received in many woredas of East Hararghe zone since the month of July through August and continuing in some woredas, huge hectares of agricultural crop lands were damaged by flood, land slide, hailstorms and water logging. East Hararghe zone DRMO called for a multi-agency rapid assessment to know the depth of the impact in order to advise an evidence-based humanitarian assistance. Accordingly, this Multi-Agency Flood Rapid Need Assessment was conducted from 23-29 September 2020 with the lead of Zone DRMO and OCHA. In this assessment,5 UN Agencies (WFP, UNICEF, WHO, IOM and OCHA) and 8 INGOs (GOAL, CARE,HCS,AAH,IMC,LWF,ZOA and WVI) have participated.Moreover,government sectors-DRMO, Agriculture and Water office have taken part in the assessment. Key findings • The team visited 12 of the 13 affected woredas which is 92.3% coverage of the affected woredas.Due to the heavy and extremely above normal rains received,flood,land slide, water logging and hailstorms were the major weather related hazards resulting in disasters reported from almost all the visited woredas. • 240 kebeles (63.8%) out of the total kebeles (376) of the visited woredas were affected either by flood, or land slide or hailstorm or water logging. • A total of 556,499 (19.5%) people out of the visited woreda population (2,854,410) were affected. This figure is about double of the data obtained from the zone DRMO right at the beginning of the incident. The major difference was justified due to the continued impact of the flood in most of the woredas after their first reports made to the zone DRMO. • 113,536HHs(53637M,5371F) out of the total visited woreda HH population of 522,436 HHs have been affected. This means,21.7% of the HHs in the visited woredas have been affected by the incidents. • 50% of the affected HHs-56768HHs (283840 people) were reported under severe food insecurity condition due to the flood impact. These people need urgent food responses. But proper targeting of those included in PSNP or in emergency relief (HRP) beneficiaries needs to be done properly. • According to the reports obtained from the woredas and visits made to some places, a total of 1,195HHs(728M,154F) were displaced either by flood or land slide. The total displaced population are 5542.Some of the displaced population are sheltered in schools and others are hosted with their relatives in the community. Those sheltered in schools are in dire need of food and NFI responses particularly in Deder and Melka Belo woredas. • A total of 38,104.57 hectares of crop lands belonging to 113,536HHs were damaged out of which 31,869.25 hectares of crop lands were damaged due to flood,840.62 hectares of land affected by land slide,3632 hectares of Meher crops were damaged by water logging and 1762.7 hectares of crops were affected by hailstorms. This is expected to contribute to significant loss in Meher production. Even during the time of the assessment, the impact has been observed in lack of green harvests which put many households under food insecurity condition. This has been manifested in an increased report 4 of labour migration in almost all the visited woredas. In Kurfa Challe woreda only, over 1000HHs reported for labour migration. • 38 human deaths and 1420 livestock deaths were reported within 2 months’ time- from July through August 2020. • A total of 1875 houses were damaged out of which 513 were totally damaged and the remaining 1362 houses were partially damaged. About 50% of the houses with partial damages were rehabilitated by the support of the host community whereas those houses with total damages and the remaining 50% of those with partial damages needs external support. • The flood and landslide also resulted in household property damages estimated to birr 49,605,502. The loss is expected to be more as estimates from some woredas were not provided. • About 124 water

  • COUNTRY Food Security Update
    ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update September 2013 Crops are at their normal developmental stages in most parts of the country Figure 1. Projected food security outcomes, KEY MESSAGES September 2013 • Following the mostly normal performance of the June to September Kiremt rains, most crops are at their normally expected developmental stage. A near normal Meher harvest is expected in most parts of the country. However, in places where Kiremt rains started late and in areas where some weather-related hazards occurred, some below normal production is anticipated. • Market prices of most staple cereals remain stable at their elevated levels compared to previous months, but prices are likely to fall slightly starting in October due to the expected near normal Meher production in most parts of the country, which, in turn, will also improve household-level food access from October to December. Source: FEWS NET Ethiopia • Overall, current nutritional status compared to June/July has slightly improved or remains the same with exceptions in Figure 2. Projected food security outcomes, some areas in northeastern Tigray and Amhara Regions as October to December 2013 well as some parts of East Hararghe Zone in Oromia Region. In these areas, there are indications of deteriorating nutritional status due to the well below average Belg harvest and the current absence of a green harvest from long-cycle Meher crops. CURRENT SITUATION • Cumulative Kiremt rainfall from June to September was normal to above normal and evenly distributed in all of Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region (SNNPR), in most parts of Amhara, in central and western parts Oromia, and in the central parts of Tigray.

    cMAMI: Stronger evidence towards future scale up via a cluster RCT in Ethiopia Key stakeholder meeting, Harar, Ethiopia Monday,14th October, 2019 Internal Meeting Report Thanks to the Eleanor Crook Foundation for funding this consultation as part of the MAMI RISE research project. Documentation of the meeting proceedings was supported by Nahom Abate (GOAL Ethiopia). Recommended citation: Stronger evidence towards future scale up via a cluster RCT in Ethiopia. Key stakeholder meeting, Harar, Ethiopia. 14th October, 2019. Internal Meeting Report. 1 Summary A one-day meeting of key stakeholders in the upcoming research on community management of at-risk mothers and infants under six months (cMAMI) in Ethiopia was held Harar on October 14th, 2019 co-hosted by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), Jimma University, GOAL, and the Emergency Nutrition Network (ENN). A series of presentations on the MAMI approach, the proposed research, the policy environment and the Ethiopian context set the scene for working groups and plenary discussion throughout the day. Participants identified barriers and opportunities related to the research implementation in Ethiopia and key considerations for the formative research phase. 1. Overview MAMI vision Every infant aged <6month, at every healthcare/community-level contact point, is nutritionally assessed and appropriately supported to survive and thrive. In 2010, the ENN produced the MAMI Project Report highlighting a significant global burden of undernutrition in infants under six months of age, gaps in policy guidance, inconsistent and inadequate case management, and poorer programme outcomes than for older children1. This catalysed an informal collaboration amongst concerned programmers, policy makers and researchers to address these challenges.

  • Prioritization of Shelter/NFI Needs
    Prioritization of Shelter/NFI needs Date: 31st May 2018 Shelter and NFI Needs As of 18 May 2018, the overall number of displaced people is 345,000 households. This figure is based on DTM round 10, partner’s assessments, government requests, as well as the total of HH supported since July 2017. The S/NFI updated its prioritisation in early May and SNFI Cluster partners agreed on several criteria to guide prioritisation which include: - 1) type of emergency, 2) duration of displacement, and 3) sub-standard shelter conditions including IDPS hosted in collective centres and open-air sites and 4) % of vulnerable HH at IDP sites. Thresholds for the criteria were also agreed and in the subsequent analysis the cluster identified 193 IDP hosting woredas mostly in Oromia and Somali regions, as well as Tigray, Gambella and Addis Ababa municipality. A total of 261,830 HH are in need of urgent shelter and NFI assistance. At present the Cluster has a total of 57,000 kits in stocks and pipeline. The Cluster requires urgent funding to address the needs of 204,830 HHs that are living in desperate displacement conditions across the country. This caseload is predicted to increase as the flooding continues in the coming months. Shelter and NFI Priority Activities In terms of priority activities, the SNFI Cluster is in need of ES/NFI support for 140,259 HH displaced mainly due to flood and conflict under Pillar 2, primarily in Oromia and Somali Regions. In addition, the Shelter and NFI Cluster requires immediate funding for recovery activities to support 14,000 HH (8,000 rebuild and 6,000 repair) with transitional shelter support and shelter repair activities under Pillar 3.
