  • Heading with Word in Woodblock
    Oromia Region, Area brief Regional Overview Oromia (sometimes spelled Oromiya, in the Oromo language) is one of the nine regions of Ethiopia. The 2007 census reported its population at over 28 million, making it the largest state in terms of both population and area. Oromia shares a boundary with every Region of Ethiopia except for the Tigray Region. With an estimated area of 353,006.81 square kilometers, this region has an estimated population density of 76.93 people per square kilometer. The region includes the former major Ethiopian provinces Arsi, Bale, Hararghe, Illubabor, Kaffa, Shewa, Sidamo, and Welega provinces. Its current capital is officially Addis Ababa (Oromo: Finfinne). Administratively, Adama serves as a center for the regional state. Other important cities and towns include Adama, Ambo, Asella, Bishoftu, Dembidolo, Fiche, Gimbi, Goba, Jimma, Metu, Negele Boran, Nekemte, Shashamane and Waliso. The Regional infant mortality rate is 76 infant deaths per 1,000 live births, similar to the nationwide average of 77; at least half of these deaths occurr in the infants’ first month of life. Low latrine coverage and little awareness of basic hygiene practices across many parts of the region are having a significant impact on the health and wellbeing of children and their families. In view of the above Save the Children in collaboration with the government and other key allies’ works to achieve MDG 4 and 5 by reducing maternal, newborn and child deaths. As part of our EVERYONE campaign we work to raise awareness in communities about safe delivery and child caring practices. We also work with relevant partners to improve the WASH services and practices at household and facility level.

    Ethiopia Budget Birding th th 25 November to 6 December 2019 (12 days) Trip Report Stresemann’s Bush Crow by Gareth Robbins Trip report compiled by Tour Leader: Gareth Robbins Trip Report – RBL Ethiopia – Budget Birding 2019 2 Tour in Detail Today was the first full day of the tour and after an early breakfast, we left Addis Ababa just in time to miss the traffic and made our way to the town of Debre Birhan. We saw a good number of birds along the way such as Red-breasted Wheatear, the huge Thick-billed Raven, Wattle Ibis, Ortolan Buntings, a large flock of Ethiopian Siskins, Thekla’s Larks, Lanner Falcons, Common Kestrel and an Augur Buzzard. We stopped at a small village just outside the town of Debre Birhan and got fantastic looks at Bearded Vultures as they flew overhead. We also got a long distant view of two Blue-winged Geese. We visited the Debre Birhan Rubbish Dump and got to see some Hooded Vultures, Black Kites and a Tawny Eagle. On the other side of the town, we managed to see Three-banded Plover, Wood Sandpiper, two Abyssinian Longclaws and a female Northern Fiscal impaling an unlucky grasshopper onto the Bearded Vulture by Gareth Robbins barbs of a barbed-wire fence. We then checked into our hotel and had an entertaining lunch before we took the long drive up to three thousand metres above sea level to a place called Gemasa Gedel which was covered by some dark thick cloud. Visibility was terrible here and it was freezing.

Over 90% Mohammedaman Mama 2 of tuberculosis cases occur in low- and middle-income countries that have fragile health Damtew Solomon3 infrastructures and constrained resources available. Ethiopia ranks third in Africa and eighth Mesud Mohammed1 of 22 from TB burdened countries globally. Case detection as early as possible and ensuring a successful treatment rate should be the main focus points to decrease the burden of TB. 1 Department of Pharmacy, School of Objective: To evaluate tuberculosis treatment outcomes and predictors among tuberculosis Medicine, Madda Walabu University Goba Referral Hospital, Bale Goba, treatment follow-up patients at Madda Walabu University Goba Referral Hospital.

  • Indications of the Changing Nature of Rainfall in Ethiopia: the Example of the 1St Decade of 21St Century
    Vol. 9(2), pp. 104-110, February, 2015 DOI: 10.5897/AJEST2014.1787 Article Number: 252395949826 African Journal of Environmental Science and ISSN 1996-0786 Copyright © 2015 Technology Author(s) retain the copyright of this article http://www.academicjournals.org/AJEST Full Length Research Paper Indications of the changing nature of rainfall in Ethiopia: The example of the 1st decade of 21st century Lemma Bekele Geography Department, Kotebe Univesity College, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Received 7 September, 2014; Accepted 7 January, 2015 Climate change was defined as a statistically significant variation in the mean state of climate. Accordingly, with regards to rainfall, a working hypothesis that reads as: there is a statistically significant change (increase/decrease) in the mean annual and seasonal rainfall values at weather stations was forwarded for testing. Eight years (2001-2008) annual and seasonal rainfall data of 17 weather stations from most parts of Ethiopia were used for the purpose. Setting the significance level at 0.05, the simple correlation and regression techniques were used to reach results. Most stations from the western part of Ethiopia were seen to exhibit statistically significant increasing trend in annual rainfall receipt. Albeit not significantly, northward and eastward from here, the receipt was also seen tending first to increase then decrease. This tendency was observed to overlap with the traditional distribution of rainfall in the country. The alternating of dry and wet years and the more localizing of wet years than dry years were identified. The four seasons considered were observed to be statistically significant, but increasing and decreasing trends in seasonal rainfall receipt at the respective stations were not significant.

  • Urgent Need for Integrated Emergency Response in 141 Outbreak and Undernutrition Affected Woredas of Ethiopia in 2020
    JOINT INTER-CLUSTER ADVOCACY PAPER URGENT NEED FOR INTEGRATED EMERGENCY RESPONSE IN 141 OUTBREAK AND UNDERNUTRITION AFFECTED WOREDAS OF ETHIOPIA IN 2020 Ethiopian population is currently facing new crises while past crises are not yet resolved. The recurrent food & undernutrition crises and increased frequency of measles and cholera outbreaks in the course of 2019 are now further exacerbated by desert locust infestations and upcoming COVID-19 pandemic. The complexification of the emergency needs requires to bring together our integrated efforts and expertise to address them. Ethiopia Health Cluster, WASH Cluster and Emergency Nutrition Coordination Unit established Health, WASH and Nutrition Technical Woking Group (HWN TWG) to further boost joint response in 141 woreda and IDP camps of Ethiopia by implementing minimum multi-sectoral response package. OUR ASKS • The HWN TWG asks the EHCT to support our initiative by providing more visibility and attention to this integrated initiative and request an opportunity to provide periodic updates at EHCT meetings. • The HWN TWG asks the Government of Ethiopia, especially NDRMC, MOH, EPHI and MOWIE, to improve the joint Health, WASH and Nutrition collaboration, to foster joint system strengthening and data sharing with humanitarian actors. • The HWN TWG asks Donors, including EHF and all the Rapid Response Mechanisms, to prioritise multisectoral funding in priority woredas and consider the multi-sectoral approach as an example of good practice. • The HWN TWG asks implementing partners to include the pilot of the Health WASH and Nutrition minimum package in their future proposals and project design. Partners are encouraged to work as a consortium to jointly implement the full package.
