UNICEF ETHIOPIA HUMANITARIAN SITUATION REPORT Situation Overview & Humanitarian Needs Following the release of the Ethiopia Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO) and Ethiopia Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP), which were developed by the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Coordination (UNOCHA) in collaboration with the National Disaster Risk Management Commission (NDRMC) in March 2019, UNICEF revised its Humanitarian Appeal for Children (HAC) requirement from US$124.1 to US$143.5 million. The HAC requirement is costed by considering the needs, targets, and the capacities of UNICEF partners. Accordingly, UNICEF will target three million people, including 1.59 million children, through interventions in Nutrition, Health, Child Protection, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), and Education. The increase in targeted beneficiaries is a result of the rising number of conflict-induced IDPs and the adverse effects of consecutive years of severe droughts in parts of the country, coupled with expected drought conditions from June onwards predominantly in the southern part of the country. The cost of reaching new refugee arrivals is also included. The disaggregated figures on population in need is depicted in the below table: Estimated Population in Need of Humanitarian Assistance and Population Targeted through Humanitarian Response Plan (Estimates calculated based on initial figures from Ethiopia Humanitarian Needs Overview 2019 and Ethiopia Demographics and Health Survey 2016) Start of humanitarian response: In Need Targeted Total Male Female Total Male Female Total Population in Need 8,860,000 4,456,580 4,403,420 8,300,000 4,174,900 4,125,100 Children (Under 18) 4,890,000 2,459,670 2,430,330 4,580,926 2,304,206 2,276,720 Children (Under Five) 1,302,420 655,117 647,303 1,220,100 613,710 606,390 According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM)’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) round 16 (conducted March – April 2019) and rapid assessments, there are 3.1 million IDPs in Ethiopia. Conflict was reported to be the primary cause of displacement (2,505,832 million) followed by displacement due to climate induced factors (498,841 million). Displacement trends in 2019 are depicted in the table below: Causes of Internal Displacement in Ethiopia April 2019 2,481,726 Conflict 2,505,832 508,228 Climate induced 498,841 55,485 Other 72,389 DTM Round 15 DTM Round 16 On 8 April, the Government of Ethiopia, through the Ministry of Peace (MoP) and the National Disaster Risk Management Commission (NDRMC), presented its strategic plan for IDPs to donors and international agencies. The strategic plan builds on assessments it conducted on damage and loss of properties, and intention of the displaced, and incorporates the return of displaced to the areas of origin, re-integration in the current area of displacement, and relocation to other areas within the region. Furthermore, the plan will adopt a three-phased, sequential approach; 1) prioritizing those ready to return to areas of origin within two months (June 2019); 2) prioritizing those who will be ready to return in the intermediate term which is envisaged within four months; and 3) prioritizing those who’ve lost livelihoods and assets, including those whose places of origin are deemed viable for return but who still choose not to return. To realize this, the Government has requested support from donors and international agencies worth US$ 700 million. According to the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWSNET), the delayed and below average performance of the Gu/Gana rainy season in southern and south-eastern pastoral areas of Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region (SNNPR), Oromia and Somali regions, is expected to cause significant food insecurity and water scarcity in these areas. As a result, these areas are expected to remain in Crisis (IPC Phase 31) through September 2019. The national level of acute malnutrition is also likely to deteriorate through September due to the seasonal reduction in food access during the lean season, intermittent humanitarian assistance, and shortage of specialized nutritious foods for children under five and lactating and pregnant mothers in displacement sites and drought-affected areas. The graph below depicts the projected food security outcomes across the country. 1 Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) phases are used to illustrate thresholds and classify the severity of the current or projected food security situation. The phases range from IPC 1- 5 ranging from minimal food insecurity to famine. 2 UNICEF ETHIOPIA HUMANITARIAN SITUATION REPORT Projected food security outcomes, April to May 2019 Projected food security outcomes, June- September 2019 Source: FEWSNET Food Security Outlook Update Source: FEWSNET Food Security Outlook Update A flood alert by the National Disaster Risk Management Commission (NDRMC) reported that flooding on 15 April forced three rivers to change their natural course and inundated farmlands, destroying houses in Silti Woreda in SNNPR. As a result, 5,615 people were reported to have been displaced with deaths of livestock that further exposes the community to economic insecurity and restricts their access to basic services. In April, damage to 407 houses, three schools, and six woreda administration offices was reported due to floods, heavy rain and wind in in seven woredas of three regions (Amhara, Gambella, and Tigray). The country is projected to experience further floods and the below graph depicts areas prone to flood. The country is projected to experience further floods.

This platform will include representatives from EPHI, different Directorates of the Ministry of Health (MoH) and other Government sectors, WHO, CDC, UNICEF, and other partners who are current members of the PHEOC. Humanitarian Leadership and Coordination The humanitarian response in Ethiopia is led by the National Disaster Risk Management Commission (NDRMC) through the federal and regional Disaster Risk Management Technical Working Groups (DRMTWGs).

  • COUNTRY Food Security Update
    ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update September 2013 Crops are at their normal developmental stages in most parts of the country Figure 1. Projected food security outcomes, KEY MESSAGES September 2013 • Following the mostly normal performance of the June to September Kiremt rains, most crops are at their normally expected developmental stage. A near normal Meher harvest is expected in most parts of the country. However, in places where Kiremt rains started late and in areas where some weather-related hazards occurred, some below normal production is anticipated. • Market prices of most staple cereals remain stable at their elevated levels compared to previous months, but prices are likely to fall slightly starting in October due to the expected near normal Meher production in most parts of the country, which, in turn, will also improve household-level food access from October to December. Source: FEWS NET Ethiopia • Overall, current nutritional status compared to June/July has slightly improved or remains the same with exceptions in Figure 2. Projected food security outcomes, some areas in northeastern Tigray and Amhara Regions as October to December 2013 well as some parts of East Hararghe Zone in Oromia Region. In these areas, there are indications of deteriorating nutritional status due to the well below average Belg harvest and the current absence of a green harvest from long-cycle Meher crops. CURRENT SITUATION • Cumulative Kiremt rainfall from June to September was normal to above normal and evenly distributed in all of Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region (SNNPR), in most parts of Amhara, in central and western parts Oromia, and in the central parts of Tigray.

