Assessment Report: North Welo, South Welo and Oromia Zones of
Amhara Region
Report on an assessment mission undertaken from 5 - 15 October
2000. This report assesses the main rains, the impact of a delayed
belg and monitor relief food distribution by various
governmental agencies and NGOs. By Dechassa
Lemessa, Field Officer, UN Emergencies Unit for Ethiopia.
Findings
of a recent mission to South Wollo
According to the mission, the combination of relatively modest
levels of malnutrition and normal morbidity and mortality suggests
that, by and large, the nutrition situation in South Wollo is
currently under control. The report recommends however to
separate the distribution of blended food from the general
distribution in order to improve nutritional impact. By
Albertien van der Veen, ORHC/WHO. September 8,
2000.
