1. INTRODUCTION

The Lowlands livelihood Resilience Project (LLRP) is a SIX year program that will be implemented
from 2019 to 2025. LLRP will be funded by International Development Association (IDA),
International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and beneficiary community contribution. The
total project cost is USD 451 million, of which USD 350 million mixed grant (USD 70 million) and
credit (USD 280 million) from IDA, USD 90 million from IFAD, and the remaining USD 11 million
from beneficiary communities. The program was approved by IFAD’s and Bank’s Executive Board in
September 12, 2019 and May 29, 2019, respectively and became effective as of November 21, 2019. It
will be implemented in 100 pastoral and agro pastoral woredas of the six regions (36 in Somali, 20
in Afar, 18 in Oromiya, 9 in SNNPR, 9 in Benishangule Gumuz and 8 in Gambella).

The project seeks to increase resilience including: (i) absorptive capacity, through rangeland and
natural resource management interventions, strategic investments and improved basic social service
delivery, which will help communities and pastoral and agro-pastoral system to absorb drought
shocks and reduce asset losses, (ii) adaptive capacity, through livelihood improvement and by
helping beneficiaries adopt climate smart agriculture and investing in research systems that will
contribute towards better adapting to changing climate; and (iii) transformative capacity, through
market linkages, small scale irrigation, and livelihood diversification, that provide a basis for more
fundamental socioeconomic changes and help beneficiary reduce their dependence on rain fed
agricultural system.

To achieve this, the project will combine three complementary layers of investments. Component
one focuses on improving the natural resource endowment and financing strategic investment;
component two improves public service delivery and supports market access to optimize the
utilization of investments made in the first component and diversification to reduce pressure off
natural resources;

And component three builds the capacity of institutional environment and supports social services
delivery to ensure long term livelihoods sustainability.

This project will build on the long-standing experience of the Pastoral Community Development
Project (PCDP) for inclusive development through CDD-oriented service delivery, the Regional
Pastoral Livelihoods Resilience Project (RPLRP) and other related projects under the IGAD’s
Drought Disaster Resilience Sustainable Initiatives (IDDRSI) livelihoods resilience framework.

2
Further emphasis will be put on rangeland and natural resource management, livelihood improvement
and diversification and market access aspects to enhance the livelihoods resilience dimensions of the
interventions.

2. PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The Project Development Objective is to Improve Livelihood Resilience of Pastoral and Agro-
Pastoral Communities in Ethiopia.

The spatial coverage of the component activities is for Gambella Regional state with 8 project
districts. These 8 project districts/woredas are expected to be addressed via the 3 rangeland clusters
made available to manage potential resources and serve PAP communities vested with customary and
conventional rights of uses.

3.1.1. Integrated Rangeland Management Planning Sub-component

The term integration is universally used to underscore the inter-connected and inter-dependent
management of different elements of a given subject matter and the synergetic moves that eventually
come-out when events in a system precedes and/or succeeds to each other in a complementary
manner.

Strategic interventions in rangeland development and management cycle basically rely on strictly
participatory approaches of developing natural resources and capacities of primary stakeholders. It is
due to such a realistic precondition that RMIPs are supposed to be formulated through different and
logically interdependent planning stages and operational steps. Under sub-component 1.1 of IRDM,
every activity cannot be treated independent of the other. Rather, the outputs of the preceding activity
are inputs of the succeeding management action. In general, integrated rangeland planning will
involve the step-by-step implementation of various activities; all together will end up with minimum
2 formulated RMIPs for subsequent detail studies and/or investment. Major activities constituted in

4
 the planning phase, however, include the following five action points, and the details are summarized
below.

3.1.2. Supporting Strategic Investments

Following the participatory formulation of the RMIPs, two basic and mutually interdependent
categories of management actions of rangeland resources are supposed to be implemented in an
interrelated link that activities under each initiative positively feed to each other. Rangeland
Management and pasture improvement initiatives and strategic investments focusing on development
of basic public infrastructures such as: (i) water resources, (b) small-scale irrigation schemes and (iii)
spot improvements (like roads, bridges and other cross-structures). Likewise, other public economic

5
investments include primary and secondary livestock markets, veterinary clinics, etc.) Constitute the
two complementary intervention areas.

A) Rangeland Management and Pasture Improvement

Major intervention areas under this initiative include management actions related to sets of activities
such as rangeland rehabilitation, soil and water conservation (SWC), gully control and stabilization,
soil moisture retention, forage and pasture development, and rangelands afforestation measures.
Investments that are believed to support such initiatives such as; establishment and/or
rehabilitation/upgrading of nurseries with objectives of producing tree and forage seedlings, and
supplies of agro-forestry inputs will be considered as part of the overall intervention.

B) Supporting Strategic Investments

In the project documents, the concept strategic investment has displayed to show the spatial
orientation of basic public economic investments to serve the most underserved communities through
creating conducive environments to access to key resources. The new concept, “rangeland as an entry
point of project intervention” has also been underlined to rehabilitate, conserve and develop key
resources of PAP areas (wet lands, dry season grazing reserves, and potential areas of water
reservoirs) along livestock mobility routes and across the traditional rangeland units. To come across
with such target areas, project districts/woredas have been selected in response to the primary criteria
of creating geographically interconnected rangeland units and form the so called rangeland clusters.

3.1.3. Conflict Management and Secure Access to Key Resources

Climate change is driving conflicts, especially around access to key resources (water, pasture,
migration routes) in the Lowlands. Conflict, resulting in the loss of key grazing lands and water
resources and limiting access to key natural resources, undermines the resilience of pastoral systems
in PAP areas of Ethiopia. In response to such situations, the sub-component entitled under conflict
management is expected to improve community and institutional capacity to address conflict related
problems and help communities adapt to a changing climate.. While attempting to address conflict
related challenges, it is quite advisable to think of integrated approaches so that, at least the most
interrelated factors, could be tackled. Likewise, therefore, sub-component 1.3 tries to respond to
conflict challenges of PAP areas through implementation of at least five interrelated and
complementary activities stated below. These include:

 Conflict analysis and mapping

 Identification of institutional setups of customary institutions, and accordingly, conduct
appropriate training sessions in response to identified capacity gaps
 Facilitating socially and spatially cross-boundary platforms
 Supporting and facilitating policy dialogues
 Supporting capacity building and research initiatives

3.1.4 Environmental and Safeguard Considerations

Respective to each and every sub-project of strategic investments (particularly those of water
resource development, small-scale irrigation schemes development, and roads and bridges including
other cross-structures), environmental and social safeguard elements have been considered as one of
the shelf project screening criteria. In the development processes of annual work plan and budget
(AWPB) documents too, certain aspects of risk mitigation are considered.
