Context Global and regional response to chronic emergencies IGAD IDDRSI Global Climate Change Alliance Ethiopia is progressing Economic growth Social services Social protection Disaster Risk Management Underweight and stunting declined (32% & 23%) 2000-2011 But challenges remain Stunting remains at 44.4% (and above 50% in some districts) Trends (population, farm size), seasonality (belg retreat/ CC), weather patterns, recurrent shocks and inequitable economic growth Variable quality of service delivery – education, health, WASH Policy and strategy constraints - lack of systems thinking and development

Population Population & Food Security in Ethiopia 2001-2012

Strengthened Systems to Deliver Resilience Defined Ability to anticipate, adapt and recover from shocks Requires access to: Basic Social Services Safety nets Livelihood Support DRR/ DRM Basic Social Services Safety Nets Livelihood Support DRR / DRM Food & Nutrition Security Food Security & Nutrition Resilience Ability to anticipate, adapt and recover from shocks without malnutrition spikes or damaging coping strategies Strengthened systems that accommodate shocks by scaling-up food and nutrition response

Resilience Strategy Overview UNICEF, WFP and FAO are exploring complementary ways of working to achieve: improved food security & nutrition outcomes improved quality of support to the PSNP and GoE flagships
