Ethiopia
Why are we in Ethiopia? Ethiopia is particularly vulnerable to climate-related shocks, such as droughts and floods, with over 80% of the rural population dependent on rain-fed agriculture. It faces the added challenges of hosting over 867,000 refugees from other countries, as well as both recent and ongoing localised conflicts.
The rains returned to Ethiopia, but its crisis is far from over
