EDRMC organized a Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Gender Mainstreaming workshop for 2-4 June 2022, to sensitize the federal and regional experts on mainstreaming gender in DRM activities. As expected in the EU DDRM project contract documents, the implemented activities in the five regions of Amhara, Oromia, Sidama, Somalia, and SNNP require periodic DRM and gender mainstreaming trainings and guidelines to build the technical and strategic teams to guide overall project implementation throughout the period. The EU DDRM action and documents envisaged that �Intervention packages to address the specific needs Result 1 Output 1.3 when climatic shocks occur while taking into account the gender aspects and the needs and interests of peoples living with disabilities as well as for conflict resolution mechanisms and package intervention for the integration of climate induced IDPs in the host communities�.

Ethiopia DRM Policy_ August 2022 |
Disaster Risk Management (DRM) policy in Ethiopia has matured from its origins as an emergency relief mechanism in the 1970s to a system whose stated intention is now the management of disaster risk. Just recently, the Ethiopian Disaster Risk Management Commission (EDRMC) shifted from the Ministry of Peace to the Prime Minister�s Office (PMO). Moreover, the existing DRM policy is under revision and awaiting approval from the Council of Ministers. While the policy framework for DRM has continually adapted in response to the country�s changing political and economic dynamics and to reflect an evolving understanding of disaster management (1993, 2013, and 2022), the institutional arrangements for delivering that policy have not kept pace and in some areas started to decline. In order to capture a baseline as the EDRMC is repositioned under the PMO and the existing policy is under revision, the evaluation team conducted a DRM policy Institutional Architecture Assessment (IAA) from March-May, 2022. The IAA examines the key systems, processes, and relationships that influence policy development and implementation by examining the country�s multi-sector capacity to drive and participate in policy reforms and implementation. The IAA framework has six core policy elements and three-to-five sub-elements under each core element. The core elements include: 1) Guiding Policy Framework, 2) Policy Development and Coordination, 3) Inclusivity and Stakeholder Consultation, 4) Evidence-based Analysis, 5) Policy Implementation, and 6) Mutual Accountability. |