The climate is mostly arid/semi-arid in lowland areas and cooler/wetter in the higher areas. Annual rainfall ranges from 150 - ~600mm per year. The region can be divided into two broader rainfall regimes based on the seasons of the year: Siti and Fafan zones to the north, and the remaining seven zones to the south. The rainfall pattern for both is bimodal but the timings differ slightly. The southern seven zones (Nogob, Jarar, Korahe, Doollo, Shabelle, Afder, Liban and Harshin District of Fafan Zone) receive ‘Gu’ rains (main season) from mid April to end of June, and secondary rains known as ‘Deyr’ from early October to late December. In the north, Siti and Fafan zones excluding Harshin of Fafan zone receive ‘Dirra’ - Objectives of the assessment also known as ‘Gu’ rains from late March To evaluate the outcome of the Deyr/Karan to late May.

  • 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.

  • ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update August 2013 Normal Performance of June to September Kiremt Rains Continues in Most Parts of the Country
    ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update August 2013 Normal performance of June to September Kiremt rains continues in most parts of the country Figure 1. Current food security outcomes, August to KEY MESSAGES September 2013 • The Kiremt rains and Meher crops have been largely normal in terms of schedule and progress in most areas of the country. However, the northwestern parts of Amhara and Tigray, some lowland areas in East Hararghe Zone in Oromia, and Segen and the northern parts of South Omo Zone in Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region (SNNPR) have received below average total June to September rainfall so far. • Floods, hailstorms, and landslides among other weather- related hazards have been reported from several parts of the country, resulting in deaths, affecting planted crops, and causing some displacement. With anticipated above normal rainfall in August in some areas, there is likely to be additional flooding. Source: FEWS NET Ethiopia • Though the cumulative June to September rainfall in Figure 2. Projected food security outcomes, northwestern parts of the country remains below average, October to December 2013 rains started at near normal levels from mid-July that has enabled farmers to plant sesame and short-cycle sorghum. However, planting was delayed by more than four weeks, which consequently has delayed crop development. CURRENT SITUATION • The Belg harvest has almost concluded in Amhara, Tigray, and Oromia Regions. Below average production is reported in most of the Belg-producing areas. However, in SNNPR, Belg crops such as teff, barley, haricot beans, and Irish potatoes are being harvested with near average yields. Green consumption of maize has started in many areas of Gamo Gofa, Wolayita, Kambata, Dawro, and Sidama Zones, and the dry harvesting of Belg maize has started in some Source: FEWS NET Ethiopia areas of Segen and the western parts of SNNPR.

(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X The Right to Access to Justice: Assessing Enforcement of Legal Guarantees in Ethiopian Somali Regional State (Case Study) By Marishet Mohammed Hamza (Llm), Melaku Gezahegn & Fikre Tinsae Berhane (Llm) Wolaita Sodo University Abstract- The right to access to justice is one of core human rights that is fundamental to ensure full protection of human rights. The right is recognized in almost all international and regional human rights treaties; including those Ethiopia is member. The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Constitution also clearly recognized the right. Among others, the right imposes upon States the obligation to set up all appropriate legal and institutional frameworks that address claims of violations of rights. Specifically, States have the obligation to adopt appropriate legislations; put in place competent judicial and quasi-judicial organs; ensure accessibility and effective functioning of those organs; and guarantee fair trial rights in proceedings. As a State party to different international and regional human rights treaties, and to fulfill the Constitutional pledge, Ethiopia has the obligation to ensure that the right to access to justice is fully protected and fulfilled throughout the nation.

  • A History of Derbé Belanbel Historical and Cultural Site Wagaw Bogale* Bahir Dar University, Ethiopia
    ACCESS Freely available online rism & OPEN ou H f T o o s l p a i t n a r l i u t y o J Journal of ISSN: 2167-0269 Tourism & Hospitality Research Article A History of Derbé Belanbel Historical and Cultural Site Wagaw Bogale* Bahir Dar University, Ethiopia ABSTRACT The objective of the study is to reconstruct the history of Derbé Belanbel historical and cultural site. This is very crucial because though the historical and cultural site in question played a significant role in revealing the history and the tourism industry of the Region and by extension the history of the country; scholars have not given the attention it deserves so far. In the process of reconstructing its history, we came to realize that no scholar has studied the site before. Derbé Belanbel is located in Dhuhun wereda of Nogob Zone of the Ethiopian Somali Regional State. It is far from the town of Jigjiga, the administrative center of the Region, by about 450 kilometers in its southern direction. Methodologically the researcher mainly used the qualitative method and culled data from secondary literature but the study heavily relies on field observation and information gathered from knowledgeable informants. As far as we have tried to establish, Derbé Belanbel was a medieval center of culture and civilization of the Harla Somalis characterized by stone built houses, steles, and a Mosque that appropriately suggest a religious settlement. The stone built houses are similar with those located in the Harar, Dire Dawa and Zeila areas as well as with those located in the northern parts of proper Somalia.
