I want to praise Virgin Mary, Mother of perfect God. When I came to my study, this dissertation would not have been possible without the support and assistance of many individuals and organizations who volunteered their valuable time, expertise and resources. First of all, I would like to express my very great appreciation to my supervisors at University College Cork (UCC) Dr. Nicholas G. Chisholm and Dr. Patrick Enright for their patient guidance, enthusiastic encouragement, useful critiques, valuable and constructive suggestions during the planning and development of this research work. Their willingness to give their time so generously has been very much appreciated. I gratefully acknowledge the funding source that my PhD works possible. I was funded by the Ethiopian Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Capacity Building Project (RCBP). I also would like to thank the Ireland Embassy in Ethiopia and Irish Aid for their additional support in the final year. Very special thanks to my organization Bahir Dar University which gave study leave to undertake my doctoral research. Above all my sincere gratitude is reserved for Mr. Moges Hiluf Abrha, RCBP training and communication specialist, who made the first special and remarkable endeavor towards my journey to accomplish this P…h…D. I would like to thank the staff of the following Governmental and Non-Governmental offices in Amhara Regional State for enabling me to visit their offices, to observe their daily operations as well as to collect data: Bureau of Agriculture, Bureau of Water and Energy, Bureau of Environmental Protection and Land Use Administration, Bureau of Cooperative Agency, Bahir Dar Fishery and Aquatic Life Research Center, Tana Haik No.1 Fishery Cooperative, Ethio-Wetland and Natural Resource Association (EWNRA)- Fogera office etc. I would also like to thank the staff members of Wereta ATVET College for hosting me office and support. My special thanks are extended to the staff of Bureau of ii Environmental Protection Land Use and Administration (BoEPLUA) particularly Mr. Tekelu Damtie, Mr. Woldegebriel G/Kidan and Mr. Abebaw for their honest and genuine information. They helped me to super-impose my almost all group discussions in their community training and awareness creation programmes. I wish to acknowledge the help provided by stakeholder identification and analysis workshop participants for their valuable time and interactive workshop. Special thanks also go to the household survey respondents, key informants and group discussion participants for their time and dedication. I am particularly grateful for the assistance given by Mr. Aklog Tegene, Mr. Babiyew Sibhat and enumerators across all sampled districts, who endure the tedious household survey and organizing group discussions. Mr. Belay Yirdaw, who drove me to the rural areas of libokemkem and Fogera plain, deserves special thanks.

Finally, my mom Yelfign Deribew, my wife Simegn Addissie and lovely daughter Nuhamin Dessalegn deserve special thanks for their patience, love and encouragement to success of my life. Especially Simegn endured my absence in the home and in shouldering far more than her fair share of parenting and household burdens while I pursued all my ‘post-grad’ degrees. She has sacrificed her life for me since long time and provided unconditional love and care. She has been a constant source of strength and inspiration. I love her so much, and I would not have made it this far without her. Dessalegn M. Ketema Cork-Ireland, 2013 iii ABSTRACT Although Common Pool Resources (CPRs) make up a significant share of total income for rural households in Ethiopia and elsewhere in developing world, limited access to these resources and environmental degradation threaten local livelihoods. As a result, the issues of management, governance of CPRs and how to prevent their over-exploitation are of great importance for development policy. This study examines the current state and dynamics of CPRs and overall resource governance system of the Lake Tana sub-basin. This research employed the modified Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework. The framework integrates the concept of Socio-ecological Systems and Interactive Governance perspectives where social actors, institutions, the politico-economic context, discourses and ecological features across governance and government levels were considered. It has been observed that overexploitation, degradation and encroachment of CPRs have increased dramatically and this threatens the sustainability of Lake Tana ecosystem. The stakeholder analysis result reveals that there are multiple stakeholders with diverse interest in and power over CPRs that often lead to competition and conflict. Local community, private investors, governmental, non-governmental, national and international stakeholders are engaged in the process of resource use, management and governance. The analysis of institutional arrangements reveals that the existing formal rules and regulations governing access to and control over CPRs could not be implemented and were not effective to legally bind and govern CPR user’s behavior at the operational level. The study also shows that a top-down and non-participatory policy formulation, law and decision making process that overlooks the local contexts (local knowledge and informal institutions) fails to understand the diverse, dynamic, complex and sensitive nature of the natural and human sub-systems. The outcomes of examining the participation of local resource users, as an alternative to a centralized, command-and-control, and hierarchical approach to resource management and governance, have called for a fundamental shift in CPR use, management and governance to facilitate the participation of stakeholders in decision-making. Therefore, establishing a multi-level stakeholder governance system as an institutional structure and process is necessary to sustain stakeholder participation in decision-making regarding CPR use, management and governance.

