KNOWLEDGE PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMME Scoping Exercise KNOWLEDGE PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMME Scoping Exercise Report Partnership for Adapting the Kudumbashree Model to Ethiopia By Kudumbashree Submitted to Department for International Development (DFID) IPE Global (P) Ltd. February 2016 MoWCA – Government of Ethiopia and Kudumbashree – Government of Kerala, India Partnership for Adapting the Kudumbashree Model to Ethiopia Supported by IPE Global under the Knowledge Partnership Programme Report Based on Scoping Exercise for Finalization of Intervention Plan 15 November – 03 December 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background Kudumbashree-State Poverty Eradication Mission, Government of Kerala, India in partnership with the Ministry of Women and Children Affairs, Government of Ethiopia, supported by the Knowledge Partnership Programme, conducted a scoping exercise to identify the existing structures and practices and exploring the potential of adapting Kudumbashree model to the context in Ethiopia from 15-26 November 2015. The team visited Federal offices (MoWCA, MoH, MoA, Central Bank, FeMSEDA, AEMFI, and CoSAP) and government functionaries and existing women groups in eight Kabeles across four Woredas in two Regions. The field areas visited are: Oromia Region – West Arsi Zone – Sheshemane and Arsi Negeellee Woredas SNNP Region – Gaurage Zone – Abeshge and Cheha Woredas Observation from the Field Women’ Development Group (WDG) The 1-5 network groups and the WDGs were close knit and coherent groups. They were involved in regular meetings and savings. In Oromia Region, they took loans from their internal savings and engaged in various income generation activities. There was existence of leadership, but rotation of leadership was not evident. They were also involved in social development activities and also had the ability to plan for identifying issues in the community and find solutions to it. The main income generation activities were centred around agriculture and animal husbandry Health The accessibility and availability of primary health services were found to be very effective. The Health Extension Workers (HEWs) were able to mobilize women well for extension services. The 16-health extension packages were disseminated in a structured model with limited transmission loss. There was also good reporting and monitoring practices put in place from the Health Post at the Kabele level up to the Woreda Health Office. The women had good access to the Health Posts and utilized the services well Agriculture The agriculture extension was done well through the network of Development Agents (DAs). All Kabeles had Farmer Training Centres (FTCs) and demonstration sites in the same compound which gave on-ground training to the farmers. There was also concept of model farmers who were used for disseminating good farming practices to the community. Technical inputs and guidance are being provided by the DAs to the farmers Small and Medium Enterprises / Job Creation SME activities at the federal level are managed by Federal Micro and Small Enterprises Development Agency (FeMSDA). It was found that their activities are mainly centred around urban Kabeles. There is provision of entrepreneurial and skill training in from Technical, Vocational, and Educational Training Institute (TVETs). There were One-Stop Service Centres to provide support services to the enterprises. Intervention Proposed Based on the Kudumbashree experience in Kerala and observations from the field, the following interventions are proposed: 1. Strengthening the institutional structure of WDG 2. Strengthening financial inclusion of WDG 3. Strengthening sectoral activities of the WDG 4. Building community based support system for strengthening the institutions, financial inclusion, and lending sectoral support The Proposed Institutional Structure The WDGs presently existing in the Kabele are working as independent groups without much convergence with other groups and the Kabele administration. The extension departments, such as agriculture and health work in parallel with the WDGs. The structure proposed is to federate the individual WDGs at the local habitation (Got) level in the form of Got Federation (GF). These GFs can be further federated at the Kabele level in the form of Women Development Association (WDA). The following is a diagrammatic representation of the same: In SNNP region, a platform called ‘steering committee’ exits which brings together representatives from various departments and the WDG leader. We propose this platform to be enhanced and serve as a major forum for convergence between the WDG and all Kabele administrations. The proposed steering committee will include representatives from Kabele administration, agriculture, health, education, women’ league, WDA, SME / job creation department, MFI / bank to address issues pertaining to WDG and its federations. Financial Inclusion By means of thrift and credit activity within the WDGs and linkages with financial institutions is seen as a core area for strengthening the institution and providing financial support for income-generation activities. This will include activities such as weekly thrift, internal lending, monitoring of repayment etc. Transparency and accountability of this mechanism will be ensured in the form of regular record keeping of financial transactions and periodic auditing of the same. Strengthening Economic Sector Interventions For ensuring economic empowerment of the women, it is essential they engage in economic activities, which can be related to crop production, animal husbandry, agro-processing, non-farm micro-enterprises, wage employment etc. For this purpose, sub-sets of WDGs in the form of Common Interest Groups (CIGs) can be formed based on interest in engaging