In the context of recurrent drought shocks and other climate stresses, and in the aftermath of conflict that has affected different parts of Ethiopia, the country is struggling to address a sizeable humanitarian challenge alongside the need to sustain support to those living in chronic and severe poverty. This study draws on a review of policy documentation, interviews with a range of government and donor officials working in and on Ethiopia, and primary qualitative fieldwork in conflict-affected districts to assess the responsiveness of social protection and humanitarian systems to conflict shocks in Ethiopia. The research was carried out in three woredas (districts) of Amhara, Oromiya, and Somali regions in 2022.
