EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Background
The Government of Ethiopia (GoE) has given emphasis to ensuring faster and sustained
development of the industrial sector, as envisioned in the Growth and Transformation Plan
(GTP). The GTP seeks to consolidate the positive development outcomes attained in the last
decade to bring about broad-based and transformative structural changes required to stir the
economy on rapid growth path toward becoming a middle income country by 2025. This
development goal is especially anchored on stimulating rapid growth and structural
transformation of the agricultural and industrial sectors in ways that enhance wealth creation and
expansion of employment opportunities.
As development tools, Industrial Zones (IZs) have been used in several countries to help
stimulate economic development by attracting local and foreign direct investment (FDI),
enhancing competitiveness, and facilitating export-led growth. Through the IZ development
program, the GoE intends to create favorable conditions for private sector and also address
binding constraints in priority industries in potentially suitable towns and cities of the country.
Accordingly, as of recent times, the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) is striving to establish
Industrial Zones that are thought to facilitate and enhance the transformation. The Government in
collaboration with the International Development Association (IDA) of the World Bank is
spearheading an Industrial Zone Development program through the Competiveness and Job
Creation (CJC) Project which is implemented with funds contributed by GoE, the IDA and other
development partners.
The development of the Kilinto Industrial Zone (KIZ) is intended to contribute to job creation by
attracting investments and improving enterprise competitiveness. It is located at about 20 kms
distance from the city centre in the south eastern part of Addis Ababa in Woreda 9 and 10 of
Akaki- Kaliti Sub city, one of the 10 sub cities in Addis Ababa.
Overview of the Project
The project can be described as one of a Mixed Use Industrial Complex where the desired
industrial/manufacturing development is implemented in association with essential business
offices, commercial, customs, recreation and other infrastructure developments to make it a state
of the art Industrial Park. As per the feasibility study and the master plan, four main categories
of industries namely, Food and Beverage, Furniture and Fixtures, Pharmaceutical and Medical,
Electronic/electronics and other miscellaneous manufacturing plants have been recommended
for the Kilinto IZ. The two major categories of industries in KIZ (c.89.9%) will be food and
beverages and pharmaceutical and medical.
Objectives of the RAP
Potential social impacts related to land acquisition such as loss of livelihood or loss of access to
economic assets can only be addressed properly and adequately by the preparation of a
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) which is the subject of this study. The objectives of the
Resettlement Plan are, therefore, to prevent, minimize and/or at least mitigate the adverse
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page viii
socioeconomic impacts associated with the implementation of the industrial zone development
project. It is to provide a plan for resettlement and rehabilitation of the PAPs so that their losses
will be compensated and their standard of living will be improved or at least restored to the pre-
project levels. To achieve these objectives the plan provides the compensation and rehabilitation
measures required so that the income earning potential of individuals will be restored and their
livelihoods will sustain.
This RAP indicates income restoration measures for the PAPs, and establishes methodologies for
compensation estimate and payment. Therefore, the RAP will facilitate the rehabilitation of
Project Affected Persons and the restoration of their livelihoods. It will help to protect PAPs
from becoming impoverished due to the implementation of the Industrial Zone Development
project.
This RAP is complemented by Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) that has
been provided as a separate report which examines key environmental and socio-economic
factors that require consideration.
Approaches and Methodology
The preparation of this RAP is based on the Constitution of the Federal Democratic Republic of
Ethiopia (FDRE) and relevant legislation and regulations as well as the World Bank's
Operational Policies and Procedures OP4.12 and WB OP 4.01, which specifies the procedure
that needs to be followed to address involuntary resettlement in Bank-financed projects.
