    Factsheet: Dire Dawa, Ethiopia / MobiliseYourCity Global Monitor 2021 69 Dire Dawa, Ethiopia Partner city Status of the project: ongoing technical assistance Basic Information Urban area: 70 km2 Population: 320,000 | Growth rate: 4% GDP per capita: USD 855.8 (2019) Modal Share Informal public transport: 42% Walking: 46% Private cars: 4% Private motorbikes or 2-wheelers: 1% Other: 8% National GHG emissions per capita: 1.60 (tCO2eq) Exposure to climate change: HIGH Region capital city Context Located on a large flat plain between Addis Ababa and Djiouti, Dire Dawa is meant to become the main economical hub of eastern Ethiopia. Nowadays, it presents a high density of commercial activities, including markets that generate important flows of goods and people at different scale, putting some pressure over roads and public spaces. In the midterm, national freight transit shall boom, along with the development of the national road network and the integration of the new railway into the logistic system. 477 000 trips are made daily in Dire Dawa. Mobility patterns reveal a relatively high propension to move (1.8 daily trips per inhabitants). Dire Dawa is located on a secondary national/international freight corridor between Addis Abeba and Djibouti, meaning that a signifcant volume of trucks transits through the city. Dire Dawa currently does not have any transport master plan. Two railway lines currently serve Dire Dawa. The century old Ethio-Djiboutian railway is now nearly disused and only keeps one or two regional services between Dire Dawa and Dewele at the Djibutian border. The new Chinese built railway line between Addis Abeba and Djibouti is operating since 2018 and is increasing both passenger and freight services with a planned dry port near the new station.

A total of 384 samples were collected from different kebeles near Jimma. Out of the total sampled 164 (42.71%) were positive for Fasciolosis. According to coprological examination, variation in prevalence among the localities was not statistically significant (p>0.05). The result also revealed no statistically significant difference between sexes and ages (p>0.05). Infection rate in poor body condition animals (74.80%) was significantly higher (p<0.05) than good body condition animals (12.20%) and this indicates that the importance of Fasciolosis in causing weight loss and weakness, a characteristic of sign of chronic Fasciolosis. Results obtained in this area were discussed in comparisons with the finding of other research works.

It builds on existing research and the inputs of UNICEF Ethiopia sections and partners. It follows the structure of the Template Outline for Regional Situation Analyses. 1. Most of the data included in this briefing note comes from the Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey (EDHS), Household Consumption and Expenditure Survey (HCES), Education Statistics Annual Abstract (ESAA) and Welfare Monitoring Survey (WMS) so that a valid comparison can be made with the other regions of Ethiopia. Situation Analysis of Children and Women: Addis Ababa Region 4 1 THE DEVELOPMENT CONTEXT Dire Dawa Administration is in the east of Ethiopia, bordering the regions of Oromia and Somali. The Dire Dawa Administrative Council consists of the city of Dire Dawa and the surrounding rural areas. In total, almost 0.5 per cent of the Ethiopian population lives in the Dire Dawa Administration, 2 and 10 per cent of its population are children under 5 years.3 According to 2019 population projections, 313,000 people (63 per cent) live in the City of Dire Dawa and 180,000 people (37 per cent) live in the rural areas.4 Dire Dawa city is one of the four ‘medium’ cities in Ethiopia ─ Dire Dawa, Adama, Mekele and Gondor - meaning it has between 300,000 and 500,000 inhabitants. The total fertility rate is 3.1 for women of reproductive age (15-49 years).5 This rate has declined from 3.4 in 2011 and 3.6 in 2005.6 The Dire Dawa Administrative Council consists of the city of Dire Dawa and the surrounding rural areas.

BRE and Maintains are funded with UK aid from the UK government; however, the views expressed in this study do not necessarily reflect the UK government’s official policies. About the BRE programme BRE is a three-year (2019–2022) technical assistance programme co-funded by FCDO and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). It is being implemented by Oxford Policy Management (OPM) and operates under a memorandum of understanding that was signed by the Ethiopian Ministry of Finance and FCDO in June 2019. The main aim of BRE is to support Ethiopia’s drive towards becoming a middle-income country by strengthening nationally owned and led systems that better anticipate and respond to recurrent shocks and resulting acute needs. The BRE vision is in line with the National Disaster Risk Management Policy and will support the Government of Ethiopia to lead and deliver an effective, gradually self-financed, and accountable response to climate and humanitarian shocks.

