The very purpose of such partnership is to unleash and enhance the systemic, institutional, operational capacities of partner CBOs in order that they address the challenges of their respective communities. As part of the capacity development efforts, JeCCDO encourages partner CBOs to join their hands and work together through CBOs’ Networking Forum in their respective operational area. Accordingly, six CBOs’ Networking Forum have so far been established in Bahir Dar, Bishoftu, Debre Birhan, Dire Dawa, Hawassa and Addis Ababa Cities. CBOs in other areas like Guraghe and Jimma are also working collaboratively in their respective localities. Working through such Networking Forum has enabled partner CBOs to share their experiences and also bring more CBOs to the development front. This has in turn increased their influencing role over local governance and development endeavors. JeCCDO has proved that partnership with CBOs is key to ensure community ownership in local development endeavours, and thereby sustainability of development interventions. Thus far, JeCCDO has partnered with 143 CBOs operating in 22 towns across Oromia, Amhara, SNNPR, Ethiopia Somali, and Addis Ababa and Dire Dawa City Administrations. Through these partner CBOs, JeCCDO reaches about 850,000 beneficiaries annually. With the aim of sustaining service delivery by partner CBOs and further promoting the approach at a wider scale, JeCCDO annually organizes CBOs’ Good Practice Day. Apart from sharing their good experiences, such event helps to create spirit of collaboration and cohesion among partner CBOs and with different stakeholders. This year, the third CBOs’ Good Practice Day was colourfully celebrated with the motto ‘‘ Strengthening CBOs for Sustainable Local Development’’ in Bishoftu Town of Oromia Region on 29th June 2017. Participants of the event were representatives of partner CBOs , regional and local governments, CSOs, the donor community and members of the wider public. A total of 300 (90 Female) people drawn from these institutions took part in the event. The Day was marked with exhibition, lesson sharing programme by two selected CBOs , recognition and award ceremony for well performing CBOs. Besides, partners’ witness on the work of JeCCDO was heard, and JeCCDO’s sustainable development model which is in the making was presented and discussed by participants. This publication, thus, presents the accounts of these key undertakings of the Day. 4 Community Based Organisations: Key Drivers of Sustainable Development Proceedings of the 3rd Annual CBOs’ Good Practice Day- 29 June 2017, Bishoftu Welcoming Remarks: Mrs Me’aza Kitaw- Chairperson of JeCCDO Board of Directors ‘’…… CBOs like ‘Iddirs’ are age old community structures which have wider acceptance by their constituents and have great influence over local development endeavours. They have also untapped potential to mobilize resources from local sources...…. JeCCDO started working in partnership with CBOs since 2003. Such partnership has continued to garner more CBOs every year and the number of CBOs partnered with JeCCDO have now reached 143. Such partnership has been proved to be key to enhance local development. As the CBOs are largely led by volunteers, the approach has also promoted community participation and use of accumulated expertise of senior citizens…... Owing to this, CBOs have increasingly assumed developmental roles. This has been great input to the government’s initiative on sustainable development as well. The purpose of today’s event is thus to publicize the good practice of these partner CBOs, and recognize their development contribution.……………’’ Mrs Me’aza Kitaw Chairperson of JeCCDO Board of Directors Opening Remarks: Ato Gezahegn Getachew- Representative of Bishoftu Town Administration ‘‘... JeCCDO has been the key development partner of Bishoftu City Administration for decades. In these times, we’ve witnessed that its interventions have had meaningful impact in fighting poverty in the City. JeCCDO’s partnership with CBOs has specially proved to be key to ensure community participation in the development process in the City. Besides, this state of the art Training Center where we are now celebrating the event has been contributing much to the City’s effort of becoming centre of conference tourism in the Country….’’ Hence, the City Administration greatly values the development contribution of JeCCDO and takes it as an exemplary CSO in the City. I hope JeCCDO will continue supporting the City’s development; and I would also like to reiterate that the City Administration will continue supporting the development work of JeCCDO in the City...…….’’ Ato Gezahegn Getachew- Representative of Bishoftu Town Administration 5 Community Based Organisations: Key Drivers

