The National Electoral Board of Ethiopia (NEBE) is an independent organization established in accordance with Article 102 of the Constitution of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia. Since its establishment, the Board has organized different branch offices at both the federal and regional levels including the two administrative cities. The NEBE has conducted six national elections, four local elections, and eight referendums.

Since January 2019, in an effort to reform NEBE, the House of Peoples’ Representatives enacted a new proclamation that reduced the management board to five members that serve full time for a period of six years. According to Proclamation no.1133/2019, the board has the following powers and duties.

Oxfam International was formed in 1995 by a group of independent non-governmental organizations. They joined together as a confederation to maximize efficiency and achieve greater impact to reduce global poverty and injustice.

The name “Oxfam” comes from the Oxford Committee for Famine Relief, founded in Britain in 1942. The group campaigned for food supplies to be sent through an allied naval blockade to starving women and children in enemy-occupied Greece during the Second World War.

After the war, Oxfam continued its work, sending materials and financial aid to groups aiding poor people throughout Europe. As the situation in Europe improved, Oxfam’s attention shifted to the needs of people in developing countries.

Today, we are working in 79 countries, with thousands of partners, allies, and communities to save and protect lives in emergencies, help people rebuild their livelihoods and campaign for genuine, lasting change, keeping women's rights at the heart of everything we do.

There are 21 member organizations of the Oxfam International confederation. They are based in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Ireland, India, Italy, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Quebec, South Africa, Spain, Turkey and the United States. We also have two public engagement offices - South Korea and Sweden – that focus on raising funds and awareness about our work.

The Oxfam International Secretariat is based in Nairobi, Kenya. The Secretariat runs offices in Addis Ababa, Brussels, Geneva, New York, and Washington DC.

Over the years, the border zone between Kenya and Ethiopia experienced increased intra ethnic conflicts, animal health, and livestock marketing bottlenecks. This led to CIFA Kenya (established in 2000) to facilitate the establishments of cross border initiatives in 2004/05. Through these initiatives, CIFA gained recognition from the Ethiopian communities and authorities and in 2005 this led to the setting up and registration of CIFA Ethiopia as a National NGO and re-registered again on April 11, 2016 with the Federal Charities and Societies Agency via certificate number 1012.

The CIFA Trust (www.cifauk.org.uk), an independent charity registered in UK, was established in 2006 to broaden CIFA’s international outreach, particularly with regard to advocacy on behalf of the marginalized pastoralists, and also to strengthen CIFA’s capacity and long term sustainability in Kenya and Ethiopia.

Our strategic position in Borana Zone and linkage to several cross border partners and sister organization – CIFA Kenya gives us a big opportunity to work on cross border related issues
