Ms. Almaz Tadesse iv Joint Scientifc Journal of National Meteorological Agency and Ethiopian Meteorological Society Foreword The core business of National Meteorological Agency of Ethiopia (NMA) is to provide essential Weather, Climate and Early Warning services that contribute to socio-economic activities of the Nation and protect lives and property. This is achieved by collecting, analyzing forecasting and communicating Meteorological and related information to users. In provision of weather, climate and environment related services it is essential to put the users first and fully understanding why they need our services in their respective decision making systems. As clearly stipulated in the proclamation of NMA establishment, the main duties and responsibilities of NMA is to establish and operate national network of meteorological stations, collect all meteorological data and exchange in accordance of international agreement. Besides to this the Agency is also responsible to publish and disseminate meteorological information and forecast, provide early warning and advice on adverse weather and climate conditions and undertake meteorological research and studies. Therefore, conducting research and studies in the field of meteorology and applied sciences, which support the operational activities of the Agency and socio-economic development of the country, is among the mandates given to NMA by the Government of Ethiopia by proclamation number 201/1980s. By taking into account the country’s Second Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP II), NMA has developed sector-specific GTP II (2008-2012 Ethiopian Calendar) among other plans, publishing eleven research papers that enhances the Agency to provide timely and accurate weather information and climate services. For this reason, this research book, which has two chapters, is intended to support operational activities of the Agency and deliver effective meteorological services for the wider range of multi sector institutions, disaster risk managers, research communities and general public in Ethiopia. NMA has published a number of research series publications so far, but this Research Book is different among others since it encompasses different research findings of our users. Last but not least, NMA will continue to produce and disseminate research in order to deliver quality services to key socio economic sectors as well as to meet our customer’s satisfaction. Fetene Teshome Director General, National Meteorological Agency of Ethiopia v Joint Scientifc Journal of National Meteorological Agency and Ethiopian Meteorological Society Preface One of the key targets of National Meteorological Agency (NMA) of Ethiopia via Meteorological Research and Study Directorate in the Second Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP II), which spans from the period 2008 to 2012 Ethiopian calendar, is to produce eleven research findings and publish these research products and others in the field of Meteorology and [related] applied sciences. Therefore, this research book has been designed to meet the requirements of our users with the following main objectives: - To improve weather and climate services of the Agency To support sustainable economic and social development of the country To document and disseminate research outputs for internal and external users of the Agency Based on the contents of the outputs this Research Book is divided in to two chapters. The first chapter contains research outputs from Meteorological data and Climatology, Meteorological Electronic and ICT and Meteorological Instrument and Civil Works Services provision. The second chapter focuses on improving Forecast, Early Warning and Applied Meteorological Services. In the process of publication of this research outputs contribution of individuals and society plays unreserved effort. In view of this, Meteorological Research and Study Directorate would like to thank all those who contributed by any means, particularly during the review and editorial process of the manuscript: Special thanks go to Research Editorial Board, Senior scientists of NMA experts; Directors of Head Quarter Directorate and Regional Meteorological Services Centers and special recognition for the research experts.

It is similar in size to South Africa and Egypt, and is the 2nd most populous country in Africa (after Nigeria). Until 1993, Eritrea was incorporated as part of Ethiopia. Ethiopia was occupied by Italy from 1936 to 1941, but otherwise has not been colonised by a European power. Geographical names policy PCGN policy for geographical names in Ethiopia is to apply the BGN/PCGN 1967 Romanization System for Amharic to names in their original script forms. This system is used on official US and UK cartographic products. 1 As of February 2020, four regional languages have been elevated to the status of working federal government languages: Oromo; Tigrinya; Somali and Afar. 2 ISO 639 codes are given for languages mentioned in this Factfile. 3 Ge’ez (or Ethiopic) is a group name for a number of alphabets, including Tigrinya and Amharic: they are ‘abugida’ scripts, in which each character carries an inherent vowel (e.g.

  • The Role of Community Radio for Integrated and Sustainable Development in Ethiopia: a Critical Review on the Holistic Approach D
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 10 December 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202012.0260.v1 The Role of Community Radio for Integrated and Sustainable Development in Ethiopia: A Critical Review on the Holistic Approach Destaw Bayable Yemer Guna Tana Integrated Field Research & Development Center, Debre Tabor University, Ethiopia Email: [email protected] Abstract Community radios play a paramount role in the development of the community. Community radio stations have been highly engaged in addressing social, economic, cultural, educational, health, environmental, sanitation, and disaster issues effectively and strategically using local languages in context. Community radios are also used to express, and share indigenous views, thoughts, ideas, problems, and perspectives of local people. The purpose of this analysis is to explore the role of community radio for integrated and sustainable development in Ethiopia. It used a systematic narrative review. Nine research works and five assessments report were selected purposively and analyzed in a quantitative approach. Currently, in Ethiopia, there are 50 community radio stations that received broadcast licenses from Ethiopian Broadcast Authority with four types of licensing and broadcasting in 29 local languages. Community radio helps the community to identify their common goals, create holistic plans, monitor the progress of their developmental activities, and guide on sustainable development. It contributes to integrated and sustainable development in a collaborative and creative process that cultivates the social, economic, and political conditions needed for the community to succeed which aimed to improve and sustain the livelihoods of the community. However, the media can’t achieve its target goal to support the development activities and bring holistic development of the community.
