Politics and governance of the 'Reform Agenda' in Ethiopia, 2018 - 2023
This book explores policies and governance initiatives in Ethiopia introduced after the federal government launched its 'Reform Agenda' in April 2018. It features studies on key topics including women’s empowerment, agrarian governance, youth (un)employment, foreign direct investment, and citizens’ charter issues. These chapters were written by Ethiopian policymakers and academic researchers as part of their professional practice. The book begins with a general introduction to the five-year project (2018 – 2023) and includes a political overview of Ethiopia’s federal governance structures and federal -regional relations. The seven empirical studies provide valuable insights into the challenges, opportunities, and conditions for improved policymaking. While the chapters highlight promising developments, they also reflect on the setbacks since 2020. Political turmoil and internal conflicts have slowed the fine-tuning and implementation of the Reform Agenda in 2023-24, underscoring the urgent need for assessment and recalibration.
