ADDIS ABABA – The development policy reorientation makes it likely for Ethiopia to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, stated UNSDCF.
According to the recently released United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) (2020-2025), Ethiopia is transforming to meet its changing development aspirations and the demands of the future.
“The country embarked on a major reorientation of development policy embodied in the Home-Grown Economic Reform and the Ten-Year Perspective Development Plan (2020-2030),” the Framework emphasized.
“These changes make it more likely that Ethiopia will be able to achieve the SDGs, especially if it can navigate successfully through a cluster of six factors tied closely to the structural transitions underway in the country: A successful – and peaceful – transition to democracy, successful economic reforms that yield transformational results, faster progress in ensuring gender equality and empowering women and girls, coping structurally with climate change, exiting a vicious cycle of recurring humanitarian crises and achieving a step change in trans-boundary cooperation.”
