Course  #1:  Project  Planning  for  Interna1onal  Health  &  Development  •  Bordering  Eritrea  to  the  north,  Djibou>  and  Somalia  to  the  

east,  Sudan  and  South  Sudan  to  the  west,  and  Kenya  to  the  south,  Ethiopia  is  the  most  populous  landlocked  country  in  the  world  

•  With  almost  80  million  inhabitants,  it  also  is  the  second  most-­‐populated  country  in  Africa  but  remains  largely  rural  

•  Having  never  been  colonialized  and  with  a  history  that  dates  back  to  the  origins  of  mankind,  Ethiopia  is  culturally  unique  but  extremely  poor  (ranked  173  out  of  187  countries  on  the  Human  Development  Index)  and  shares  many  problems  and  challenges  facing  modern  Africa

•  The  Ethiopian  government  has  long  maintained  an  open-­‐door-­‐policy,  which  allows  humanitarian  access  and  protec>on  to  those  entering  the  country  

•  While  a  significant  number  of  urban  refugees  live  in  Addis  Ababa,  the  vast  majority  of  the  forced  migrants  are  spread  across  18  camps  distributed  along  border  areas  in  all  parts  of  the  country
