<p>DFID’s development support is improving millions of peoples’ lives in Ethiopia
by supporting basic services for the poorest; promoting job creation, particularly
for women; tackling female genital mutilation and early child marriage which ruins
lives; and boosting people’s nutrition and ability to cope with natural shocks.</p><br
/><p>DFID does not have programmes that specifically target those affected by resettlement,
nor does DFID fund resettlement programmes in the Omo Valley or elsewhere in Ethiopia.
However since 2011, DFID, alongside other donors in Ethiopia, has visited resettlement
sites, including in South Omo, to view implementation against international good practice.
We have found no evidence of forced resettlement, but we have concerns about the level
of consultation, speed of implementation and respect for international good practices
on resettlement. We have regularly raised these concerns with the Government of Ethiopia.
