Evaluating Ethiopia’s Environmental Management Strategy
Ethiopia has pursued a manufacturing-led development strategy since the early 2000s, achieving substantial growth and poverty reduction. However, little attention is paid to the environmental costs of these results. Relying on the review of environmental policies and on 22 in-depth interviews with public and private stakeholders, we assess whether the existing command-and-control approach to environmental management is delivering on its promises,…
Getting Ahead of the Game
Groundwater management is highly complex, with many users sharing the same resource often with limited understanding of their interconnectedness. Behavioral experiments (games) that simulate real-life common-pool resource use have shown promise as an experiential learning tool for improving resource governance. This study pilots an experiential learning intervention in Ethiopia using a groundwater game to help raise awareness of groundwater over-…
Demand and supply constraints of credit in smallholder farming
Credit constraint is often considered as one of the key barriers to the adoption of modern agricultural technologies and low agricultural productivity in low- and middle-income countries. Past research and much of the policy discourse associate agricultural credit constraints with supply-side factors, such as limited access to credit sources or high costs of borrowing. However, demand-side factors, such as risk-aversion and financial illiteracy a…
Seasonal variation in maternal dietary diversity is reduced by small‐scale irrigation practices
Some agricultural practices, such as irrigation, have the potential to buffer seasonal dietary gaps and through increased production and consumption improve diets, particularly of the rural poor relying on subsistence farming but also for rural and urban households purchasing irrigated produce on local markets. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of seasonality and irrigation on women's diet in rural Ethiopia. Using a longitudinal study design…
