  • Study on the Human Dimensions of the Financial Crisis in Ethiopia
    STUDY ON THE HUMAN DIMENSIONS OF THE FINANCIAL CRISIS IN ETHIOPIA FINAL REPORT June 2011 Addis Ababa, Ethiopia 1 Acknowledgments In December 2009, the Rapid Impact and Vulnerability Analysis Fund (RIVAF) was launched by the United Nations as part of the Global Pulse Initiative, to support innovative, real-time data collection and analysis to help develop a better understanding of how vulnerable populations cope with impacts of global crises. RIVAF was generously funded by the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development (DfID), and the Government of Sweden with UNFPA co-financing; this study was made possible due to this generous contribution. UNFPA Ethiopia commissioned the Center for Development Consulting (CDC) to undertake the Study. The following professionals of the Center were in charge of the full project implementation and coordination from the preparation of the proposal, the design of the data collection tools, the carrying out of the assessment, to the writing of the reports: Lulit Mitik Beyene (PhD), Team leader and Economist Emezat Hailu Mengesha (PhD), Gender specialist Zelalem Hailegiorgis, Statistician The authors are grateful for the feedback and information provided by different stakeholders including the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development, The Ministry of Education, The Ministry of Women, Children and Youth, The Ministry of Health, The National Bank of Ethiopia, and the Central Statistical Authority. At the regional level, the project has benefited from the invaluable collaboration and input from the Regional Agriculture and Rural Development, Education, Women’s Affairs, Health, Finance, and HAPPCO HIV Offices/Bureaus. The team is most grateful to the UNFPA Ethiopia and Headquarter Offices for their invaluable comments and feedback.

  • Livelihood Zones Analysis Ethiopia
    Improved livelihoods for smallholder farmers LIVELIHOOD ZONES ANALYSIS A tool for planning agricultural water management investments Ethiopia Prepared by Dr. Girma Medhin in consultation with FAO, 2011 About this report The AgWater Solutions Project aimed at designing agricultural water management (AWM) strategies for smallholder farmers in sub Saharan Africa and in India. The project was managed by the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) and operated jointly with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), the Stockholm Environmental Institute (SEI) and International Development Enterprise (IDE). It was implemented in Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Tanzania, Zambia and in the States of Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal in India. Several studies have highlighted the potential of AWM for poverty alleviation. In practice, however, adoption rates of AWM solutions remain low, and where adoption has taken place locally, programmes aimed at disseminating these solutions often remain a challenge. The overall goal of the project was to stimulate and support successful pro-poor, gender-equitable AWM investments, policies and implementation strategies through concrete, evidence-based knowledge and decision-making tools. The project has examined AWM interventions at the farm, community, watershed, and national levels. It has analyzed opportunities and constraints of a number of small-scale AWM interventions in several pilot research sites across the different project countries, and assessed their potential in different agro-climatic, socio-economic and political contexts. This report was prepared as part of the efforts to assess the potential for AWM solutions at national level. The livelihood zones analysis divides the country in a series of areas where rural people share relatively homogeneous living conditions on the basis of a combination of biophysical and socio-economic determinants.
