CA-3-P006133001 2026-07-10T06:32:42 March 2018 – Ethiopia is facing a fourth consecutive year of drought affecting large areas in the south and east of the country. Recent assessments indicate that almost 8 million people require emergency food assistance and 3.85 million children face acute malnutrition. More than 6 million people are without access to safe drinking water. The effects of the drought have exacerbated ethnic conflicts along the border between the Oromia and Somali regions, displacing an estimated 1.5 million people over the past year. With GAC’s support, CARE Canada is providing water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) and livelihoods assistance to an estimated 36,000 displaced persons and host community members in the badly drought-affected Somali region of Ethiopia. Project activities include: (1) the rehabilitation and improvement of safe water sources; (2) the construction of communal latrines; and (3) providing cash-for-work opportunities.
