Challenges encountered over the year • Budget deficiency encounters due to price fluctuation during implementation as opposed to the situation during planning. • The attempts to raise funds from organizations like the Embassy of the Czech Republic, CFLI Canada, African Women’s Development Fund (AWDF) and Project Hope was not rewarding as per our expectations. However, our proposals to Union of Ethiopian Women Charitable Associations (UEWCA) were successful. • NMHDO in partner with ICCO had planned to deliver a tractor for 119 women farmers at Laelay Mayichew Woreda and half of the price was paid for the purchase of the John Deer tractor. However, the tax payment, which we had not regarded during planning has stuck all the process and even devaluated our trust in the area.

Summary of Achievements to-date Implemented 53 project targeting women, youths and children. • Supported over 1047 OVCs through education and other support initiatives • Addressed a total of 4514 women and their families through IGA initiatives and improved their • livelihoods. Established ICT center in High Schools, and supported three Primary schools with full mini- • media materials and solar panels Promoted Green Economy by scaling up the production of high value crops through small scale • irrigation on agriculture-based income diversification thereby achieving improved livelihoods to over 1280 underprivileged women. Rehabilitated over 100 hectare of mountain plateau which had been severely ruined •

Final Message • The overall accomplishment in the year went very well as per the planned activities of the organization holding promissory accomplishments for the future as well. • NMHDO had put efforts to cope up with the escalating demands of intervention versus the staggering financial constrains.

• Unlike the existing strains, however, NMHDO managed to build good relationships with different international and local organizations as well as established good presence with regional states, particularly with Tigray government bureaus and offices to mobilize resources effectively and to create harmonious working environments. These strategies by far have contributed to the success of the organization.
