The report provides recommendations for the initial phase of establishing a development program in the region. The Zone of North Shewa in the Amhara region of Ethiopia has been proposed for establishing a community-based Development program focusing on agricultural and artisan craft. The communities of the area have ancestral roots related to Bete Israel communities of Gondar and are related to the Jewish community of Kechene in Addis. The Bete Israel of North Shea are a marginalized populations who face discrimination based on their history and religious differences. This document provides an overview of the program area and insights into the Gedams (holy place used for prayer). Furthermore, it proposes the establishment of a development program aimed to improve the social and economic conditions of the Bete Israel Community of North Shewa that will be leveraged as a mechanism for region-wide development initiatives. The activities in the program will aim to reidentify the Bete Israel community of North Shewa and strengthen their historical ties while improving their economic and social standing. The program proposes to establish several projects in the realms of agriculture, water, artisanship crafts, education and community organization that will develop regional partnerships with multiple stakeholders. The program’s primary stakeholders are the Bete Israel communities of the Gedams (religious centers), Debre Brehan and Kechene. The program will seek to develop multiple stakeholders’ partnerships in the region. The program’s establishment will require additional data collection, with precise information of each Gedam that will be included in the program and the Bete Israel communities. The community projects will focus on establishing a community center in Debre Brehan and introducing relief technologies through the Gedams Agricultural projects will focus on fruit tree development, vegetable production, livestock program and capacity building. The Crafts projects will focus on introducing new technologies, improving production and market linkages while establishing Israel-Ethiopia partnerships in design. The document provides recommendations on activities, partnerships and a rough timeframe for initiation. The implementation of the program requires specific staff, which is detailed in the document as well. The connection to Jewish ancestry in Ethiopia is important for international Jewry, for Ethiopian Jews in Israel and for the establishment of a strong Jewish community in Ethiopia. The history of Ethiopia's Jews and the connection between these communities and Israel is important for establishing strong linkages between the countries and towards understanding our shared 5 Bete Israel of North Shewa Development Program history. The program established serves as a mechanism for promoting and developing Jewish led professional development. Introduction North Shewa is one of 10 Zones in the Ethiopian Amhara Region. The zone takes its name from the former kingdom or province of Shewa. The region's history stretches back to the kingdom of Aksum and to becoming the center for regional kings from the mid-10th century to the end of the 14th century. The area was conquered by Muslim forces from the state of Adal to the east and in the 1800's the kingdom of Shewa regained prominence under the leadership of Melenik II who established the borders of modern day Ethiopia. The Zone of Semien Shewa in Amhara is bordered on the south and the west by the Oromia Region, on the north by Debub Wollo and on the east by the Afar Region. Towns and cities in North Shewa include Ankober, Debre Berhan, and Shewa Robit. The population of the zone is now estimated between 3-5 million people. The administrative capital of the zone is Debre Brehan, located in Bossena Woreda, is proposed to be the central and intial site of implementation. Debre Brehan is 120 kilometers north east of Addis Ababa on a paved highway to Dessie. Debre Brehan is located at 9.680 deg latitude, 39.533 deg longitude, and 2,783 m elevation. It was an early capital of Ethiopia, as part of the Shewa Kingdom. The capital was afterwards moved to Ankober and Angolalla. Today, the city is the administrative center of the North Shewa Zone and thus a center of the zonal decision making. Based on the 2007 national census conducted by the Central Statistical Agency of Ethiopia (CSA), this town has a total population of 65,231, with current estimates over 100,000. The Debre Brehan Municipality estimates a total population of 160,000. The city is located at an average of 2750 meter above sea level and classified as Dega- agro-climatic zone. The average temperatures range between 6.5 – 200 C and an average annual rainfall close to 1000 mm/yr. In the North Shewa

    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.

