Total use of funds (of all Government-implemented parts) in the first 2 quarters of EFY04 was reported to be ETB61.9 million or 18 percent of the target for the reporting period. Significant differences exist between various implementing agencies, regions, and woredas, and between project components and activities. While achievement compared with the plan is low, the significant progress made during the past six months is recognized. The plan was unrealistic and a faster implementation would have led to low implementation quality. Fund use is expected to accelerate further over the next months. Overall Implementation Progress is rated Moderately Satisfactory, i.e., satisfactory with moderate shortcomings mainly related to weak planning.

  • ETHIOPIA: MENINGITIS EPIDEMIC 2001 This Final Report Is Intended for Reporting on Emergency Appeals Appeal No
    3 December, ETHIOPIA: MENINGITIS EPIDEMIC 2001 This Final Report is intended for reporting on emergency appeals Appeal No. 12/01 Launched on: March 2001 for 3 months for CHF 1,006,787 DREF Allocated: CHF 200,000 (entirely reimbursed) Beneficiaries: 1.5 million Period covered: March - October 2001; last Operations Update (no. 2) issued on 11 June 2001) “At a glance” Appeal coverage: 91% Related Appeals: 01.13/2001 - 2001 Ethiopia annual Summary/Update: This programme, launched to assist the Ethiopian Red Cross Society (ERCS) to respond to a meningitis outbreak, has achieved the intended objectives. A final payment from ECHO remains pending but is expected shortly, and this will cover the small deficit currently reflected in the attached final financial report. Operational Developments: Ethiopia lies in the African Meningitis Belt which extends from the Red Sea in the east to the Atlantic ocean in the west. It has suffered major epidemics of meningococcal meningitis, a bacteria disease of the central nervous system, in 1981 when there were 50,000 cases and nearly a thousand deaths and in 1989 when there 46,000 cases and 1,700 deaths. Between June and August in 2000, there was an outbreak in Addis Ababa with over 850 cases and 33 deaths. Major epidemics usually occur every 8 to 12 years. This epidemic started in October 2000 in Quarit Woreda in West Gojam in Amhara Region and over a period of several months spread throughout the country. It reached its peak in week 22 of the epidemic (5-11 March 2001) when 724 cases were reported although a decrease in the number of cases week on week was reversed in week 29 (23-29 April 2001) when a lower peak was reached.

    PROTECTING LAND TENURE SECURITY OF WOMEN IN ETHIOPIA: EVIDENCE FROM THE LAND INVESTMENT FOR TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM Workwoha Mekonen, Ziade Hailu, John Leckie, and Gladys Savolainen Land Investment for Transformation Programme (LIFT) (DAI Global) This research paper was created with funding and technical support of the Research Consortium on Women’s Land Rights, an initiative of Resource Equity. The Research Consortium on Women’s Land Rights is a community of learning and practice that works to increase the quantity and strengthen the quality of research on interventions to advance women’s land and resource rights. Among other things, the Consortium commissions new research that promotes innovations in practice and addresses gaps in evidence on what works to improve women’s land rights. Learn more about the Research Consortium on Women’s Land Rights by visiting https://consortium.resourceequity.org/ This paper assesses the effectiveness of a specific land tenure intervention to improve the lives of women, by asking new questions of available project data sets. ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to investigate threats to women’s land rights and explore the effectiveness of land certification interventions using evidence from the Land Investment for Transformation (LIFT) program in Ethiopia. More specifically, the study aims to provide evidence on the extent that LIFT contributed to women’s tenure security. The research used a mixed method approach that integrated quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative information was analyzed from the profiles of more than seven million parcels to understand how the program had incorporated gender interests into the Second Level Land Certification (SLLC) process.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT The arrival of a Protestant mission in Ethiopia during the 1850s marks a turning point in the history of the Falashas. Up until this point, they lived relatively isolated in the country, unaffected and unaware of the existence of world Jewry. Following this period and especially from the beginning of the twentieth century, the attention of certain Jewish individuals and organisations was drawn to the Falashas. This contact initiated a period of external interference which would ultimately transform the Falashas, an Ethiopian phenomenon, into Ethiopian Jews, whose culture, religion and identity became increasingly connected with that of world Jewry. It is the purpose of this thesis to examine the external influences that implemented and continued the process of transformation in Falasha society which culminated in their eventual emigration to Israel.

The United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) has approved US$20 million for drought anticipatory action in Ethiopia. The aim is to mitigate the impact of drought by implementing relevant and timely interventions before a drought situation turns into a devastating food security crisis. This initiative is targeting chronically drought-hit areas in the southern, south-eastern, and north-eastern parts of the country. A number of projects have kicked-off after the agreed triggers in the Anticipatory Action Framework were met, including the forecast of below average spring rains and the level of food insecurity. A number of UN agencies are leading key projects. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) has an intervention targeting 117,000 households in Afar, Somali and SNNP Regions, aiming to ensure adequate food consumption levels and protect the livelihood of vulnerable households.

During the Italian Occupation, Limmu was the administrative center of the Italians for the Oromo of Western Anger River. Surprisingly, Limmu Oromo during the Italian occupation (1936-41) fought both the Italians and the naftañä settlers. According to genuine sources, during Italian Occupation (1936-1941) the naftañä-gabär system was removed in the study area. Accordingly, the most important event of this period was that the Limmu Oromo were librated from the naftañä rule by their leader, Fitawurari Duguma Jaldeso. Relatively speaking, according to many written materials and oral sources, the Italian administration was better than the former administration system in Limmu. The Italian Occupation was a land mark in the history of the gabärs in the surrounding region in general and that of Limmu in particular. Soon after they stationed at Ayana (the capital of Gidda-Kiramu Woreda), the Italian military station for the areas between the Abay and Angar, Italians successfully abolished the gabär system in the area.

  • Using Geospatial Techniques in the Selection of Potential Ecotourism Sites in Menz-Geramidir District, Ethiopia
    Using Geospatial Techniques in the Selection of Potential Ecotourism Sites in Menz-geramidir District, Ethiopia Baykedagn Taye 1 Sintayehu Legesse Gebre2,3* Dessalegn Obsi Gemeda2 Kefelegn Getahun1 Abstract Ecotourism is expressed as when tourists are attracted to a given geographic area (i.e. space) which has its own available natural, environmental, and socioeconomic resources by considering environmental sustainability, local benefit, and promotion. Space is an elementary part of ecotourism activities. Hence, the aim of this study is to identify potential ecotourism sites in Menz-geramidir district mainly by considering the natural features. Using weighting of each factor, three criteria and five-factor maps are identified, namely: landscape (land use land cover map), topography (elevation and slope map) and accessibility (road and river map). Those identified factor maps first ranked based on expert opinion, and then the weight of influence ofeach factor was computed by pair-wise comparison technique which is one of AHP method. The image classification was carried out in ERDAS imagine software using supervised image classification method. The image classification accuracy assessment indicates that the overall accuracy is 84% and the overall Kappa coefficient is 0.80. The final ecotourism potential sites model map was created based on the linear combination of factors with their respective weights in ArcGIS overlay extension and presented using FAO`s suitability scheme into four classes. The result showed that11% is highly suitable and lies to the eastern part of the study area. Generally,major suitable and moderately suitable area accounts for 75.6 % and marginally suitable area for 13.5 % and the not suitable area is 0.06 %.