in specific income generating activity. Further avenues can be explored to link these CIGs into a value chain based on available opportunities. Support Structures To form a robust institutional structure, lend support to the WDGs in activities related to financial inclusion and income generation, it is essential that an enabling environment exists. One of the major impediments in achieving this is absence of a support system to guide, streamline, and handhold the functioning of the WDGs. To plug this gap, it is proposed to form support teams from the community itself from within the Kabele. Three types of support teams are envisaged as under: 1. Kabele Support Team (KST) to support in institution building and financial institution 2. Woreda Audit Team (WAT) to support in auditing of accounts of community institutions and CIGs 3. Livelihood Consultant Group (LCG) for promoting and supporting income generating activities of the WDG members The members of these support teams will be identified from the community itself, preferably experienced and active women from the community. Convergence Required The convergence with various government functionaries can be envisaged as under: Coordination with banks / MFIs for financial inclusion and income generating activities: o Opening accounts for thrift deposit o Avail credit for groups engaged in IG activities o Financial literacy Coordination with Kabele administration for seeking approval for loans for IG activities, for working premises for CIGs and permissions for organising markets Coordination with DAs / TVETs for technical training to CIGs and support structures Coordination with the steering Committees The concerned sectoral committees in the proposed community institutional structures will coordinate with the concerned sectoral departments Capacitation Required Before capacitating the members and office bearers of the community institutions, the available manuals / training materials will be considered and modifications / enhancements to the same will be done, if required. The capacity building needed for the community institutions will be in the following aspects: Importance of collectives Constitution and relevance of federations Responsibilities of office bearers and members Working with administration and sectoral offices Books to be maintained in the collectives Importance thrift and credit Specific training for office bearers Training of audit committee on protocols and methodology of audit Training of financial inclusion committee on credit delivery mechanism The CIGs engaged in income generating activities would need to be oriented in basic business concepts and technical training depending upon the trade. The support institutions (KST, WDA, and LCG) would have to be imparted relevant subject matter training to be able to support the women in their activities. Pilot Area and Budget The project will be implemented in two Kabeles of Arsi Negeellee and Sheshamene in Oromia and two Kabeles in Abeshuge and Cheha at SNNP region. The first phase of the project is planned for twelve months with a budget outlay of approx. ETB 7 million.

To reach the WHO elimination target by 2020, SAFE (Surgery, Antibiotics, Facial cleanliness, Environmental improvement) strategy has been implemented in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region (SNNPRs), Ethiopia. Scarce evidence exists regarding recent progress in achieving elimination of active trachoma (< 5%) and how well the SAFE strategy implemented. Methodology: A retrospective analysis of programmatic data in the period 2013-2018 was used. All trachoma endemic districts in SNNPR were included. Data collected from the Federal Ministry of Health on trachoma prevalence and SAFE strategy were analyzed. Results: Out of 134 endemic districts, only 35 had their planned impact survey, of which only 11 districts achieved the elimination target.

  • Irrigation Practices As Alternative Means of Supporting Rain-Fed Agriculture: a Case Study of Potato (Solanum Tuberosum L.)
    International Journal of African and Asian Studies www.iiste.org ISSN 2409-6938 An International Peer-reviewed Journal DOI: 10.7176/JAAS Vol.55, 2019 Irrigation Practices as Alternative Means of Supporting Rain-fed Agriculture: A Case Study of Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Solomon Abirdew Yirga Wolkite University Department of Natural Resource Management, Wolkite, Ethiopia Abstract Estimation of evapotranspiration is important for study, design, determining crop water requirement and management of irrigation systems. Also it’s important for determining irrigation water requirement during dry spell and water shortage i.e. when the evapotranspiration is greater than effective rainfall. Based on this, the study was conducted in Cheha district, Gurage Zone with determine crop water requirement of potato. In line to this, ten years climatological recorded data (2008-2017) for Indibir station on (sunshine duration hr /day), maximum and minimum temperature (OC), humidity (%) and wind speed (km/day) at 2 meters height were used to determine ET o using Penman combination method. Secondary data were used to collect important soil parameters required for determination of crop water requirement. Lengths of growing periods, planting date and crop varieties data were received from the validation value of the local farmers and CDAO. Crop coefficients (kc), rooting depth, critical depletion fractions, yield response factors and crop height were obtained from food and agriculture organization of the United Nations guidelines (No. 56). The analyzed data indicated that reference crop evapotranspiration ranged from 2.40 to 4.73 mm with a mean of 3.56mm. The assessment has showed that the water requirement of potato is 63.2, 84.1, 145.8 and 77.2mm during initial, development, mid and late growth stages, respectively.
