BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION ‘ 1.1.Introduction apse eran CUT? Ethiopia is the second most populous country in Africa, with more {PRE SSTRPMGE the population is constituted by children below the age of 18(CSA, 2007). Though the national prevalence of HIV in Ethiopia is estimated to be 2.3% is considerable as lower than rates in other sub-Saharan countries, the number of people living with HIV and orphanages continue to grow. ‘As of 2009,estimated to haveS459139 orphans of whom 855720 are orphans due to HIV JAIDS{single point HIV prevalence, all OVC, directly or indirectly vulnerability may be linked to extreme poverty , hunger, and child labor practices among other treats , all of these is and fueled by HIV/ADS. ues fuel With 353,690 square kilometers of land area (32% of the country), Oromia represents the largest regional State. Its population was estimated at 28,067,000 in mid July 2008 the largest population size of any region (35.4% of the country’s total population). The Oromo represent the majority ethnic group in Oromiya (85%), and in the country at large. Nearly 4 million are residents of urban ‘areas with an urbanization rate of 13.8% - slightly below the national average. The percentage proportion of the Oromo has been estimated variously at 30% to 40% of the country’s total but the mid-way estimate above seems closer to the real proportion. Administratively, Oromia is divided into 17 zones, 245 Weredas, and 36 town administrations with 6500 kebele subdivisions Oromia regional State extends from the western end of the country in western Wellega to the eastern parts of eastern Hararge from 34°E latitude to 43°E latitude. Its north-south extent stretches from 4%4°north to 10?%4°North latitude. Topographically and climatically the region is diverse with sharp contrasts. The mid portion is formed by the Great Rift Valley system that divides the regional State roughly into a western third and eastern two-thirds. Oromia is a region of great physiographic diversity. Its landscape includes high and rugged ‘mountain ranges, plateaus, panoramic gorges, deeply incised river valleys, and rolling plains as well as hills and mountains rising from less than 500 meters above sea level to 4,607 meters (Mt. Batu - the highest peak of the region). Oromia is endowed with varied relief features which in turn accentuate varied and amiable climatic condition and other rich natural resource bases Target Humanitarian assistance association Canada (HAAC) is non-profit, making nonpolitical and non-governmental humanitarian organization. It is legally registered and licensed to operate in accordance with the charities and societies proclamation supported and issued on legal base.HAASC. is working to address the root causes associated to OVC ,the destitute women and girls through comprehensive support and community engagement. Humanitarian aid association is founded aiming to create access to conducive environment for physical social and psychological development of orphan and vulnerable children who are in specially difficult circumstance in Oromia regional state , focusing on particularly arid and semi-arid woredas. Humanitarian assistance association is voluntary charities organization to provide institutional care and support for vulnerable children sustainably up to provide institutional care and support for vulnerable children sustain up to adolescent stage of service for the orphans . ‘The project “target humanitarian assistance Integrated project” is located and to be implemented in Ethiopia, Oromia regional state, to improve life standards of children’s and youth adults by increasing access to medical assistance, basic education, sponsorship, and addressing the negative impacts of climate changes. ‘The overall objective of the project is to alleviate the abhorrent impacts of drought and severe poverty on Ethiopian children and Youth focusing on medical assistance, basic education, sponsorship, climate change resilience by providing aid and permanent facilities in cooperation with the donors and other humanitarian aid purposed organizations. 1.2.Statement of problem ‘There is drought in Ethiopia because of lack of rainfall in the short rainy season and a long season that began late and saw litle precipitation. £1 pia suffers from cyclical droughts which have been’ The time between these droughts is small leaving Ethiopia with little time to recover from the previous one. While drought is hitting many parts of Ethiopia, It is taking a massive toll of the country’s main harvest season Meher. Due to drought and erratic rainfall, maize and sorghum crops have failed for many farmers. These crops are the staple foods for most rural people. The drought has also caused numerous livestock death. The late onset and poor performance of the rains has resulted in poor bulg harvest prospects including a delay in the harvest time, The deterioration of food security situation has a series impact on nutrition in the affected areas. Total crop production declined significantly, Due to shortage of rain and extended drought in Ethiopia figures on actual crop yields were not general available but comparison of area planted and total production shows that yields declined significantly. The combined results of the cases make on ae ‘complicated and irrecoverable within the internal capacity. - xt “a : % Ex *x ¥ = SiEthiopia experiences a heavy burden on diseases mainly attributed to communicable infectious diseases and nutritional deficiencies. Wide spread poverty, poor nutritional status, low education level and poor access to health services have contributed to the high burden of severe health situation in the country. Malaria is the primary health problem in the country it is the leading causes of outpatient visits and responsible for 8 to 10 million annual clinical cases and a significant number of deaths in total, as much 80 percent of the health problems in the country are due to preventable communicable and nutritional diseases. These health problems are associated with low socio economic development. Access to health care and social services is also extremely poor only about 20% of Ethiopian have real access to some forms of primary care and live within few hour walk of a health center facility Health care facilities are extremely limited in the major cities and completely inadequate outside of the cities. Each day peoples are suffering and dying from the lack of sufficient health facilities, insuffi int equipment and shortage of medical supplies. ‘The education system in Ethiopia