  • Periodic Monitoring Report Working 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document – Ethiopia Group
    DRMTechnical Periodic Monitoring Report Working 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document – Ethiopia Group Covering 1 Jan to 31 Dec 2016 Prepared by Clusters and NDRMC Introduction The El Niño global climactic event significantly affected the 2015 meher/summer rains on the heels of failed belg/ spring rains in 2015, driving food insecurity, malnutrition and serious water shortages in many parts of the country. The Government and humanitarian partners issued a joint 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document (HRD) in December 2015 requesting US$1.4 billion to assist 10.2 million people with food, health and nutrition, water, agriculture, shelter and non-food items, protection and emergency education responses. Following the delay and erratic performance of the belg/spring rains in 2016, a Prioritization Statement was issued in May 2016 with updated humanitarian requirements in nutrition (MAM), agriculture, shelter and non-food items and education.The Mid-Year Review of the HRD identified 9.7 million beneficiaries and updated the funding requirements to $1.2 billion. The 2016 HRD is 69 per cent funded, with contributions of $1.08 billion from international donors and the Government of Ethiopia (including carry-over resources from 2015). Under the leadership of the Government of Ethiopia delivery of life-saving and life- sustaining humanitarian assistance continues across the sectors. However, effective humanitarian response was challenged by shortage of resources, limited logistical capacities and associated delays, and weak real-time information management. This Periodic Monitoring Report (PMR) provides a summary of the cluster financial inputs against outputs and achievements against cluster objectives using secured funding since the launch of the 2016 HRD.

    EMERGENCIES UNIT FOR UNITED NATIONS ETHIOPIA (UN-EUE) Cheffa Valley: refuge for 50,000 pastoralists and 200,000 animals Present humanitarian situation and livestock conditions in selected areas in and around Afar region Assessment Mission: 21- 26 July 2002 By Francois Piguet, UN-Emergencies Unit for Ethiopia 1 Introduction and background The mission’s major objective was to assess the humanitarian situation and livestock condition in selected surrounding areas of Afar region and in the Cheffa valley (Oromiya zone, Amhara region). The mission also cross-checked the situation in Afar region zone 5 and the Argobba special woreda (Afar region zone 3), from where unusual pastoralists movements started in January 2002. The assessment focused on animal condition, migration, marketing conditions and terms of trade, food availability and the nutritional situation in pastoralist settlements, particularly availability of milk. The mission hoped to get a better understanding of pastoralist stress migration and coping mechanisms in the western border zones with the Amhara highlands. During the field trip the following areas were visited: Adadlehangeg Sinkinamelket kebele in Simurobi Gele’Alo woreda (zone 5, Afar region), Cheffa Valley with temporary Afar settlements (Photo by Yves Guinand, UN- EUE, June 1999) Bati woreda (Oromiya zone, Amhara region), Telalak and Dewe woredas (zone 5, Afar region), Dalifage in Artuma woreda (zone 5, Afar region) Kemise (Oromiya zone, Amhara region), Showa Robit (North Showa, Amhara region) and Gacheni in Argobba special woreda (zone 3, Afar Region). Except Fursi woreda still located off-road, the four other woredas of zone 5, Afar region were visited. South-western areas in Afar Region: zone 5 as well as Dulecha close to Argobba woreda in zone 3, Afar pastoralists are usually moving to the western escarpment (Oromiya zone in Amhara Region and North Showa) and/or to Zone 3, along the Awash River.

  • Ethnobotanical Study of Medicinal Plants Used to Treat Livestock Ailments in Ensaro District, North Shewa Zone, Amhara Region, Ethiopia
    Ethnobotanical Study of Medicinal Plants Used To Treat Livestock Ailments In Ensaro District, North Shewa Zone, Amhara Region, Ethiopia Asaye Asfaw ( [email protected] ) Debre Brehan University Ermias Lulekal Addis Ababa University Tamrat Bekele Addis Ababa University Asfaw Debella Ethiopian Public Health Institute Eyob Debebe Ethiopian Public Health Institute Bihonegn Ssisay Ethiopian Public Health Institute Research Article Keywords: Ethiopia, Ethnoveterinary medicine, livestock diseases, indigenous knowledge Posted Date: August 17th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-733200/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/24 Abstract Introduction: In Ethiopia, the majority of animal owners throughout the country depend on traditional healthcare practices to manage their animals’ health. Ethnoveterinary practices play signicantly greater roles in livestock health care as an alternative or integral part of modern veterinary practices. This is because traditional medicines have remained the most economically affordable and easily available form of therapies for resource-poor communities. Even although, ethnoveterinary medicine is the most important and has higher acceptance and trust by the community in Ethiopia, ethnoveterinary medicinal plants and associated indigenous practices are not adequately documented. This study aimed to identify and document ethnoveterinary medicinal plants with their associated indigenous practices along with the habitats of these plants in Ensaro district. Methods: This ethnobotanical survey included 389 informants (283 males and 106 females) from all 14 kebeles of Ensaro district, which is the smallest administrative unit in Amhara Regional State's North Shewa Zone. Systematic random and intentional sampling techniques have been used to obtain representative informants.
