Moreover,22,080 hectares of meher plantations were damaged impacting 18885 people in 4 districts and landslides on 2061 hectares affected 18785 people. A total of 18 human deaths as well as 135 livestock deaths reported. • 4 roads with total length of 414kms were partially damaged which might cause physical access constraints to 4-5 woredas of the zone. 290K 13 affected Districts affected people SITUATION OVERVIEW East Hararghe zone is recurrently affected by flood impact. Chronically,9 woredas of the zone, namely, Kersa, Melak Belo, Midhega Tola, Bedeno, Gursum, Deder, Babile, Haromaya ad Metta were prone to flooding. The previous flood in May affected 8 of the these woredas were 10,067 HHs (over 60,000 people) in 62 kebeles were affected. During this time, over 2000 hectares of Belg plantations were damaged.

    TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS SUPPLY & INSTALLATION OF PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT OF SANITATION FACILITIES AND RENOVATION OF SCHOOLS FOR IDP RETURNEES IN SASIGA WOREDA, EAST WOLLEGA. JUNE 2021 1 1. GENERAL 1.1 Project Information Title of the Project: Humanitarian Basic Social Services and Sanitation for IDP Returnees; Improvement of Sanitation Facilities and Renovation of Schools for IDP Returnees; Project Assignment: Supply & Installation of Photovoltaic Power System; Beneficiaries: IDP returnees found in the Sasiga woreda of East Welega in Oromia regional state. 400 students and around 20 teachers; Education and Health Ministries and their lower level offices which includes regional bureau, zone departments and woreda offices; Location: Lalisa Wata School -Sasiga Woreda, East Welega zone of Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia Donor: Government of Japan Implementer: UNOPS-ETOH 1.2 Background The Joint Oromia and Benishangul Gumuz regional states proposal submitted to the UN Durable Solutions Initiative reported that about 13 schools have been destroyed by conflict in Welega zones. Sasiga woreda belongs to one of the woredas in East Welega Zone of Oromia region, which was highly affected by the security problem and has hosted the largest Internally Displaced People (IDP) returnees. Reports from the Oromia region Education Bureau indicated that four primary schools are completely damaged in Sasiga Woreda alone and around 1,000 primary school children are reported to be out of school due to the conflict and lack of school facilities to pursue their education. One of the major challenges faced by the humanitarian support community while trying to resettle the IDPs into their place of origin has been the inadequacy and unavailability of social infrastructure like schools, clinics and sanitation facilities, which were destroyed by the conflict.

The copyright holder for this preprint (which was not certified by peer review) is the author/funder, who has granted bioRxiv a license to display the preprint in perpetuity. It is made available under aCC-BY 4.0 International license. Abstract Ethiopia is a rain fed agriculture country, which is subjected to high climate variability in space and time, leading to hydrological extremes causing loss of life and property more frequently. Droughts are more common and sometime floods are experienced in various parts of the country. Being a tropical country, the inter-annual climate variability in Ethiopia is dominated by ENSO (ElNino and Southern Oscillation). In this study, an attempt has been made to determine the occurrence of droughts and floods on monthly basis, by calculating the monthly SPI (Standardized Precipitation Index) using the available rainfall data during (1975-2005) at selected 26 stations that spread across the country. Based on the monthly SPI values computed, the droughts and floods of different intensities; extreme, severe and dry have been determined for all stations.

During the Italian Occupation, Limmu was the administrative center of the Italians for the Oromo of Western Anger River. Surprisingly, Limmu Oromo during the Italian occupation (1936-41) fought both the Italians and the naftañä settlers. According to genuine sources, during Italian Occupation (1936-1941) the naftañä-gabär system was removed in the study area. Accordingly, the most important event of this period was that the Limmu Oromo were librated from the naftañä rule by their leader, Fitawurari Duguma Jaldeso. Relatively speaking, according to many written materials and oral sources, the Italian administration was better than the former administration system in Limmu. The Italian Occupation was a land mark in the history of the gabärs in the surrounding region in general and that of Limmu in particular. Soon after they stationed at Ayana (the capital of Gidda-Kiramu Woreda), the Italian military station for the areas between the Abay and Angar, Italians successfully abolished the gabär system in the area.

Box, 395, Nekempt, Ethiopia 2Gardega-Jarte, Agricultural Office, P.O. Box, Shambu, Ethiopia Abstract: The aim of the study was to estimate technical efficiency of smallholder farmers in maize production in case of Jardega Jarte districts with specific objectives to estimate the level of technical efficiency and to identify factors affecting technical efficiency in the study area. The study used cross-sectional data and the data were collected from sample representative respondents of 168 randomly selected farm households. Cobb-Douglas production function and the Stochastic Frontier Model were used to identify factors influencing productivity and efficiency. The hypotheses tests confirm that, the adequacy of Cobb-Douglas the appropriateness of using SFA the joint statistical significance of inefficiency effects; the appropriateness of using Half- normal and Exponential distribution for one sided error; and nature of the stochastic production function. The maximum likelihood parameter estimates showed that all input variables have positive and significant effect on production. The estimated Cob Douglas production function revealed that all inputs labor in hour, maize cultivated land, Dap, Urea, Seed, oxen have positive

    Journal of Culture, Society and Development www.iiste.org ISSN 2422-8400 An International Peer-reviewed Journal DOI: 10.7176/JCSD Vol.49, 2019 Complementary Feeding Knowledge of Mother and Nutritional Status of Infant/Young Children (6-23 Months) in Ethiopia Firdisa Birru Goshu * *Lecturer of Economics, Wollega University, College of Business and Economics, P.O.Box 395, Nekemte, Ethiopia Abstract Improving infant and young child feeding practices in children aged 6–23 months is critical to improved nutrition, health, and development. This paper examined the complementary feeding knowledge, attitude and practice of mothers and nutritional status of infants/young children in Jima Ganati District employing the cross sectional survey data conducted among 353 mothers of children aged 6-23 months. The result from the logit regression Education levels of mothers, age of mothers and mother occupation had a significant effect on mothers’ complementary feeding knowledge, attitude and nutritional status of infants/young children. In this study 54.6%, 60.4% and 34.6% of mothers had good knowledge, attitude and practice on complementary feeding respectively. Keywords: complementary feeding; knowledge; attitude; logit model; nutritional status. DOI : 10.7176/JCSD/49-02 Publication date :June 30th 2019 1. Introduction In the manufacturing sector today, human capital is still essential for most factories to carry out a variety of Poor infant feeding practices are known to have adverse consequences on the health and nutritional status of children, which in turn have consequences on the development of the child both physically and mentally (UNICEF, 2006). In Ethiopia almost 70% of the infants were reported to sub-optimally breastfed and 24% of death among infants was attributed to poor and inappropriate breastfeeding practices.