Tourism © Ethiopian www.ethiopia.travel Text: Philip Briggs; Photography: David Kirkland, Aziz Ahmed, Ludwig Siege, Antonio Fiorente Antonio Kirkland, David Siege, Briggs; Photography: Philip Aziz Ludwig Ahmed, Text: The East - Danakil, Harar and Bale Mountains • The scorching Danakil, where salt-bearing camel caravans traipse mirage-like across blinding-white salt-flats, swept by a gale known as the Gara, or Fire Wind. • Volatile Erta Ale, its volcanic caldera cradling a bubbling cauldron of molten black lava and eruptive glowing fountains of red-hot magma. • The labyrinthine alleys of Harar Jugol, an ancient walled citadel with a wealth of Islamic mosques and shrines, bustling markets overhung with aromatic spices and cafes brewing freshly-roasted coffee plucked from the surrounding hills. • The Afro-Alpine moorland of the Sanetti Plateau in Bale Mountains, where handsome red Ethiopian wolves - the world’s most endangered canids - trot jauntily through the pastel-shaded heather. • The cool damp Harenna Forest in Bale Mountains, a vast tract of gnarled tree heathers, towering bamboo clumps and a canopy of evergreen foliage. • A rapier-horned oryx antelope cantering across wide open plains of Awash National Park, a group of colourfully dressed sellers in Dire Dawa open-air market, the immense limestone caverns of Sof Omar. This is Eastern Ethiopia. A land of astonishing geographic extremes, where the austere lavascapes and salt-flats of the northern Rift Valley, which plunges to 116m below sea level in the Danakil, contrast with the misty peaks of the Bale Mountains, which rise over 4,300m a short distance further south.

  • Gone in 6 Minutes: an Ethiopian Airlines Jet's Final Journey 5 April 2019, by David Koenig
    Gone in 6 minutes: an Ethiopian Airlines jet's final journey 5 April 2019, by David Koenig Ethiopian authorities issued a preliminary report Thursday on the March 10 crash that killed 157 people. They found that a malfunctioning sensor sent faulty data to the Boeing 737 Max 8's anti-stall system and triggered a chain of events that ended in a crash so violent it reduced the plane to shards and pieces. The pilots' struggle, and the tragic ending, mirrored an Oct. 29 crash of a Lion Air Max 8 off the coast of Indonesia, which killed 189 people. The anti-stall system, called MCAS, automatically lowers the plane's nose under some circumstances to prevent an aerodynamic stall. Boeing acknowledged that a sensor in the Ethiopian Airlines jet malfunctioned, triggering MCAS when it was not needed. The company repeated that it is In this Monday, March 11, 2019 file photo, rescuers work working on a software upgrade to fix the problem in at the scene of an Ethiopian Airlines flight crash near its best-selling plane.

  • Beef and Feed Value Chain Study in Adama District
    Beef and feed value chain analysis in Adama District, Ethiopia Addisu A.1, Solomon M.1, Getachew L. 2, Solomon A.1, Fantahun D.1, Duncan, A.J.3 and Thorpe, W.3 1 Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research, Debre Zeit Agricultural Research Center, Ethiopia 2 ILRI value chain consultant 3 International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Addis Ababa, Ethiopia October 2012 ICARDA i Abstract This paper offers insights on the analysis of beef and feed value chains, assesses the determinants of supply, identifies major constraints and opportunities for the beef and feed value chains, tests tools prepared for the analysis of beef value chains and provides feedback for further improvement. This report is an output of a six-month project ‘Fodder and feed in livestock value chains in Ethiopia - trends and prospects ’ commissioned by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research. The project was led by ILRI together with the Ethiopian Institute for Agricultural Research, the Amhara Regional Agricultural Research Institute and the International Center for Research in the Dry Areas. Introduction Background Livestock production is an integral part of Ethiopia’s agricultural sector and plays a vital role in the national economy. At present, livestock contributes about 20% of the GDP, supporting the livelihoods of 70 % of the population and generating about 11% of annual export earnings (SPS- LMM, 2010). As the country has a large livestock population, which ranks first in Africa and tenth in the world, it has much to gain from the growing global markets for livestock products (SPS-LMM, 2010). Feed is a critical constraint to intensification of livestock production in Ethiopia.

