Background
Founded in 1937, Plan is an international, humanitarian, child-centered development organization without religious, political or governmental affiliation which works in more than 71 countries around the world, including Ethiopia. Child sponsorship is the basic foundation of the organization.
Plan’s current programs in Ethiopia focuses on early survival and development of children; a better childhood development and education for all; protection of children from violence; and emergency response and recovery program, that we implement in Amhara, Oromia ,SNNP and Gambella Regional States and Addis Ababa City Administration. Common to these, issues of gender and disability are also integrated and mainstreamed in all programs.
The ongoing weather phenomenon with an increased in variability, making it difficult to predict its devastating impact - severe drought in East African countries lead millions of people to emergency food aid, shortage of water and an adverse effect on the education system. Ethiopia, more than 80% of the population live in rural areas and rely on rain-fed agriculture for their livelihood, continues to experience a potentially record-breaking El Niño induced global climate change - the nation's worst drought in 30 years. The drought increases the risk of water-related disease outbreaks, particularly acute & moderate malnutrition, diarrhea, malaria, trachoma and scabies especially among children under 5, according to the UNOCHA. Around 10.2 million people of which 60% - children and lactating women are still in need of emergency humanitarian assistance in an expense of El Niño pressed drought in Amhara, Oromia, Afar, Tigray, Somali and SNNP regional state so far.
As a child focus humanitarian organization, Plan International Ethiopia initiated a 14-month phased emergency response program from November 2015 to December 2016. Priority response sectors include Nutrition, WASH, Livestock Lifesaving Support, Food Security and Livelihoods and transition into a mixed recovery and resilience building phase, focusing on food security and livelihoods in its operational areas of Amhara, Oromia and SNNP regional state.