is poorly developed in terms of quality and quanti The country has one of the lowest rates of enrollment in the world. With only 53% of boys and less than 40% of girl’s enrollment, education in Ethiopia is poorly developed due to inadequate no of teachers, material and schoo! facilities, low access for schools in rural areas and High rate of dropouts caused by social &economic problems ete, On top of the ongoing out breaks of measles and meningitis, as well as sporadic cases of dysentery ‘and other existing health concerns in various parts of the region the start of the rains increases the threat of out breaks of disease such as malaria and diarrheal diseases, particularly acute water diartheas (AWD) ‘According to joint government and Humanitarian partners document during the Ist half of 2011 close to 50 Acute watery diarthea (AWD) cases were reported from Eastern Hararghe zone of Oromia region. Poor nutritional status, compounded with in adequate coverage of the routine expanded program of Immunization (EPS) has significantly contributed to the measles outbreak a total of 17.584 cases and 114 deaths were rect «din Amhara, Benishangul, Harar, Oromia, Tigray, SNNP and Somali regions. AA large scale AWD outbreak anticipated in the second half of the year 2011 the continued existence of risk factors such as low coverage of safe drinking water supply, poor hygienic and sanitary practices compounded with likely flood poses a serious threat, The situation will be further aggravated with seasonal Labouré movement and various public and religious, HE AiPreggimated 5,027,726 million people are identified to be at risk in 2011. ig ae x (Ydee : SI connorConsidering the ongoing massive measles epidemics and the likelihood of hazards that further exacerbate the situation such as flooding, malnutiti mn and population displacement, there is a need to enhance response efforts. Although the FMOH has rolled out un presented malaria reduction program which contributed to reduce mortality and morbidity: A total of 637,612 risk population in 77 Woredas in five regions have been identified. One of the major social problems in Ethiopia that requires particular attention and care Orphan and vulnerable children in Ethiopia face different type of social psychological and economic problems. However both the public and government have done very little to minimize the difficulties and problem faced OVC cither through rehabilitation mechanism or other means, Street children are mainly observed in the major urban centers mostly and sometimes are observed in small towns. A number of studies conducted in relation to street children in major towns of Ethiopia indicated that the number of street children exceeds 100000.A study reported by UNICEF also indicates the number of street children in Ethiopia is more than 185,000. 1.3.Justification ‘The situation analysis of this unit is focus on the vulnerable women and children in difficult circumstance those whom live in under poverty line, The life of destitute women and children in Oromia regional state mostly affected by manmade and natural calamity such as war, drought and famine. ‘A World Health Organization (WHO) emergency team reported the existence of “29 hospitals, 192 health centers, 895 health stations and 1070 health posts, owned by government, other Gov. and NGOs", It also estimated the number of health professionals at about 8,000 trained at one of the seven health science colleges and 18 centers providing training for midlevel health professionals. “The potential health service coverage is 70.5% and the health service utilization is 27%” There is an urban-rural difference in water sourcing and method of collection. Most urban dwellers use tap ‘water, while rural communities rely on water from a variety of sources, mainly rivers. Sanitation services are not well developed with insufficient number of latrines in the rural areas due to inadequate knowledge of personal hygiene and environmental sanitation. “The communities are practicing poor-disposal of excreta, unhygienic handling of food and utensils and poor domestic waste disposal including animal wastes” Literacy rates are significantly higher among Oromo males than females, While 36 percent of all residents of Oromia were literate in the year 2004 the rural rate was 31 percentage points lower than waste Cay, the urban rate of 72.4%. There is also significant difference in male-female rates. The female rate el (22.8%) j less than half the male’s rate of 49.4%. Only 17% of female residents of rural Oromia“, S, Se(85% of them ethnic Oromos) were literate with all of its implication for way of life, health, child bearing and rearing, maternal and child nutrition, and disease prevention. Whether this has led to @ high fertility and morbidity regime would will be investigated in the forthcoming paragraphs. On the bright side, nearly two-thirds of urban women were literate at the time of DHS 2005. ‘The prolonged La Nina conditions have affected a second consecutive raining season which resulted in the deterioration of food security situation in the draught affected areas as well as the bulg producing and sugum-receiving parts of the country. The rain situation is largely poor and characterized by delayed onset, erratic distribution and Jong dry spoils compound with poor performance of shortage cycle crops, as well as the drought induced reduction in livestock production resulted in increased cases of malnutrition in worst affected areas. ‘The late onset and poor performance of the rains has resulted in poor bulg harvest prospects including a delay in the harvest time. The anticipated poor harvest, combined with the failure of gap filling food harvests (sweet potato, vegetables, haricot beans, and maize) and increased grain prices, is expected to further exacerbate food insecurity & malnutrition particularly in areas Oromia regional states arid and semi-arid districts. A data emerges out of country indicates, it is facing significant social problems such as high level of child mortality, HIV/AIDS and poverty. The unemployment level is also overwhelming particularly in urban areas due to migration in search of better life and job. Generally, the woredas selected in east and west harage zones of Oromia regional state are agro ecologically located in arid and semi- arid areas where it is liable to recurrent drought and crop failure is prevalent. Currently as different international governmental and non-governmental organizations are reporting through different Me our country Ethiopia is the most affected nation by