III

Climate Outlook for March - May 2019

• Timely or early onset of Belg, Gui/Genna rainy season over Ethiopia

• Seasonal rainfall totals is likely to be within average category, with tendency to above average over Gui/Genna and Belgrain benefiting regions

• Increased likelihood for hot temperature that may leading to discomfort over midland and lowland regions of Ethiopia

• Increased likelihood for favorable cropping conditions and average yield prospects

• Average rangeland conditions likely for most parts of northeast, south and southeast sectors of pastoral and agropastoral regions, but, localized areas of concern are still not ignored

• Large-levels of uncertainty remain in the evolution of El-Nino like conditions and large variability of rainfall in coming months

Extended seasonal rainfall outlook for

June – September 2019

• Normal onset of Kiremt 2019 rainy season

• Normal and stable seasonal rainfall distribution both in terms spatial and temporal scales

• At this time of the year, no reliable signal/tendency for dominance of either above or below normal.

• At least average climate conditions are highly likely to occur over Ethiopia that creates conducive conditions for seasonal agricultural practices, and pasture and water availability over pastoral regions

FAMINE EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS NETWORK 12

In conclusion,

Weak El Nino type ENSO episode is likely to continue until the beginning of Kiremt 2019.

Persistence of neutral Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), with tendency for +ve phase during kiremt 2019

There is chance for normal and stable Belg (MAM 2017) season in Ethiopia

Timely/early start of Feb/MAM rainy season, while rainfall totals are likely to be within average category, with tendency to above average over some portions of Gui/Genna and Belg rain benefiting regions

Timely onset of Kiremt rainy season, with seasonal rainfall totals are likely to be within normal category

Both FMAM and JJAS rainfall forecasts are likely to favor both agricultural and pastoral activities over Ethiopia

Social

protection?

What is social protection?

Social protection is a set of policies and programs aimed at preventing and

protecting all people against poverty, vulnerability and social exclusion,

throughout their life cycle placing a particular emphasis on vulnerable groups.

Three key components:

• Social assistance: public programs operating cash or in kind transfer that can

be conditional or unconditional (public work, school feeding, etc.).

• Social security: contributive program such as health insurance, retired pay.

• Labor market policy: are a set of programs that offer unemployment benefits, develop skills and improve productivity and employability of workers

Three key functions: protection, promotion, and transformation
