Acted Ethiopia
Ethiopia’s geographical and demographic profile makes it highly vulnerable to climate hazards and conflicts. Prolonged droughtand subsequent floods , combined with conflicts in Tigray (2020-2022), Amhara and Oromia, inter-ethnic and inter-clan rivalries across the country, have left 21.4 million people across Ethiopia in urgent need of humanitarian aid. In addition, Ethiopia welcome 1M+ refugees population from neighboring countries (Sudan, Eritrea, South Sudan, Somalia).
Acute Food Insecurity is widespread: most regions are in Stressed or Crisis phases, and 26 woredas are in Emergency phase nationwide. Structural deficits, including lack of basic services, notably WASH and Health infrastructures, and inflation , also aggravate the situation.
In response, Acted supports refugees, IDP, returnees, and host communities by implementing emergency and post-emergency programs, to help communities overcome and recover from crisis, and be more resilient to future shocks.