the result of climate change that caused the worst drought in decades of history. This drought increased more burden on East and West harage areas which is formerly susceptible to recurrent drought. As a result of this poverty displacement, family breakdown and delinquent nature of children is inevitable that results in migration, Moreover, lack of traditional social supporting institutions and mechanism also worsened the problem for orphans and vulnerable children. By taking in to consideration the above-mentioned socio-economic problem prevailing in the country, our TARGET HUMANITERIAN ASSISTANCE CANADA ASSOCIATION intends to implement a project focusing on providing me | assistance, basic education, social services and climate change resilience supports in consistency with the millennium development goals (MDGs) os ft ** and policies and laws of country. cannes1.4 Laws and policies a) Laws and Policies Related to Health Health Education shall be strengthened generally and for specific target populations through the mass media, community leaders, religious and cultural leaders, professional associations, schools and other social organizations for:- «© Inculeating attitudes of responsibility for self-care in health and assurance of safe environment. ‘© Encouraging the awareness and development of health promotive life-styles and attention to personal hygiene and healthy environment. © Enhancing awareness of common communicable and nutritional diseases and the means for their prevention. ‘© Inculcating attitudes of participation in community health development. «Identifying and discouraging harmful traditional practices while encouraging their beneficial aspects, ‘© Discouraging the acquisition of harmful habits such as cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, drug abuse and irresponsible sexual behavior. + Creating awareness in the population about the rational use of drugs.

The adoption of the FDRE Constitution was a critical step towards insuring the legal protection of orphan children. According to article 36 of the Constitution, every orphan child has the right to live, to know and be cared by his or her guardian, not to be subject to exploitative labor practice, neither be required nor permitted to perform work which is hazardous or harmful to his or her education, health or well-being to be free from cruel and inhuman treatmenfysistree con, > ix oo, [Also, as of the article, the state shall accord protection to orphans and shall encoura,establishment of special institutions to promote their adoption and support institutions that provide for their welfare, upbringing end education. With concern to ensuring the welfare of children, the FDRE has ratified the United Nation Convention on the Rights of Child (CRC) on Dec 9, 1996. The convention as its essence is a ‘bill of right’ for all children expressing what a child needs to become both a whole person and a contributing member of a society. It recognizes every child’s right to develop physically, mentally and socially to his or her fullest potential. It breaks new ground in taking a holistic approach to the survival and development of children, including helpless orphans, treating their civil, social, cultural & economic rights as elements of an interdependent package. Specifically, article 22, 23, 30 and 32- 40 of the Convention express the need for and type of special measures of protection for helpless orphan children, ‘The National Developmental Social Welfare Policy, Nov 1996, (DSWP) is also one that adopted targeting orphan children. The policy recognizes orphan children as a segment of the society whose social welfare is a priority concer. Facil sting conditions that will enable orphaned children to get the assistance they need and to eventually become self-sufficient is the area of focus of the policy. In meeting the needs of orphaned children, the policy accept institutional approach as a method that can be employed if circumstances dictate that other community based approach is not viable. ) Laws and Policies Related to Edueation ‘The 1994 Education Policy envisages: “bringing up citizens with a human outlook, country wide responsibility and democratic values having developed the necessary productive, creative and appreciative capacity in order to participate fruitfully in development and the utilization of resources and environment at large.” 4) Laws and Pt ‘The following are the fundamental policy principles that guide the equitable, sustainable and Related to Water efficient development, utilization, conservation and protection of water resources in Ethiopia. 1.

The program has reliable financial commitment from the members and if possible from donors. 3. The implement organization has already established smooth cooperative relationship from any relevant stakeholders. 4, The Oromia regional government, sector offices and community organizations are have positive altitude to ward success full achievement of the project goal. 7.4, Risks Favorable policy environment for charity organizations, the required amount of fund will be secured, and the cooperation of all funding agencies including government decision makers is the most promising assumptions there. However, there may be some risk factors that could influence the project and become beyond the immediate control. ‘This includes. There is a risk, that potential donors may not pursue the financial support as required and on time for interventions. To minimize this risk, however, great care will be given to the selection of funding agencies and commitment of the board of directors and founding members of the organization. Failure of one or more of the above positive assumption will make implementation on the program either difficult or impossible. Lack of collaboration and response from stakeholders. Shortage of manpower and facilities - Sudden change of government policies Stake holder’s analysis ‘Those organizations working in area of child welfare and government sectors will a stake in the implementation of the project. For instance the following are the stakeholders who are responsible to contribute their parts as initially planned. = Oromia women, children and youth association affairs bureau is responsible to coordinate the activities related to OVC support Oromi finance and economic development bureau responsible for planning financial activities to monitor. ~The women children and youth’s affairs office and sectors participate and organize the selection of beneficiaries and follow up the implementation of the project. _ssistance cy, KH mm, uv8.
