The mission of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) is to Coordinate the global emergency response to save lives and protect people in humanitarian crises. We advocate for effective and principled humanitarian action by all, for all. www.unocha.org/ethiopia Access Situation Report August – September 2019 | 2 SITUATION OVERVIEW Afar region The conflict between Afar and Issa Somali communities remains unabated, with sporadic clashes in contested border areas over the use of land by pastoralists from both sides hindering political efforts and aid operations. Since June, more than 30,000 people have been displaced and reside with host communities in seven woredas in Afar region, no emergency response has been provided. Early August, at the time when high-level Oromo and Somali officials engaged in peace discus- sions in Jijiga, fresh clashes were reported in Allale and Madane, Afdem woredas (Sitti zone). Skirmishes erupted again at the end of September, though this time the situation was quickly brought under control by security forces, limiting further humanitarian impact and avoiding the blockage of the Semera - Addis road. In September, near 3,300 people were affected by floods in Aysaita zone 1 and Gewane woreda zone 3. Cumulatively, some 35,800 people have been affected by floods since June in the woredas of Dubti, Teru, Megale, Gelaalo, Dullessa, Awash Fentale, Aysaita, Gewane, and Semera Logyia city administration in Afar. NDRMC and few partners provided some emer- gency ES/NFIs and WASH items. In addition, flooding impacted partners’ movements in Afar zones 4 and 5 and in Gablalu and Afdem woredas (Sitti).

[20] "In southern Wello, there are still a few areas where indigenous trees survive in pockets of remaining forests. -- A highlight of our trip was a visit to Anabe, one of the few forests of Podocarpus, locally known as Zegba, remaining in southern Wello. -- Professor Bahru notes that Anabe was 'discovered' relatively recently, in 1978, when a forester was looking for a nursery site. In imperial days the area fell under the category of balabbat land before it was converted into a madbet of the Crown Prince. After its 'discovery' it was declared a protected forest. Anabe is some 30 kms to the west of the town of Gerba, which is on the Kombolcha-Bati road. Until recently the rough road from Gerba was completed only up to the market town of Adame, from which it took three hours' walk to the forest. A road built by local people -- with European Union funding now makes the forest accessible in a four-wheel drive vehicle.

  • Army Worm Infestation in SNNP and Oromia Regions As of 24 May
    Army worm infestation in SNNP and Oromia Regions As of 24 May, some 8,368 hectares of belg cropland was reportedly destroyed by army worms in Wolayita zone of SNNPR - an area that suffered from late onset of the 2013 belg rains and subsequent heavy rains that damaged belg crops. The damage caused by the army worms will further reduce the expected harvest this season. Similar incidents were also reported from Boricha, Bona Zuria, Dara, Dale, Hawassa Zuria and Loko Abaya woredas of Sidama zone; Loma and Mareka woredas of Dawro zone (SNNPR), as well as from drought prone areas of East and West Hararge zones of Oromia Region; and quickly spreading to neighbouring areas. In Boricha woreda, for example, more than 655 hectares of belg cropland was destroyed in the course of one week, this is indicative of the speed that damage is being caused. Immediate distribution of spraying containers and chemicals to the farmers is required to prevent further loss of belg crops. For more information, contact: [email protected] Health Update The number of meningitis cases has gradually declined since the outbreak was declared in January. To date, 1,371 cases were reported from 24 woredas in five zones of SNNP and Oromia Regions. The Government, with support from health partners, is conducting a reactive vaccination in the affected areas, with 1, 678,220 people vaccinated so far. Next week, the number of people vaccinated during the Addis Ababa City Administration meningitis vaccination campaign, conducted from 20 to 26 May, will be released. Meanwhile, the number of kebeles reporting cases of Yellow Fever in South Ari, Benatsemay and Selmago woredas of South Omo zone, SNNPR, increased.

Among the many legends, Kaldi, an Abyssinian goatherd, who lived around AD 850 found the origin of coffee. It is vital to the cultural and socio-economic life of Ethiopians and contributes 25%-30% of the country's foreign exchange, half of GDP, 90% of exports, 85% of total employments in the country and part of the culture; about 50 % of the produced coffee is consumed domestically.
