ETH IOM Phase II Durable Solutions 2022-2026
Through enhanced community-based planning and a whole-of-society approach, Switzerland aims to contribute to the protection, socio-economic recovery, and peaceful co-existence of Displacement Affected Communities (DACs) in the Somali Region (SR). Three UN agencies will collaborate on the implementation. This project supports the new SR Durable Solutions (DS) Strategy and is consistent with the Government of Ethiopia's Strategic Plan to Address Internal Displacement.

- Target communities are supported to voluntarily return, relocation/resettlement, and (re)integrate through the implementation of community-based planning and multi-sectoral recovery interventions aimed at building community cohesion and resilience
- Enhanced economic status of the vulnerable members in the DACs through facilitated opportunities for livelihood diversification options through on-and off-farm interventions and increased access to finance
- Strengthened area level spatial planning to ensure sustainable re-integration of DACs for improved access to Housing Land and Property (HLP)
- Government’s capacity in mainstreaming DS in its programs is enhanced
- IDPs looking to return and/or relocate are identified and targeted assistance is provided to facilitate safe, and dignified movements from locations of displacement, with particular focus on vulnerable groups
- Community-based planning is carried out to inform area-based multi-sectoral interventions to facilitate (re)integration in areas of settlement and to strengthen community structure
- DACs have equitable and better access to economic opportunities that allows livelihood diversification and other potential pathways towards climate change adaptation and mitigation
- Improved access to market and better income at household to mitigate the impact of shocks through off-farm livelihoods
- Revised legal frameworks and policy tools for improved institutional capacity to respond to the longer-term impacts of displacement affected communities
- Government capacity on early warning and monitoring systems is developed to strengthen mitigation and response to shocks
- Applied planning instruments for improved access to land information, development opportunities and access to housing
- Training and officials' study trips to project sites are facilitated to reinforce regional government capacity to mainstream DS
- Spatial profile assessment conducted by UN-Habitat in 2021, and joint UN assessment (IOM, FAO, UN-Habitat) provided a snap shot for development planning for the area. Several intervention options were developed, including plans for local re-integration
- The SR government capacity in mainstreaming DS was maintained and enhanced, which can be exemplified by the strong leadership that showed in finalizing the DS Strategy 2022-2025
- Organisation internationale des migrations
- International Organization for Migration (IOM) will be the contracting partner with Donors. A consortium of UN agencies: IOM will sign a UN to UN agreement with Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and UN-Habitat.

Contexte | Ethiopia hosts one of the highest numbers of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) globally, with 5.1 million in 2022. The SR has been hosting IDPs from within and outside the region for many years. In 2022, a total of 932,568 IDPs were identified at 457 sites. Drought, floods, conflict, and violence are identified as the main displacement causes. Ethiopia is facing one of the worst droughts of the past decade, which is affecting about 8.1 million people living in the lowlands of the country. Due to the ongoing drought, IDPs in the SR who are mostly living in a protracted displacement situation are particularly affected, and about 1 million livestock have died in the region already. East and West Hararghe are among the drought-affected zones of the Oromia Region, and, moreover, these are woredas still experiencing challenges due to the conflict-induced displacements of 2017/18. Through SDC and its partners’ technical support, the SR Government was able to launch a new DS Strategy. The first of its kind in Ethiopia, the Strategy provides a framework that seeks to solve the widespread displacement of people. |
Objectifs | The overall goal is to contribute to DS through improved conditions for sustainable socio-economic recovery and peaceful coexistence of DACs, with particular attention to the most vulnerable groups, and strengthened local government capacity in responding to the needs of internal displacement. |
