Advancing institutional solutions in the Central, Southern, and Sidama regions of Ethiopia involves strengthening governance structures, promoting community participation, and implementing sustainable development initiatives. By establishing effective institutions and governance mechanisms, these regions can better address challenges related to resource management, agriculture, infrastructure, and social services. Encouraging collaboration between government agencies, local communities, and other stakeholders is key to creating inclusive and impactful solutions that promote economic growth, social welfare, and environmental sustainability in these regions.
For this reason, the Alliance of Bioversity and CIAT organized a workshop between May 15-18, 2024 in collaboration with Inter AIDE, a local NGO known as Rural Community Based Development Initiative Association (RCBDIA) and the Ethiopian Landscape Restoration Platform (ELaRP). It brought together more than 40 participants from Alliance Bioversity and CIAT, Inter Aide, RCBDIA and the Bureau of Agriculture of Central and Southern Ethiopia Regions. The workshop was facilitated by Zenebe Adimassu and Getamesay Demeke. The workshop was officially opened by Ato Admassu Awoke, vice head of the bureau of Agriculture of the Southern Ethiopia Region.
