Box: 1020, Jigjiga, Ethiopia Abstract: Suspected measles outbreak was notified from Degahbour hospital to the Emergency Management Team at the Regional Health Bureau. A team of experts was dispatched to the site with the objectives of confirming the existence of the outbreak, initiate measures and formulate recommendations based on the results of present outbreak investigation. We conducted descriptive cross sectional study from February to March 2016. We reviewed medical records of suspected cases; we interviewed the Health care workers, visited affected household and interviewed parents and guardians of cases. We used line list for describing measles cases interms of time, place and person. We collected five blood samples from patients for Lab confirmation. We entered and analyzed using Epi-Info7 version 7.1.0.6. During the investigation period, 406 measles cases with 5 deaths were reported with overall Attack Rate (AR) and Case Fatality Rate (CFR) was (28.2/10, 000 population, 1.2%) respectively. High AR (28.6/10000population) was reported from male. The CFR difference was not statistically significant (P value=0.66) by sex. High AR (127/10000population) was reported from age group < 1 years. When we compared AR by those < 5 years and >5 years, there was statistically significant difference (P-value= 0.00).

    ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook October 2016 to May 2017 Crisis (IPC Phase 3) expected in parts of Oromia, SNNPR, and southern pastoral areas KEY MESSAGES Current food security outcomes, October 2016 Meher harvests starting in October are significantly reducing the number of people in Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or worse. However, poor Kiremt rainfall in eastern and central Oromia and SNNPR, low livestock holdings in pastoral southern Afar and Shinile, and expected poor performance of October to December rainfall in southern pastoral areas are likely to lead to above-average food assistance needs in 2016/17. Below-average Kiremt rainfall and dry spells in the lowlands of central and eastern Oromia and the Rift Valley in SNNPR is likely to lead to below-average Meher harvests. The expected below-average production, coupled with low income from agricultural labor, is likely to drive poor households into Crisis (IPC Phase 3) between February to May 2017 in these areas.

  • Thematic Evaluation of MYHF in Ethiopia Formative Report
    Thematic evaluation of MYHF in Ethiopia Formative report Formative Evaluation Report, July 2015 1 About the project The research project “Building resilience and managing risk in fragile and conflict- affected states: A thematic evaluation of DFID’s multi-year approaches to humanitarian action in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Sudan and Pakistan” is funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID) as part of its Humanitarian Innovation and Evidence Programme (HIEP), and runs from April 2014 to December 2017. HIEP is a joint initiative between DFID's policy, operations and research departments to improve the quality, quantity and use of evidence in humanitarian programming. It is running over 20 long-term research projects between 2012 and 2018, exploring a wide range of issues from how to manage risk in humanitarian work, to building government capacity in disaster-risk management, to improving the quality of evaluations in humanitarian contexts. Executive summary This formative report is the first in a number of outputs from the thematic evaluation into Multiyear Humanitarian Funding (MYHF). It sets out preliminary findings following initial rounds of enquiry. This provides a summary of work to date, and is intended to be of principal benefit to the Department for Foreign and International Development (DFID) and its partners in ongoing programme design work. For the evaluation team it is a useful exercise in consolidating work done to date and helping refine the thinking on next steps. The thematic evaluation was initially commissioned in early 2014 and, following a six month inception period, started work properly in November that year.
