  • Linking Social Protection Schemes

    Open AccessZemzem Shigute, Christoph Strupat et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Development Studies2020

    In developing countries and in particular in sub-Saharan Africa, social protection schemes tend to operate in silos. However, schemes targeting the same geographical areas may have synergies that have not yet been examined, and which are worth scrutinising. This paper contributes to this knowledge gap by examining the joint impacts of two social protection programmes in Ethiopia, that is, the Productive Safety Net Programme and a Community Based …

  • Containing the spread of Covid-19 in Ethiopia

    Open AccessZemzem Shigute, Anagaw Derseh Mebratie et al.ARTICLEJournal of Global Health2020

    Ethiopia has a low although rising number of confirmed COVID-19 cases. Despite these low figures, \nstringent measures have been implemented since mid-March.

  • The Effect of Ethiopia’s Community-Based Health Insurance Scheme on Revenues and Quality of Care

    Open AccessZemzem Shigute, Anagaw Derseh Mebratie et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2020

    Ethiopia's Community-Based Health Insurance (CBHI) scheme was established with the objectives of enhancing access to health care, reducing out-of-pocket expenditure (OOP), mobilizing financial resources and enhancing the quality of health care. Previous analyses have shown that the scheme has enhanced health care access and led to reductions in OOP. This paper examines the impact of the scheme on health facility revenues and quality of care. This…

  • Road Infrastructure and Enterprise Dynamics in Ethiopia

    Admasu Shiferaw, Måns Söderbom et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Development Studies2015

    We analyse the relationship between road infrastructure quality and the location choice and entry size of manufacturing firms in Ethiopia. We use GIS-based panel data on town-level measures of road infrastructure and census-based panel data on firms. Our dataset covers a period of considerable improvements in road infrastructure as a result of major public investments. We find that local infrastructure is important for entry, while more extensive…

  • Dropping out of Ethiopia’s community-based health insurance scheme

    Open AccessAnagaw Derseh Mebratie, Robert Sparrow et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2015Citada por: 5Referências: 3

    Low contract renewal rates have been identified as one of the challenges facing the development of community-based health insurance (CBHI) schemes. This article uses longitudinal household survey data gathered in 2012 and 2013 to examine dropout in the case of Ethiopia's pilot CBHI scheme. We treat dropout as a function of scheme affordability, health status, scheme understanding and quality of care. The scheme saw enrolment increase from 41% 1 y…

  • Coping with shocks in rural Ethiopia

    Zelalem Yilma, Anagaw Mebratie et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Development Studies2014

    Using survey data and event history interviews undertaken in Ethiopia, we investigate which shocks trigger which coping responses and why. Relatively covariate natural and economic shocks trigger reductions in savings and in food consumption, while relatively idiosyncratic health shocks prompt reductions in savings and a reliance on borrowing. Surprisingly, across all shocks, households do not rely on gifts from family and friends, highlighting t…