In the course of preparing this RAP the consultant carried out:
Review of existing policies and development strategies, legal and institutional
frameworks pertaining to the project,
Field level investigation that include household census of PAPs, inventory of properties
and assets of the affected households, assessing the livelihood of PAPs,
Identification of the most appropriate social management and monitoring action plan,
which will ensure that reinforcement measures for the positive impacts and the mitigation
of adverse social impacts are fully addressed in line with World Bank’s OP4.12
Consultations
Consultations were carried out with the PAPs and other pertinent stakeholders. Consultations
with the PAPs mainly focused on the potential positive social benefits accruing from the
implementation of IZD project and also the valuation of property as well as compensation
estimate for each of the affected households. It was also concerned about the views and opinions
of the PAPs regarding the potential negative impacts and possible mitigation measures as well as
the participation of the PAPs in this regard. To this effect, stakeholder analysis was also carried
out to identify and characterize the PAPs. Subsequent consultations were also held with the
stakeholders, which included different institutions as well as grassroots level stakeholders. The
main objectives of the consultations made with the stakeholders of the KIZ project were to
obtain their views, concerns, and recommendations so as to incorporate into the project design
and to enhance the environmental and social performance of the project.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page ix
Number and Category of Project Affected Populations
The implementation of Kilinto Industrial Zone will involve the dispossession of farmlands and
grazing land of 245 farming households which consists of 161 male and 84 female headed
hosueholds. The 245 Households comprised of 1,225 individuals or PAPs residing within the
308ha of land incorporated by Kilinto Industrial Zone. From these households, only 15
households will have to be relocated.
Resettlement Action Plan
Past experiences with similar projects indicate that, unless adverse social impacts such as
resettlement and relocation of PAPs are mitigated, the project might lead to severe socio-
economic impacts, like loss of income and assets, loss of farm lands, loss of trees (perennial and
other types) and other related socio-cultural problems.
Thus, this RAP has been developed in line with OP4.12, and addresses the involuntary
resettlement issues likely to arise during the implementation of the KIZ project. The RAP
provides an entitlement framework, implementation procedures, institutional arrangements,
monitoring requirements and grievance redressing mechanism. Therefore, in this resettlement
action plan different types of mitigation measures such as compensation in cash for lost
farmlands and grazing lands, resettlement of dislocated households as well as livelihood
restoration actions, etc, has been recommended.
Institutional Arrangements
Institutions and organizations have to play their respective roles in the management of the RAP
with respect to social issues which might arise during the construction and operation of the KIZ
development.
Accordingly, the Federal Ministry of Industry (MoI) and its subordinate i.e. the Ethiopian
Industrial Development Zones Corporation (EIDZC), Competitiveness and Job Creation Project
(CJCP) and the Addis Ababa City Administration are all responsible for the successful
implementation of this RAP. MoI will have overall responsibility for the managment and budget
allocation for RAP implementation as well as for the oversight, coordination, monitoring and
evaluation of IZ related project activities. Besides, MoI will ensure the overall quality and
timeliness of project implementation; including compliance with all aspects of the IZDP's
Operational Manual to be prepared.
Addis Ababa City Administration and Akaki Kality Sub city are directly responsible for the
execution of compensation payments, preparation of the resettlement site and other resettlement
assistances for PAPs, as well as in providing support for vulnerable groups, etc. The Industrial
Zone Development and Environmental Safeguards Directorate (IZDESD), which is structured
under the EIZDC is directly responsible for the review, monitoring, supervision and
implementation of this RAP and the timely realization of mitigation measures.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page x
At Woreda level, Akaki-Kality Woreda 9 and 10 Administration Offices, the Woredas
Agriculture and Rural Development Offices, the Kebele Administrations, and the community
leaders or elders will also play very important roles in implementing the RAP through the
resettlement implementation committee and grievance redress committee set as per regulations
and guidelines.
Entitlement Framework
An entitlement matrix which defines the eligibility for compensation and rehabilitation
assistance for different categories of project affected persons is included in this RAP.
Accordingly, all persons affected by land acquisition, and loss of houses and other assets, are
entitled to a combination of compensation measures, resettlement assistance and livelihood
restoration activities. However, a person who occupies the land after the cut-off date (July 31,
2014) i.e. after the completion of the census of affected households will not be eligible for
compensation associated with the loss of any kind of new asset formations and /or new claim for
resettlement and rehabilitation provisions.
Grievance Redress Mechanism
An inventory of assets and properties of project affected people has been made and asset
valuation and registration have been conducted in the presence of the PAPs and the resettlement
committees. This is expected to reduce the chances of disputes. Nevertheless, a conflict
resolution mechanism has been designed to resolve potential disputes that may arise during RAP
implementation. To this effect, a grievance redress committee has been established that includes
a representative of the Woreda Administration - as Chairman of the Committee, a Representative
of the Woreda Agriculture and Rural Development Office, a Representative of the Kebele
Administration, two Representatives of PAPs, and an Elder from the local community. The
committee’s duty is to hear complaints and facilitate solutions so as to promote early dispute
settlement through mediation to reduce litigation.
