Logistics Advisor - GOAL Ethiopia



GOAL has been working in Ethiopia since 1984 implementing a range of development and nutrition response activities, including working with street children, pastoralists and rural small holders. Currently GOAL is implementing development programmes in three rural areas of Ethiopia and a Street Children's programme in the capital, Addis Ababa. Development programmes have a strong focus on health, nutrition, WatSan, and livelihoods, with particular emphases on integration of activities and community participation as a core feature of activities. Cross cutting issues include gender, the environment, child protection and HIV/AIDS. GOAL Ethiopia utilises a strengths based approach to all development activities, and increasingly so in humanitarian responses.
GOAL Ethiopia operates a complex multi-faceted emergency/humanitarian response programme that focuses on health, WatSan, nutrition and livelihood responses. Through this programme, GOAL has developed significant expertise in Community based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM), including capacity building of MoH staff, nutrition surveys and assessments and supplementary feeding activities. GOAL currently works in four regions of Ethiopia - Oromia, Amhara, SNNP, and Somali regions, and overall GOAL Ethiopia currently works in approximately 15 locations throughout Ethiopia.
Currently GOAL Ethiopia's major funders are USAID/OFDA, Irish Aid/MAPS, Irish Aid/EHAF, HPP and ERFS, EU, Comic Relief, EU/ECHO and UNOCHA and GOAL, plus a number of smaller donors. Funding for 2012 is about €11m, with total committed funding for 2012/13 of about €16m. GOAL Ethiopia employs 584 Ethiopian staff and has three full time expatriate staff, plus a small number of expatriate staff on short term contracts supporting ongoing responses.
Dolo Ado, Somali Region – Refugee Response
Since January 2011, a combination of a severe drought and insecurity in Somalia has driven over 300,000 Somalis into Ethiopia, Kenya, Djibouti and Yemen – raising the total number of registered Somali refugees in the region to over 982,000. The influx of refugees overwhelmed the already poor host communities; Ethiopia and Kenya were also suffering from the worst drought to hit the region in 60 years. Famine was declared in six areas of southern Somalia in July 2011, but humanitarian assistance in the south was extremely limited until late September 2011, when there was a massive scale-up of the response. In 2011-12 Over 115,000 refugees fled across the Somali border into Ethiopia and more than 155,000 Somali refugees are now dispersed in five camps in Dolo Ado. The refugees from Somalia arrived in an extremely vulnerable position, with many families losing children to malnutrition en route or after arrival in Ethiopia.
In Dolo Ado in mid-2011 a combination of high acute malnutrition and a clinically confirmed measles outbreak led to crude and under five mortality rates five times the rates normally seen in stable refugee camps. While the number of deaths among children under five has decreased since the dramatic levels seen at the height of the influx earlier last year, the most recent nutrition surveys have found prevailing high levels of malnutrition. Due to the acute emergency faced by new arrivals, adults are also facing higher rates of malnutrition and are being considered for entry into targeted nutrition programs, rather than as part of the normal health services.
GOAL is operational in three locations in Dolo Ado – preregistration, transit and Boramino camp. Transit and preregistration sites are in Dolo Ado town, Boramino is some 22km away. Transit and preregistration sites are where newly arrived refugees start the registration process prior to transfer to Boramino camp.

Wilaya ya Kyela iko mpakani mwa Wilaya ya Karonga nchini Malawi.
Akisoma taarifa ya Wilaya yake, Bibi Malenga alisema “hali ya mipaka ni tulivu na kueleza kuwa hivi karibuni, mnamo tarehe 11 Oktoba, 2012 walipata ugeni wa Mhe. Mganda Chiume, Waziri wa Mambo ya Nje wa Malawi na ujumbe wake akiwemo Mkuu wa Wilaya ya Karonga nchini humo.” 
Kwa mujibu wa Bibi Malenga, lengo la ziara ya Waziri Chiume lilikuwa ni kukagua mpaka wa Ziwa Nyasa kwa upande wao lakini waliona ni vizuri waje Wilayani Kyela kuona hali ya mahusiano ilivyo baina ya wananchi wa upande wa Kyela na wale wa Karonga.  
Akiendelea na ziara yake, Waziri Membe pia alipata fursa ya kuongea na wazee alipotembelea maeneo ya Katumbasongwe na Matema yaliyopo katika ufukwe wa Ziwa Nyasa.
“Tumekuja hapa kupata ushahidi wenu wa kihistoria tangu enzi ya ukoloni ambao utazisaidia Kamati zilizoteuliwa kutatua mgogoro huu ili ziweze kukusanya kumbukumbu na kufanya kazi ipasavyo,” alisema Waziri Membe.
Aidha, Waziri Membe aliwahakikishia amani na utulivu wananchi wa Kyela, na kusema kuwa “Serikali inajitahidi kadri iwezavyo kutatua mgogoro huu kwa njia ya kidiplomasia na hata kama ikiwezekana kwenda ICJ.”
Aidha, Mhe. Membe kabla ya kumaliza ziara yake ya siku mbili Mkoani Mbeya jana, pia alitembelea mipaka ya Kasumulu Katumbasongwe na Matema kwenye ufukwe wa Ziwa Nyasa, katika Wilaya ya Kyela ambapo alizungumza kwa kina na wananchi waishio ufukweni mwa Ziwa hilo.
