It further investigates the rolesof traditional institutions; the community’s perceptionstowards their traditional administrativesystem and other related socio-cultural events. To achieve this goal primary and secondary data were used. The data were collected through observation, informal and formal interviews, focus group discussions and reviewing available primary and secondary sources. The findings of the present study showed that the Donga coronation rituals have a considerable role in creating and maintaining the social bond among members of the community. Simultaneously; the annual festivals are also practiced with the presence of respected king and considered as part of the earliest traditional forms of communal thanks-giving. Moreover, hierarchical traditional conflict resolution mechanisms, based on customary laws could create peaceful environment, maintain ongoing societal moral structure and further reduce the burdens of the ‘‘modern jury. The traditional social structure serves as a channel of communication within the entire community. It also helps to plan and implement policies, rules and regulations to further mobilize the people towards development endeavors. The values and practices examined in this study further showed that the particular understanding of given times and the cultural effects of the reformation could in fact make significant changes on social consciousness. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My very first gratitude goes to my dad, Ayele Worku; the completion of this thesis would have not been possible without your thoughtful intellectual effort and guidance.

  • Background of the Network
    Background of the Network Although interventions against HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia began after the first case was identified in 1984, the establishment of associations of people living with HIV/AIDS didn't happen until the mid 1990s. The involvement of these associations and some other organizations engaged in the fight against the pandemic to the curtain of stigma and discrimination against PLWHA has showed encouraging results and gradually decreased these and other HIV/AIDS related problems. But much remains to be done before it completely disappears and the rights of these groups of the society are fully respected. Now days a number of PLWHA associations are being established throughout the country and are getting involved in the national efforts of fighting against HIV/AIDS. While these associations are involved in the design and implementation of various programs targeting people infected and affected by the virus their emergence and subsequent mushrooming is giving more voice to the debates surrounding the pandemic and to influence policy and the strategies of the government. Nevertheless, the effectiveness and meaningful contribution of these associations was compromised due to the uncoordinated, inconsistent and sometimes contradictory engagements and initiatives. aware of the situations and the need for coordinated and increased involvement of these associations a total of 25 PLWHA associations (embracing more than 2000 PLWHA members) found in the region have established their network /umbrella office in Awassa, capital of the Region in September 2006 while the number is reached to 71. The Network has legally registered as a nongovernmental organization and has got its license from the SNNPR Bureau of Justice.

Situation Update Soaring food prices and poor rain performance are expected to further affect the food security situation of the urban and rural poor, vulnerable pastoral and agropastoral populations according to WFP. Maize, harricot beans and teff planted using the late belg rains in April and May are performing well in some areas but are wilting in others due to dry spells, whilst in some areas crops have been destroyed by armyworm. Green harvest of maize and some Irish potato harvest is expected beginning in late August/September. WFP noted also that unusual stress associated with the migration of both cattle and people within the Somali Region and some areas of Afar and Oromiya Regions is resulting in increased clan conflict over resources. According to CARE, improved water availability has been recorded in South Gonder and East Harerge zones of Amhara and Oromiya Regions allowing cultivation of late planted crops.

This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Social and Environmental Risk Factors for Trachoma: A Mixed Methods Approach in the Kembata Zone of Southern Ethiopia by Candace Vinke Bachelor of Science, University of Calgary, 2005 Supervisory Committee Dr. Stephen Lonergan, Supervisor (Department of Geography) Dr. Denise Cloutier-Fisher, Departmental Member (Department of Geography) Dr. Eric Roth, Outside Member (Department of Anthropology) iii Dr. Stephen Lonergan, Supervisor (Department of Geography) Dr. Denise Cloutier-Fisher, Departmental Member (Department of Geography) Dr. Eric Roth, Outside Member (Department of Anthropology) Abstract Trachoma is a major public health concern throughout Ethiopia and other parts of the developing world. Control efforts have largely focused on the antibiotic treatment (A) and surgery (S) components of the World Health Organizations (WHO) SAFE strategy. Although S and A efforts have had a positive impact, this approach may not be sustainable. Consequently, this study focuses on the latter two primary prevention components; facial cleanliness (F) and environmental improvement (E). A geographical approach is employed to gain a better understanding of how culture, economics, environment and behaviour are interacting to determine disease risk in the Kembata Zone of Southern Ethiopia.

Received 29 July, 2016; Accepted 25 August, 2016 Micronutrients are important for crop growth, production and their deficiency and toxicity affect crop yield. However, the up dated information about their status and spatial distribution in Ethiopian soils is scarce. Therefore, fertilizer recommendation for crops in the country has until recently focused on nitrogen and phosphorus macronutrients only. But many studies have revealed the deficiency of some micronutrients in soils of different parts of Ethiopia. To narrow this gap, this study was conducted in Kedida Gamela, Kecha Bira and Damboya districts of Kambata Tambaro (KT) Zone, Southern Ethiopia, through assessing and mapping the status and spatial distribution of micronutrients. The micronutrients were extracted by using Mehlich-III multi-nutrient extraction method and their concentrations were measured by using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES). The fertility maps and predication were prepared by co-Kriging method using Arc map 10.0 tools and the status of Melich-III extractable iron (Fe), Zinc (Zn), boron (B), copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) were indicated on the map.

The study aimed to assess the prevalence of FGM practice in the study area. A community based cross-sectional study design was applied. Both quantitative and qualitative study methods are employed. A total of 278 women at reproductive age (15-49) are sampled for the study from six randomly selected kebeles of Angacha woreda. The survey data was analyzed by SPSS software version 20. Descriptive statistics such as mean, percentage, and frequency are used for analyzing data. Qualitative data is analyzed thematically and the result is presented in narration. From study participants, 92.4% are practiced FGM, and 77.7% of are undergone themselves. The practice is undergone by health professionals at night time. Traditions, reproductive and community roles, norms, and values regarding gender equality are the major push factors for the continuation of the FGM. Mothers are the primary supporters of the practice in the family. Based on the findings, it was concluded that, the prevalence of FGM is high in the study area. Attitudinal transformation is needed through a cooperative and collaborative campaign of all stakeholders in the entire community by arranging trainings, workshops, and media to minimize the prevalence of female genital mutilation.