This study was carried out to estimate the prev- alence and determine the antimicrobial susceptibility of E. coli O157 isolated from bovine carcasses and cecal contents at one abattoir in Jimma. A total of 300 samples from bovine carcass swabs(n=150) and cecal contents(n=150) were examined to identify E. coli O157 by ISO 17604:2005 method and by using Dry spot E. coli O157 latex test kit. Susceptibility to panels of 9 antimicrobial agents for all 25 E. coli O157 isolates was examined The overall prevalence of E. coli O157 from bovine carcass swabs and cecal contents were 9.3% and 7.3%, respectively. All E. coli O157 isolates were susceptible to chloramphenicol, cef- triaxone, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, tetracycline and 96% of the isolates were susceptible to amoxacillin-clavulanic acid. Twenty-eight, 24% and 20% of the isolates were resistant to amikacin, streptomycin and cephalothin respec- tively.

Date: July 2018 Team Leader: C. EZEDINMA, Principal Agro Economist AHFR2 Preparation Team E&S Team Members: E.B. KAHUBIRE, Social Development Officer, RDGE4 /SNSC 1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FDRE) committed to a five-year undertaking, as part of the first Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP I) to build the foundation to launch the Country from a predominantly agrarian economy into industrialization. Among the sectors to which the second Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP II) gives emphasis is manufacturing and industrialization to provide the basis for economic structural change; and a central element in this strategy for transforming the industry sector is development and expansion of industrial parks and villages around the country. 1.2. The development of Integrated Agro Industrial Parks (IAIPs) and accompanying Rural Transformation Centres (RTCs) forms part of the government-run Industrial Parks Development Corporations (IPDC) strategy to make Ethiopia’s agricultural sector globally competitive. The concept is driven by a holistic approach to develop integrated Agro Commodity Procurement Zones (ACPZs) and IAIPs with state of-the-art infrastructure with backward and forward linkages based on the Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development model. The concept of IAIPs is to integrate various value chain components via the cluster approach. Associated RTCs are to act as collection points for fresh farm feed and agricultural produce to be transported to the IAIPs where the processing, management, and distributing (including export) activities are to take place.

  • Molecular Determination of Antimicrobial Resistance In
    Messele et al. Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob (2017) 16:55 DOI 10.1186/s12941-017-0233-x Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials RESEARCH Open Access Molecular determination of antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli isolated from raw meat in Addis Ababa and Bishoftu, Ethiopia Yohannes Equar Messele1*, Reta Duguma Abdi2,3, Shimels Tikuye Yalew1, Desiye Tesfaye Tegegne1, Bezina Arega Emeru1 and Gebremeskel Mamu Werid1 Abstract Background: Consumption of meat contaminated by E. coli causes a serious illness and even death to afected individuals. Recently the emerging of antibiotic resistant foodborne E. coli poses serious public health risks worldwide. However, little is known about the antibiotic resistance profle of E. coli in Ethiopia. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) status of E. coli isolated from diferent type of meat. Methods: Overall 292 samples were collected from December 2015 to April 2016 from slaughterhouses to deter- mine the prevalence and AMR of E. coli isolated from raw beef, mutton, chevon and chicken meat from Addis Ababa and Bishoftu, Ethiopia. The isolates were screened for AMR against commonly used antibiotics circulating in the Ethiopian market. Both phenotypic and genotypic approach were employed for AMR detection using disc difusion test and PCR respectively. Results: The prevalence of E. coli was 63 (21.6%), indicating one sample in every fve samples harbors E. coli. Among these, the highest E. coli isolates was observed in chicken meat samples (37.0%; 27), followed by mutton (23.3%; 17), chevon (20.6%; 15) and beef (5.5%; 4). Results of disk difusion test on the 63 isolates showed that only 4.8% of them were not resistance to all antimicrobials tested.
