BACKGROUND The Productive Safety Net Programme (PSNP) is a component of the Ethiopian Government‟s Food Security Programme (FSP), and is an essential feature of the food security investment strategy for chronically food insecure weredas of the country. The development objective of the programme is to contribute to reducing household vulnerability and improving resilience to shock. The PSNP provides resources to chronically food insecure households through: (i) direct grants to labour-poor, elderly or incapacitated individuals, and (ii) payments to able-bodied members for participation in labour-intensive Public Works (PW) activities. Since the launch of the programme in 2005, more than eight million beneficiaries that were repeatedly affected by food shortage have received transfers on a regular basis and have consequently been able to meet their food needs. Today PSNP is typically the major undertaking of the weredas where the programme is operational. It has attempted to bring together various Government, donors and non-Government stakeholders to work in an integrated manner to achieve food security for the chronically food insecure households. The PW subprojects include soil and water conservation activities, feeder- roads, social infrastructure such as primary schools and health posts, water supply projects and small-scale irrigation. The selection of activities to be undertaken under the PW component is driven by a community-driven planning process, based on need. The PW component of the PSNP accounts for approximately 80% of the PSNP budget. The PW programme during the last six years of programme implementation has enabled the creation of an estimated 180,000 community- level assets, planned and implemented through Ethiopia‟s Community-based Participatory Watershed Development approach. The majority of these involve the rehabilitation of natural resources, but also include construction or expansion of community-level infrastructure such as feeder-roads, health posts, primary schools, Farmers‟ Training Centres and support to various community-initiated small-scale agricultural activities. PUBLIC WORKS IMPACT ASSESSMENT: PHASE 1: 2011 1 PSNP PUBLIC WORKS IMPACT ASSESSMENT: PHASE 1 - 2011 2. TERMS OF REFERENCE 2.1 Objectives The objectives of the Phase I PWIA are to assess the actual impacts and effectiveness to date of Natural Resource Management PW subprojects (NRM subprojects) undertaken in watersheds under the PSNP, and to make recommendations for improvement as appropriate. The study will assess: The extent to which the NRM subprojects form part and parcel of an integrated approach to watershed development; The impacts of the watershed development activities to date on: - the biophysical environment, and - the communities living in the watersheds, including PSNP beneficiaries; The contribution of the cumulative NRM subprojects to those impacts. 2.2 Comments of terms of Reference It is noted that the work involves the collecting of relevant data on the environmental condition of two watersheds, identifying activities have been carried out in terms of watershed development, assessing the impacts of the PSNP PW activities, analyzing the data collected, developing recommendations, and producing and presenting the final report. It also noted that the assessment of impacts should be both qualitative and quantitative, and cost-benefit ratios should be estimated for NRM subprojects in the watersheds examined. The section below on the Methodology outlines how the Consultants will undertake this work. It is understood that the focus of this PWIA is on the public works themselves and their environmental, social and economic impacts. The focus is thus not on the impacts of the FFW/CFW received under the PSNP on the recipients. This is the focus of the IFPRI-IDS Longitudinal Survey. The Terms of Reference note that secondary data will determine the following: PUBLIC WORKS IMPACT ASSESSMENT: PHASE 1: 2011 2 PSNP PUBLIC WORKS IMPACT ASSESSMENT: PHASE 1 - 2011 % of PW plans developed following community planning guidelines by December 2010. % of public works have an established management mechanism at completion starting from December 2010. % of public works reaching satisfactory standards and sustainability ratings by December 2010. % of PW projects screened by ESMF by December 2010. The Consultants note that in fact this quantitative data is obtained during the Annual Public Works Assessment. However, it only conducted in selected sample woredas and that it is possible that the woredas within the two target Watersheds for this Impact Assessment may not have been included. In this case quantitative secondary data will not be available. However, the Consultants will endevour to make a qualitative assessment of this information. 2.3 Watersheds Studied The Public Works Impact Assessment (PWIA) of Phase I involves a team composed of four members: Team Leader, Watershed Development Expert, Socio-Economist and GIS Expert, who are assigned to perform an integrated assessment on

  • Managing Risks in Smallholder Agriculture the Impacts of R4 on Livelihoods in Tigray, Ethiopia from 2012 to 2016
    OXFAM External Evaluation Report MANAGING RISKS IN SMALLHOLDER AGRICULTURE THE IMPACTS OF R4 ON LIVELIHOODS IN TIGRAY, ETHIOPIA FROM 2012 TO 2016 Malgosia Madajewicz The Center for Climate Systems Research Columbia University Asmelash Haile Tsegay Freelance Consultant Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Ruiwen Lee Columbia University September 26, 2017 As part of our commitment to accountability and learning, Oxfam will share conclusions and recommendations from evaluations. Internally we will share with relevant stakeholders, ensuring that they have an opportunity to participate in discussion of those results in meaningful ways. We will also publish the evaluation reports on our website in accessible language. As a rights-based organization, accountability, particularly to the communities we seek to serve, is of the highest importance to us. For Oxfam, accountability requires Oxfam to regularly and honestly assess the quality of its work, share and learn from its findings with primary stakeholders, and apply that learning in future work. This is an independent impact evaluation of Oxfam America’s R4, Rural resilience program. The program has been operating in in Ethiopia since 2009; it was expanded to Senegal in 2013 and more recently, in 2015, to Zambia and Malawi. This evaluation covers the work undertaken between the years 2015 and 2016.It also includes regression analysis, for some variables, for the periods 2009 – 2012 – 2015 – 2016. The major evaluation activities took place between March 2016 and September 2017. The evaluation was carried out by Malgosia Madajewicz, from Columbia University, through a competitive process and reflects the findings as reported by them, and it was validated with stakeholders.

E X E C U T I V E S U M M A R Y P A G E 0 2 Since the official declaration of war on November 4, 2020, the Ethiopian National Defense Forces (ENDF), Eritrean Defense Forces (EDF), and Amhara forces have wreaked havoc in Tigray, committing atrocities that amount to war crimEes, XcrimEes aCgainsUt humTaniIty,V andE acts oSf genUocidMe. ThiMs brutAal waRr haYs caused immense human suffering with countless reports of massacres and extrajudicial executions, widespread weaponized Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV), a man-made famine, and a refugee crisis that has displaced millions. In addition to the massacres carried out in Axum, Maryam Dengelat, and Kola Tembien in which hundreds of civilians were killed by Ethiopian and Eritrean forces, new video evidence of the January Mahbere Dego massacres surfaced in July. These extremely graphic videos show the ENDF grouping unarmed civilians by a cliff edge, executing and throwing their bodies over the cliff. A June 16 letter written by the interim administration of the Mai Kinetal zone in Central Tigray revealed that 440 people have been killed, 558 people have been victims of SGBV, and 125 people had died of starvation in this small region alone. Finally, an aerial bombardment on June 22 by the Ethiopian Air Force of the market town of Togoga, which is located 25 kilometers from Mekelle, killed over 60 civilians and injured hundreds.
