This report covers the work and impact of World Vision Ethiopia from October 1st, 2022, to September 30th, 2023. During this period, our transformative projects reached over 8.5 million people (out of which 6 million are children), showcasing our impactful efforts in transforming the lives of vulnerable children and communities across Ethiopia.
World Vision Ethiopia began its first intervention in Ethiopia in 1971 with relief and opened the Ethiopia office in 1975. Relief, rehabilitation, and small community development projects dominated the decade that followed. During the 1984/85 drought, World Vision Ethiopia participated in a massive relief operation that saved the lives of millions of people.
Starting its operation with emergency intervention in some parts of Ethiopia, World Vision currently operates in 48 Area Programs (APs) implementing effective programmes, such as Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Integrated Livelihoods and Nutrition Security (ILaNS), Child Protection and Participation (CPP), Education and Life Skills (EdLS), Humanitarian and Emergency Affairs (HEA), Community Engagement and Sponsorship Plan (CESP) as well as grants projects.
