  3. EG&T DO Projects

  4. “Pastoral Ethiopia” large grazing areas, irregular climate Context: “Three Ethiopias” “Productive Ethiopia” larger landholdings predictable climate fertile soils 45m “Hungry Ethiopia” irregular climate degraded soils small landholdings 15-20m 12-14m

  5. USAID/Ethiopia strategy has three interlinked Focus Areas that drive food security and nutrition objectives COMPONENT 2 COMPONENT 1 Growth-led Food Security Linking the Vulnerable Sustainable livelihoods for chronically vulnerable Agricultural growth 60% 30% • Link vulnerable productive Ethiopia to market opportunities • Link vulnerable populations into “Productive Ethiopia” COMPONENT 3 Policy development and Learning Policy and Capacity Enabler 10% Cross Cutting: Nutrition, Climate Change Governance

  6. CAADPPolicy and Investment Framework Priority Investments – GOE Platform Programs • Agricultural Growth Program (AGP)- agricultural productivity and market access for key crop and livestock products in the productive highlands. • Geographic Area: 83 woredas in Productive Ethiopia • Five years (2011-15), $320 million program • Donors: World Bank; USG; Canadian International Development Agency [CIDA]; Spain; Netherlands; Finland; UNDP; Global Agriculture and Food Security Program [GAFSP] • 2) Sustainable Land Management Program (SLMP)-  to improve the livelihood of land users while • restoring ecosystem functions and ensuring sustainable land management.  • Geographic Area: National.  • Five years (2012-16), $150 million program • Donors: World Bank; USG; Finland). • 3) Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP)-GoE’s overall umbrella Food Security Program (FSP).  • Geographic Area: 300 woredas in Hungry Ethiopia plus parts of Pastoral Ethiopia.  • Five years (2010-14), $1.8 billion program • Donors: USG, World Bank, CIDA, Swiss International Development Agency, Irish Agency for International Development [Irish AID], United Kingdom Department for International Development [DfID], Denmark, EU and World Food Program [WFP]. • 4) Household Asset Building Program (HABP)- to graduate 80 percent of PSNP beneficiaries by 2014. • Geographic Area: 300 woredas in Hungry Ethiopia plus parts of Pastoral Ethiopia. • Five years (2010-14), $648 million • Donors: World Bank, Irish AID, DfID, CIDA and USG • Platform Programs in Other Key Areas: National Nutrition Strategy (NNS) and Climate Resilient Green Economy Strategy (CRGE)

  7. Asset depletion/ Food insecurity Asset accumulation/ Food security Stable livelihood through market integration PUSH PULL “Push and Pull” Hypothesis • “PUSH” Model will build assets for chronically vulnerable HHs to graduate into value chain efforts. Activities: • Access to financial services • Asset transfers (on credit) • Livelihood and NRM training • “PULL” Model will bring chronically vulnerable HHs with built assets into value chains so that they can build sustainable livelihoods. Activities: • Contracts with private sector players to source from/employ vulnerable HHs Success metric: # HHs graduated Success metric: # HHs linked to growth

  8. 1 Growth-led Food Security 2 Linking the Vulnerable • Conduct nutrition assessments to improve nutrition impact, analyses to understand impact and cost-effectiveness of various value chain interventions on child malnutrition • Strengthening capacity of nutrition practitioner/policy makers 3 Policy and Capacity Enabler Integrating Nutrition FTF nutrition investment – ENGINE Project • Nutrition impact a key criteria in prioritizing value chains and PPP with PepsiCO (1,2) • Nutrition education/behavior change programs (1,2) • Focus on increasing incomes of vulnerable populations, particularly women • Address wasting and micronutrient deficiencies • Coordinate PSNP activities with those of the National Nutrition Program