The In Africa and other developing countries, sustainability of rural water supply is quite low with 30 to 60% of the main research document will soon be available at schemes becoming non-functional at some point after www.wateraidethiopia.org and www.bdu.edu.et. implementation (Brikké and Bredero, 2003). The lack of community participation especially in management has been recognized as one of the reasons for the low Background sustainability (Carter.1999). For example, limited Harvey and Reed (2006) explain that “community involvement of the community at all stages of water participation does not automatically lead to effective development, the lack of a modest water service fee community management, nor should it have to. and a shortage of adequate skill and capacity to Community participation is a prerequisite for maintain water resources are specific aspects of sustainability, i.e. to achieve efficiency, effectiveness, community participation that have decreased equity, and replicablity, but community management is sustainability of rural water supply in the Amhara not.

    Enhancing the Role of Forestry in Building Climate Resilient Green Economy in Ethiopia Strategy for scaling up effective forest management practices in Amhara National Regional State with particular emphasis on smallholder plantations Wubalem Tadesse Alemu Gezahegne Teshome Tesema Bitew Shibabaw Berihun Tefera Habtemariam Kassa Center for International Forestry Research Ethiopia Office Addis Ababa October 2015 Copyright © Center for International Forestry Research, 2015 Cover photo by authors FOREWORD This regional strategy document for scaling up effective forest management practices in Amhara National Regional State, with particular emphasis on smallholder plantations, was produced as one of the outputs of a project entitled “Enhancing the Role of Forestry in Ethiopia’s Climate Resilient Green Economy”, and implemented between September 2013 and August 2015. CIFOR and our ministry actively collaborated in the planning and implementation of the project, which involved over 25 senior experts drawn from Federal ministries, regional bureaus, Federal and regional research institutes, and from Wondo Genet College of Forestry and Natural Resources and other universities. The senior experts were organised into five teams, which set out to identify effective forest management practices, and enabling conditions for scaling them up, with the aim of significantly enhancing the role of forests in building a climate resilient green economy in Ethiopia. The five forest management practices studied were: the establishment and management of area exclosures; the management of plantation forests; Participatory Forest Management (PFM); agroforestry (AF); and the management of dry forests and woodlands. Each team focused on only one of the five forest management practices, and concentrated its study in one regional state.

    Group Organisers Manual Welcome to McCabe Pilgrimages Alistair McCabe’s involvement in pilgrimage dates back to 1976 when, straight out of university, he was appointed assistant warden of the then Scots Hospice beside the Sea of Galilee: an opportune introduction to pilgrimage and pilgrim parties. This led to managing the Holy Land department of Inter Church Travel working alongside the great pilgrimage innovator, Canon Arthur Payton. When Arthur retired in 1983, the time was right for McCabe Pilgrimages to be born. Rosemary Nutt joined the company shortly afterwards and Alistair and Rosemary are still the heart and soul of the company.

    ASSESSMENT OF CHALLENGES OF SUSTAINABLE RURAL WATER SUPPLY: QUARIT WOREDA, AMHARA REGION A Project Paper Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School Of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Professional Studies by Zemenu Awoke January 2012 © 2012 Zemenu Awoke Alemeyehu ABSTRACT Sustainability of water supplies is a key challenge, both in terms of water resources and service delivery. The United Nations International Children’s Fund (UNICEF) estimates that one third of rural water supplies in sub-Saharan Africa are non- operational at any given time. Consequently, the objective of this study is to identify the main challenges to sustainable rural water supply systems by evaluating and comparing functional and non-functional systems. The study was carried out in Quarit Woreda located in West Gojjam, Amhara Region, Ethiopia. A total of 217 water supply points (169 hand-dug wells and 50 natural protected springs) were constructed in the years 2005 to 2009. Of these water points, 184 were functional and 33 were non-functional. Twelve water supply systems (six functional and six non-functional) among these systems were selected. A household survey concerning the demand responsiveness of projects, water use practices, construction quality, financial management and their level of satisfaction was conducted at 180 households. All surveyed water projects were initiated by the community and the almost all of the potential users contributed money and labor towards the construction of the water supply point. One of the main differences between the functional and non-functional system was the involvement of the local leaders.

The region borders Tigray in the North, Afar in the East, Oromiya in the South, Benishangul-Gumiz in the Southwest and the country of Sudan to the west [1]. Amhara is divided into 11 zones, and 140 Weredas (see map at the bottom of this page). There are about 3429 kebeles (the smallest administrative units) [1]. "Decision-making power has recently been decentralized to Weredas and thus the Weredas are responsible for all development activities in their areas." The 11 administrative zones are: North Gonder, South Gonder, West Gojjam, East Gojjam, Awie, Wag Hemra, North Wollo, South Wollo, Oromia, North Shewa and Bahir Dar City special zone. [1] The historic Amhara Region contains much of the highland plateaus above 1500 meters with rugged formations, gorges and valleys, and millions of settlements for Amhara villages surrounded by subsistence farms and grazing fields. In this Region are located, the world- renowned Nile River and its source, Lake Tana, as well as historic sites including Gonder, and Lalibela. "Interspersed on the landscape are higher mountain ranges and cratered cones, the highest of which, at 4,620 meters, is Ras Dashen Terara northeast of Gonder.
