The launch of the first Ethiopian National Nutrition Strategy and implementation of the National Nutrition Programme are testament to the national drive to Osignificantly improve the population’s nutritional status and to manage the threats to people’s nutrition and food security posed by recurrent emergencies. This special issue of Field Exchange focuses on Ethiopia, 25 years on from the devastating famine of the 1980s. It brings together articles written by many highly experienced Government and non-government actors about the country’s large-scale programmes aimed at preventing and treating acute malnutrition, reducing food insecurity, tackling childhood sickness and improving people’s livelihoods. The wealth of experience contained in these articles reflects the results of many years of lesson learning both within Ethiopia and internationally. Challenges remain with to-scale programming and these are outlined, as are the potential solutions. Smaller scale projects, research initiatives and key national nutrition and coordinating institutions are also profiled in this publication. Overall, this issue of Field Exchange provides a unique and comprehensive picture of Ethiopia’s nutrition and food security programming. It is of value, not only as a resource for those of us in Ethiopia who are working in a complex nutrition and food security environment, but also to others in emergency prone and food insecure countries which are scaling up programmes to address undernutrition. Ethiopia has come a very long way in 25 years. The work being undertaken by Government in partnership with many UN, NGO, church and community based organisations, academic institutions and coordinating bodies as documented here is undoubtedly saving countless lives and, whilst much still needs to be done to tackle food insecurity and undernutrition, these endeavours are providing a better tomorrow for millions of Ethiopians.

  • ETHIOPIA - TIGRAY REGION HUMANITARIAN UPDATE Situation Report Last Updated: 12 Feb 2021
    ETHIOPIA - TIGRAY REGION HUMANITARIAN UPDATE Situation Report Last updated: 12 Feb 2021 HIGHLIGHTS (12 Feb 2021) As of the 12 of February, UN agencies and NGOs have received approval from the Federal Government for 53 international staff to move to Tigray. Humanitarians continue to call for the resumption of safe and unimpeded access to adequately meet the rising needs in the region, which have far outpaced the capacity to respond. Current assistance pales in comparison to the increasing needs particularly in rural areas, still out of reach and where most people lived before the conflict. Continued disruptions to essential services pose huge hurdles to the scale up of humanitarian response, more than three months into the conflict. The boundaries and names shown and the designations used on this map do not imply official endorsement or acceptance by the United Nations. © OCHA Ongoing clashes are reported in many parts of Tigray, while aid workers continue to receive alarming reports of insecurity and attacks against civilians.

ETHIOPIA ∗ Zelalem Tesfaye Sirna ABSTRACT In sub-Saharan African countries where democracy and rule of law are proclaimed but in several circumstances not translated into practice, it appears vital to look into alternatives that can fill governance deficits. It is against this backdrop that ‘‘Old Wine in New Bottles: Bridging the Peripheral Gadaa Rule to the Mainstream Constitutional Order of the 21st Century Ethiopia” came into focus. The main objective of this article is, therefore, to respond to the search of alternative solution to hurdles democratization process, Africa as a region as well as Ethiopia as a country faces, through African indigenous knowledge of governance, namely the Gadaa System. Accordingly, institutional and fundamental principles analyzed in this article clearly indicate that indigenous system of governance such as the Gadaa System embraces indigenous democratic values that are useful in 21 st century Ethiopia. In sum, three main reasons support this article: first, in Africa no system of governance is perfectly divorced from its indigenous institutions of governance; second, indigenous knowledge of governance as a resource that could enhance democratization in Ethiopia should not be left at peripheries; and third, an inclusive policy that accommodates diversity and ensures the advancement of human culture appeals.

  • Using a Geographical Information System Within the BASIS Research Program in Ethiopia
    Using a Geographical Information System within the BASIS Research Program in Ethiopia A report prepared for the Institute for Development Anthropology (IDA) under the BASIS/Institute for Development Research (IDR) program for Ethiopia Report prepared by: Michael Shin, Ph. D. Department of Geography and Regional Studies University of Miami Table of Contents 1 Levels of Analysis and the South Wollo 1 2 Spatial Analysis in the South Wollo 5 3 Data Issues within the South Wollo 7 References 9 Appendix A: Trip Report for Michael Shin 10 1 This report provides a preliminary account of how a geographical information system (GIS) can be integrated within the BASIS research program in Ethiopia, and provides recommendations for its development and use. Part I shows how data from different levels of analysis, and diverse sources, are integrated into a comprehensive food security database for the South Wollo. Spatial analyses which can be used to organize, inform and extend the on-going market surveys and market inventories in the South Wollo are illustrated in Part II, and the final section provides suggestions for future data collection efforts. Data for this report were collected by Dr. Michael Shin during his visit to Ethiopia between 27 July 1999 and 7 August 1999, which was shortened by approximately one week due to inclement weather and sporadic travel times. Presentation graphics within this report were created with the ArcView (version 3.1) GIS distributed by Environmental Systems Research, Incorporated, and MacroMedia FreeHand (version 8.0.1) graphic design software. Due to high start-up costs, both financially and in terms of technical capacity building which are documented in Shin (1998), subsequent GIS analyses for the South Wollo food security project should be conducted in the United States.
