Review of current and planned adaptation action in Ethiopia
2016
The vast majority of Ethiopia’s population is dependent on crops and livestock for their livelihoods. The Government of Ethiopia has made efforts to recognize climate change as a risk in sectoral policies on agriculture, health, and energy. Most national and international programming efforts concentrate on the agricultural sector, including pastoralism, as well as disaster risk management and capacity building for government officials. The country’s Growth and Transformation Plan, Programme of Adaptation to Climate Change, and Climate Resilient Green Economy Strategy are key national roadmaps that guide these efforts. However, there are gaps in addressing vulnerabilities in specific sectors, notably health, transportation, and energy.
