystem on the other hand. However, these societal knowledge is undermined as well as they are being replaced by western (scientific) knowledge, modern medicines.
