Improving long-term access to water, protecting lives and livelihoods To increase the sustainability of water schemes and undisrupted water access for the communities by piloting installation of solar system power sources.
Rollout of Water Supply Management Model & Promotion of Sanitation in Somali reg Following a United Nations Childrens Fund (UNICEF) 2017 study of rural water management in Ethiopia, a model for an innovative approach was developed for managing large multi -village schemes, moving away from purely voluntary Water Sanitation and Hygiene Coordinators (WASHCOs) towards a semi -professional utility team that will maintain the system as well as setting and collecting appropriate tariffs to cover costs. This project will facilitate the introduction and trial of this model in the Somali Region in a cluster of water schemes in the Siti Zone developed on deep climate -resilient boreholes and constructed by the Somali Region Water Bureau and UNICEF. This shift in management structure is a new approach for Ethiopia, and indeed for the sector globally, which is anticipated to improve functionality and sustainability, and the learning from this trial will influence the roll -out of the model in other regions of the country and elsewhere. The partners involved in the pilot have constituted a technical working group that will be providing guidance on the implementation of the project, mitigating this new approach and periodically assessing its performance. International Rescue Committee (IRC) will support UNICEF and Oxfam in the knowledge management -through an existing agreement -to ensure the trials are fully documented and knowledge shared. The second part of this project will focus on a further innovative Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) model, introducing participatory sanitation approaches in long -term Internally Displaced Person (IDP) settings, also in Siti Zone.  Where practicable these sites will link to those of the utility introduction to maximise synergies. The principle is to move away from the conventional communal blocks of IDP settings towards household sanitation at a collective level. This approach is aiming to ensure greater use of sanitation at a community level with a parallel improvement in public health. Community mobilization and hygiene pr
Water for Agriculture programme -Ethiopia The planned project for FY 18 build on Oxfam America's Ethiopia Water Program Strategy –PSP/ PIP – 2nd phase (2015 -2019).

Emergency WASH response to conflict affected IDPs in Gedeo - Ethiopia Since April 2018, continued insecurity and localised conflict between communities in Gedeo Zone (Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region – SNNPR) and West Guji Zone (Oromia Region) have led to the rapid displacement of some 970,000 people. The majority have fled their homes in early June when a significant increase in violence further aggravated the situation bringing the number of people internally displaced in Gedeo to over 820,000 and nearly 150,000 in West Guji.  Most of the displaced population are staying with host communities, while others are sheltering in collective sites like schools, Government buildings and disused factories.  In Gedeo, 514,446 people are staying with host communities and 307,741 in collective sites, of which there are at least 80.  Those staying with local communities still come to the collective sites during the day to access humanitarian services.  Overcrowded living conditions and open fire cooking next to sleeping areas, combined with a lack of safe sanitation access and hygiene items, as we as adverse weather conditions, are all contributing to a worsening environment from both public health and protection perspectives.  With Ethiopia in the middle of its rainy season, ensuring that internally displaced people have adequate Sanitation & Hygiene, shelter, to protect them for flooding and public health risks is a priority.  Following local government, United Nation (UN), and Non Government Organisation (NGO) requests, Oxfam sent an assessment team to validate needs and define how Oxfam should intervene. The assessment found low sanitation coverage for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) (only 10% of IDPs have access to a toilet); low access to safe water (before the crisis only 37% of residents in the affected areas had access to safe water); and no actors providing hygiene promotion support to IDPs.  There is a critical gap in complementary food items (fruits, vegetables, meat, milk and eggs) and there is a high demand

Her Future Her Choice - Ethiopia (Sexual Reproductive Health project) The project is developed to respond to the gender inequality and women's rights violations undermining access to comprehensive, rights -based sexual and reproductive health information and services for adolescent girls and young women (10 -24 years) in selected districts of Ethiopia, Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia.  It directly addresses the root causes hindering access to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) for adolescent girls and young women, which include gender inequality and discrimination; sexual and gender -based violence; harmful social norms, traditional practices and taboos regarding sexuality; and lack of decision making power by women regarding their health and sexuality. The project will seek to improve adolescent girls and young women's comprehensive SRHR in targeted districts, by applying a three -pronged approach: 1) Engaging adolescent girls and young women, men and boys, community -leaders and norm -setters through awareness raising and mobilization, including in schools (encouraging comprehensive sexuality education) to create a demand for comprehensive Sexual Reproductive Health (SRH) services. Through this component the project will address issues of sexual and gender -based violence (GBV), including child early and forced marriage (ECFM) and female genital mutilation and cutting (FGMC), and empower women to be able to make reproductive health choices for themselves. (2) Strengthening the health system to deliver comprehensive SRH services including family planning, contraception, legal abortion and post -abortive care.  This will be achieved by training health service providers at the health facility level, and through improving health system management capacity and quality improvement practices. Particular emphasis will be placed on ensuring services are gender -responsive, youth -friendly, and free of stigma and judgment.  (3) Promoting change in SRHR policy and practice through building the capacity of local and Canadian Women's Rights Or
