The programme is managed by four teams: Livelihoods and Humanitarian, Governance and Security, Human Development, and Wealth Creation and Climate Change. Between them, these teams aim to protect the most vulnerable Ethiopians from shocks, consolidate development gains, and help Ethiopia to achieve MDG-related targets. DFID is seeking to make our aid more transformational, ensuring that we achieve the best possible value for money from UK development assistance.
The Livelihood and Humanitarian Team works on programmes and policy dialogue which help poor and vulnerable households to meet their basic needs and achieve food security. This includes social protection for the chronic / extreme poor; bringing peace and development to the Somali region; and humanitarian programming in response to seasonal peaks in food insecurity.
