Ethiopia

In the first half of 2025, the Ethiopia Emergency Shelter Non-Food Items (ES/NFI) Cluster faced significant challenges driven by ongoing displacement, insecurity, climate shocks, and limited funding. By June, around 173,000 people had been displaced across six regions, with approximately 46.5% displaced due to conflicts, and the majority of the displaced being in the Oromia region. The remaining displacements resulted from natural disasters and climate-related shocks.

For many IDPs in Amhara, Western Oromia, and Tigray, returning home remains impossible due to unresolved territorial disputes and persistent insecurity. While recent access to a few kebeles in Tigray has seen positive development, MIRA assessments have highlighted that humanitarian support, including shelter repairs, remains a critical priority.
