Resumen
Descripción
The Development Response to
Displacement Impacts Project (DRDIP) is a World
Bank-supported regional program in the Horn of Africa
(Ethiopia, Uganda, Djibouti, and Kenya), which aims to
improve access to social services, expand economic
opportunities, and enhance environmental management for host
and forcibly displaced communities. It was initiated in 2016
for a five-year period with hundred million US dollars total
funding for Ethiopia provided by the government of Ethiopia
and the World Bank. For Phase II, DRDIP aims to improve and
strengthen the nonfarm livelihood interventions, focusing on
women and youth. This study assesses the activities
implemented under DRDIP’s nonfarm livelihood subcomponent
and provides an analysis of the nonfarm economy in
Ethiopia’s refugee-hosting areas to shape future DRDIP
interventions. Promising nonfarm livelihood options for
refugee and host communities, particularly women and youth,
are identified. The study findings offer actionable
recommendations with clearly identified entry points for
increasing the effectiveness and impact of DRDIP’s nonfarm
livelihood activities on the targeted refugees and host communities.
