  • Risk Factors and Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Human Rabies Exposure in Northwestern Tigray, Ethiopia
    Gebru G, et al. Risk Factors and Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Human Rabies Exposure in Northwestern Tigray, Ethiopia. Annals of Global Health. 2019; 85(1): 119, 1–12. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/aogh.2518 ORIGINAL RESEARCH Risk Factors and Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Human Rabies Exposure in Northwestern Tigray, Ethiopia Gebreyohans Gebru*, Gebremedhin Romha†, Abrha Asefa‡, Haftom Hadush§ and Muluberhan Biedemariam‖ Background: Rabies is a neglected tropical disease, which is economically important with great public health concerns in developing countries including Ethiopia. Epidemiological information can play an important role in the control and prevention of rabies, though little is known about the status of the disease in many settings of Ethiopia. The present study aimed to investigate the risk factors and spatio-temporal patterns of human rabies exposure in Northwestern Tigray, Ethiopia. Methods: A prospective study was conducted from 01 January 2016 to 31 December 2016 (lapsed for one year) at Suhul general hospital, Northern Ethiopia. Data of human rabies exposure cases were collected using a pretested questionnaire that was prepared for individuals dog bite victims. Moreover, GPS coordinate of each exposure site was collected for spatio-temporal analysis using hand-held Garmin 64 GPS apparatus. Later, cluster of human rabies exposures were identified using Getis-Ord *Gi statistics. Results: In total, 368 human rabies exposure cases were collected during the study year. Age group of 5 to 14 years old were highly exposed (43.2%; 95% CI, 38.2–48.3). Greater number of human rabies exposures was registered in males (63%; 95% CI, 58.0–67.8) than females (37%; 95% CI, 32.1–42.0).

This General Management Plan (GMP) for the KSNP lays out a vision for the development and management of the park over the next 10 years, and outlines specific actions required to fulfil this vision over the next 3 years. This GMP was developed using a participatory process, building on previously summarised background in- formation and newly gathered data by the planning team. This was followed by analysis of prob- lems and issues carried out through stakeholder workshops and consultations community and re- gional government authorities. Going through such process has helped to ensure that the park’s stakeholders were given an appropriate opportunity to contribute to the issues and problems ad- dressed in the GMP and to suggest solutions to these issues. In general, the planning process adopt- ed involved a variety of approaches to participation.

  • ETHIOPIA - TIGRAY REGION HUMANITARIAN UPDATE Situation in Tigray (1 July 2021) Last Updated: 2 Jul 2021
    ETHIOPIA - TIGRAY REGION HUMANITARIAN UPDATE Situation in Tigray (1 July 2021) Last updated: 2 Jul 2021 FLASH UPDATE (2 Jul 2021) Situation in Tigray (1 July 2021) The political dynamics have changed dramatically in Ethiopia's Tigray Region following the unilateral ceasefire declaration by the Ethiopian Government on 28 June 2021. Reportedly, the Tigray Defense Forces (TDF) have taken control over most parts of Tigray following the withdrawal of the Ethiopian and Eritrean defense forces from the capital, Mekelle, and other parts of the region, while Western Tigray remains under the control of the Amhara Region. The consequences of the unfolding situation on humanitarian operations in Tigray remain fluid. The breakdown of essential services such as the blackout of electricity, telecommunications, and internet throughout Tigray region will only exacerbate the already dire humanitarian situation. Reported shortages of cash and fuel in the region can compromise the duty of care of aid workers on the ground. Despite the dynamic and uncertain situation, partners report that the security situation in Tigray has been generally calm over the past few days, with limited humanitarian activities being implemented around Mekelle and Shire. Key developments On 28 June, the Federal Government agreed to the request from the Interim Regional Administration in Tigray for a "unilateral ceasefire, until the farming season ends." Subsequently, Ethiopia National Defense Forces (ENDF) withdrew from Mekelle and other main towns in the region, including Shire, Axum, Adwa, and Adigrat. Currently, former Tigray Defense Forces (TDF) are in control of the main cities and roads in Tigray. There were no reports of fighting in Mekelle and other towns.

ABUSING SELF-DETERMINATION AND DEMOCRACY: How THE TPLF Is LOOTING ETHIOPIA Matthew J. McCrackent Introduction Ethiopia is a nation facing a silent crisis. After Eritrean and Tigrayan rebels overthrew Ethiopia's socialist-military government in 1991, members of the Tigray People's Liberation Front (or "TPLF") reorganized into a new political party known as the Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front (or "EPRDF") and assumed control of Ethiopia's central government.' After 100 years of domination by the Amhara tribe, Ethiopia's new government, led by Prime Minister Meles Zenawi, claimed to usher in a new era of political openness.2 A former Secretary General of the TPLF, Zenawi invited representatives from Ethiopia's many regional and cultural minorities to participate in the drafting of Ethiopia's Transitional Charter and new Constitution.3 This so-called "Revolutionary Era" produced many significant political changes.