Emphasis is given on the probability, area and service coverage of informality, and the effect of informal operators on the formal transport industry. The study shows that the manifestation of informality on the long distance bus market is relatively insignificant (about 13%) compared with small and mid-scale buses. The sector also serves about 15 major towns such as Mekele, Dire Dawa, Shashemene, Wolita Soddo, Jimma, Bahir Dar and Gonder Towns. The most relevant effects of informal operators on formal industry and long distance bus in particular are the accelerated increase in the rate of accidents, lack of tax payments and driving over the distance limit. Informality also leads the legal operators into illegality. Thus, one can infer that the accelerating rate of informality becomes a threat for the formal sector operators in general and the long distance bus market in particular, in the nation and developing countries. Key words: informality, formal operator, area coverage, service coverage, urban transportation.

  • Market Analysis Note #2
    MARKET ANALYSIS NOTE #2 Grain Market Research Project Ministry of Economic Development and Cooperation January 1997 THE RESPONSE OF ETHIOPIAN CEREAL MARKETS TO LIBERALIZATION1 This Note assesses how liberalization of Ethiopia’s grain marketing system in March 1990 has affected the level and volatility of wholesale prices and price spreads between major regional cereal markets. The paper also identifies issues and problems needing attention to guide future policy decisions with the aim of reducing marketing costs in the food system and thereby promoting the welfare of grain producers and consumers in Ethiopia. The study focuses on three cereals (maize, white teff, and white wheat) and eight markets: Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, Mekele, Bako, Shashemene, Jimma, Bahir Dar, and Hosaenna. Markets are chosen based on the availability of continuous time series price data covering at least three years before and after market liberalization.2 The major findings of the report are as follows: & Cereal price spreads (the difference in wholesale prices) for major regional markets have generally declined since liberalization in 1990. In 24 market pairs covering maize, white teff, and white wheat, average price spreads declined in 23 cases after liberalization (Tables 1 and 2). Prices in the major surplus-producing areas for which data are available have risen by 12% to 48%, while prices in deficit regions have declined by 6% to 36% in eight of nine cases. & The volatility of wholesale cereal prices has declined since liberalization in 11 of 16 cases for which data was available (Table 1). The volatility of cereal price spreads between different markets has also declined since liberalization in 23 of the 24 cases examined (Table 2).

  • An Economic Perspective of the Historic Relationship Between Dire Dawa and Djibouti Since1900s
    International Journal of Sciences: Basic and Applied Research (IJSBAR) ISSN 2307-4531 (Print & Online) http://gssrr.org/index.php?journal=JournalOfBasicAndApplied --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An Economic Perspective of the Historic Relationship between Dire Dawa and Djibouti since1900s Mesafint Tarekegn Yalewa*, Zenebech Admasu Gebreamilackb a,bDire Dawa University, Dire Dawa, Post+251-1362, Ethiopia aEmail: [email protected] bEmail: [email protected] Abstract The study examined the relationship between Dire Dawa and Djibouti since 1900s in an economic perspective. It mainly analyzed the bases of the economic relations of the two. Both primary and secondary data were deployed to solicit viable information. Qualitative data analyses are articulated to furnish the details of the relations. The findings indicate that the Franco-Ethiopia railway was the bases of the relation of Dire Dawa and Djibouti; and both Dire Dawa and Djibouti were the creation of the Franco-Ethiopia railway. Djibouti serves as an as entry port of international trade. It relies on importing food and non-food items from Dire Dawa; and Djibouti sales the port service to land locked Ethiopia where Dire Dawa is proximate to the port. Furthermore, Dire Dawa and Djibouti are not only neighbors but they are also friends and families as they share similar language, religion, lifestyle, and clan interactions. For the mutual beneficiary of trade, considerate price adjustment should be made where Ethiopian farmers and exporters could benefit. Besides, collaboration between them should be in place to ban illegal trade in the area. Keywords: Dire Dawa; Djibouti; Economic-Development; History; railway; relationship and trade. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ * Corresponding author. 11 International Journal of Sciences: Basic and Applied Research (IJSBAR)(2016) Volume 30, No 4, pp 11-23 1.
