GIZ vacancy
GIZ
GIZ supports the Ethiopian Government in colorful areas, increasingly also in the Ethiopian lowlands, which account for nearly 60 of Ethiopia’s land area. They're inhabited by more than 18 million (agro-) pastoralists, and people who create their livelihood from related professions. Due to population growth and the increasingly frequent occurrence of extreme weather events, this livelihood system is increasingly put at risk and the people, their livestock and the harvests have become increasingly vulnerable. expansive resource use like overgrazing and deforestation causes food instability, soil declination, and erosion. The result are dry valleys, in which rainwater flows quickly out of the area before being suitable to infiltrate into the soil. This farther exacerbates desertification and food insecurity. To address this issue, the Dry Valley Rehabilitation and Productive Use (DVRPU) approach was developed in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) and the Bureaus of Agriculture (BoA) in Afar and Somali regions. The Capacity Development for Strengthening Drought Resilience (CDSDR) Project has started its third phase. It promotes the DVRPU approach with a series of specialized, natural, profitable, social, institutional, and directorial measures applied to rehabilitate entire dry valleys for the benefit of the inhabitants and their animals while ensuring environmental stability. Besides upscaling of the approach in other weredas of Somali and Afar regions, it'll further expand its application to selected lowland areas of Oromia and SNNPR regions.
