This project will respond to the nutritional needs of IDP and host communities in Oromia, Afar, and Amhara Regions, who have been affected by prolonged drought, food insecurity, and recent conflicts. Continued drought and lack of clean water and food among IDPs and host communities has led to the development of both severe and moderate acute malnutrition among children under 5 and pregnant and lactating women. In addition, the influx of IDPs into the target woredas has put a strain on existing host community resources and health facility. CARE proposes a six-month CMAM intervention to respond to the needs through building local capacity in terms knowledge and skill to implement CMAM and ensuring consistent availability of supplies by providing logistic support. The proposed project will also identify inaccessible sites and organize outreach nutrition services in order to reach remote seated commutes with appropriate CMAM services. CARE targeted a total of 11 woredas in Oromia, Afar and Amhara. While targeting woredas, priority was given to woredas with IDP population in Orormia lowlands and newly formed woredas in Afar and Amhara. The proposed woredas under each region are: Kurfa Chelle and Goro gutu in East hararghe, Miesso, Doba, Chiro Zuria and Gumbi Bordodie in West Hararghe, Dulecha and Buremedaity in Afar and Ebinat, Meketewa and Sedemujja in south Gonder zone of Amhara region. Proposed areas of intervention have been discussed with the ENCU at Federal and Regional levels and they are among those prioritized with the coming allocation.
