We work towards a world in which people can live in dignity and well-being, a world without poverty and injustice. Founded over 60 years ago, the organization envisions a world where people are empowered to build sustainable livelihoods within a society that upholds their rights. Its mission is to strengthen sustainable agricultural systems and realize resilient communities, with a special focus on women and youth. It has been actively engaging in development efforts in over 40 countries in the world. In Ethiopia, ICCO Cooperation involves in development initiatives that support smallholder farmers, poor and marginalized communities, as well as producer organizations in various value chains. ICCO Cooperation is the lead implementer of the RESET Plus Innovation Fund program, and its major activities in this program include . www.icco-cooperation.org 2 innovation4resilience.org FAIR & SUSTAINABLE ETHIOPIA Fair & Sustainable (F&S) Ethiopia is business advisory group working towards achieving inclusive and sustainable development through adopting a social enterprise model.

The Innovation Fund Team was delighted to have welcomed so many interested people. It marked a great beginning of the program and with full energy and excitement, the Innovation Fund Team went ahead with its goal to promote innovations for resilience. With high spirits and great momentum gained from the launching event, various innovators submitted a total of 119 concept notes for ICCO to review. We would have liked to see many of the ideas to be materialized, but we had to make a selection of ideas which we would like to learn more about. This resulted in the shortlisting of 56 concept notes and we asked its writers to further develop their ideas into a full proposal. We were very pleased to have received 56 well- written innovative ideas in April 2020. In that same month, the COVID-19 pandemic spread across the globe and everyone had to find out how to deal with the new realities that came with it. We had to rethink how we could do our office work, how we could visit

Box, 132, Samara, Ethiopia. 1*Email: [email protected] Article Received: 11 December 2019 Article Accepted: 07 February 2020 Article Published: 17 March 2020 ABSTRACT A cross sectional study was carried out from January to July 2014 GC in an attempt to assess and prioritize major camel diseases and identify risk factors in the selected areas of Afar region. Camel owners’ interview and retrospective data analysis were the study methods employed. Relevant collected data were organized, filtered and fed into Microsoft Excel sheet and further analyzed using SPSS statistical tools at P< 0.05. Descriptive statistics was carried to determine frequencies of camel diseases camel. Based on descriptive statistics, the study identified and prioritized 16 camel diseases. Chi-Square analysis was computed to measure the degree of association between disease occurrence and risk factors (age, sex, study area and season). Binomial and multinomial logistic regression analyzes were computed at P<0.05 to measure the significance of associated risk factors on disease occurrence. Statistically significant variations (P<0.05) were observed for sex, seasons, age, and study sites on the occurrence of disease with exception kebeles (P>0.05). Though the study duly has revealed numerous diseases of the camel, the actual existence (laboratory based confirmation) and epidemiology of each disease still demands further investigative studies.

  • Forest Conservation for Communities and Carbon: the Economics of Community Forest Management in The
    Forest conservation for communities and carbon: the economics of community forest management in the Bale Mountains Eco-Region, Ethiopia Charlene Watson May 2013 Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy London School of Economics and Political Science 1 Declaration of work This thesis is the result of my own work except where specifically indicated in the text and acknowledgements. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. Photos are the authors own, as are the figures generated. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. May 2013 2 Abstract Forest conservation based on payments anchored to opportunity costs (OCs) is receiving increasing attention, including for international financial transfers for reduced emissions from deforestation and degradation (REDD+). REDD+ emerged as a payment for environmental service (PES) approach in which conditional payments are made for demonstrable greenhouse gas emission reductions against a business-as-usual baseline. Quantitative assessments of the OCs incurred by forest users of these reductions are lacking. Existing studies are coarse, obscure the heterogeneity of OCs and do not consider how OCs may change over time. An integrated assessment of OCs and carbon benefits under a proposed community forest management (CFM) intervention linked to REDD+ is undertaken in Ethiopia. The OCs of land for the intervention are estimated through household survey and market valuation. Scenarios explore how OCs are likely to change over the intervention given qualitative conservation goals and available land-use change information.
