Action for Development, Christian Aid, and Inter-Church
Organization for Development Cooperation commissioned this study.
They are all active in Wollaita, one of the most densely populated
areas of Ethiopia. It examines the development interventions of the
last four and a half decades from the point of view of three key
determinants of poverty and destitution: population dynamics and
land shortage, urbanisation and commercialisation, and livelihood
diversification. The interventions are found to have largely failed
to address these key determinants; and the study suggests that a
considerable change of policy is needed to put these determinants
at centre stage and to accelerate the pace of development.
Dessalegn Rahmato won the 1999 Prince Claus Award in recognition of
significant achievements in the field of research and development.
He is a Senior Research Fellow at the Forum for Social Studies, and
was formerly its Executive Director. He has published on land and
agrarian issues, food security, environmental policy, and poverty
in Wollaita. His current research is on civil society and
democratisation.