Resettlement Action Plan Budget
The cost estimate for implementing the RAP is made based on the requirements of proposed
mitigation activities. Assessments and estimates were made in consultation with relevant
stakeholders mainly in calculating budget requirements for different livelihood restoration
activities such as training and capacity building requirements, business plan supports, etc, that
need to be implemented. Accordingly, the total budget estimate of the RAP is Birr 67,584,207.00
(Sixty seven million five hundred eighty four thousand and two hundred seven Birr only).
The following table summarizes the total amount of the funds required for the implementation of
this RAP.

1 Introduction
1.1 Project background
The GoE has given emphasis to ensuring faster and sustained development of the industrial
sector, as envisioned in the Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP). The GTP seeks to
consolidate the positive development outcomes attained in the last decade to bring about broad-
based and transformative structural changes required to stir the economy on rapid growth path
toward becoming a middle income country by 2025. This development goal is especially
anchored on stimulating rapid growth and structural transformation of the agricultural and
industrial sectors in ways that enhance wealth creation and expansion of employment
opportunities in the economy.
Accordingly, as of recent times, the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) is striving to establish
Industrial Zones that are thought to facilitate and enhance the transformation. The Government in
collaboration with the International Development Association (IDA) of the World Bank is
spearheading an Industrial Zone Development program which is implemented with funds
contributed by GoE, the IDA and other development partners. The Ministry of Industry (MoI),
with the support of the World Bank’s International Development Association (IDA) plans to
support the Government’s Industrial Zones (IZ) program through the Competiveness and Job
Creation (CJC) Project.
The proposed Kilinto Industrial Zone (KIZ) is one of such development programs which is
planned to be developed on a total area of 308ha. The development objective of the proposed
project is to contribute to job creation by attracting investments and improving enterprise
competitiveness in the targeted industrial zones (IZ). Based on the feasibility and master plan
studies, the recommended industries comprised of food and beverages, furniture and fixtures,
pharmaceutical and medical, electric/electronics and miscellaneous manufacturing.
However, the development of the Industrial Zones can have both positive and negative bio-
physical and social impacts unless they are implemented by giving due emphasis to the
protection of the environment in general and the wellbeing and livelihood of the population in
and around the project area in particular. Therefore, as a matter of policy and regulations of the
Ethiopian Government and the World Bank, a Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF),
Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) and an Environmental and Social
Impact Assessment (ESIA) of KIZ have already been prepared.
Further to the RPF, this site specific Resettlement Action Plan has now been prepared to address
the impacts that the establishment of the KIZ will have on the wellbeing and livelihood of the
Project Affected Populations (PAPs) and their surroundings because of the expropriation of
agricultural land, dislocation of settlements and other related impacts, and so as to plan the
required livelihood restoration and community development measures.
This Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) prepared for the proposed KIZ, is intended to fulfill policy,
legal and guideline requirements of both the Ethiopian Government and the World Bank. This
Resettlement Action Plan is based also on the outcome of the RPF and ESIA study.

1.2 Objectives of the Resettlement Action Plan
The objective of this Resettlement Action Plan is to provide a plan for resettlement and
rehabilitation of the PAPs so that their losses will be compensated and their standard of living
will be improved or at least restored to the pre‐project levels. To achieve this objective the plan
describes the compensation and rehabilitation measures required so that the income earnings
potential of individuals will be restored and their livelihoods will sustain. Specifically, this RAP
has been developed in order to:
provide details on the legal framework governing land expropriation, valuation methods,
compensation payment, eligibility entitlements, etc. for the project affected persons
(PAPs),
assess the type and magnitude of resettlement
identify the PAPs
provide dissemination, public consultation and participation, and grievance redress
mechanisms, project planning and implementation;
define institutional and implementation arrangements
provide a framework for supervision, monitoring and evaluation of resettlement
implementation
define the monitoring and evaluation requirements, and
provide the cost estimates for the RAP implementation.
1.3 Guiding principles
In order to comply with pertinent policies, rules and regulations of the Ethiopian Government
and the World Bank’s Operational Policy on Involuntary Resettlement as well as international
best practices, the following guiding principles have been adhered to in preparing this plan.
Resettlement must be avoided or minimized
To comply with the principle, MoI and the Addis Ababa City Administration through their
preceding assessments and studies have designed the project so as to cause the least possible
displacement and/or disruption.
Genuine consultation must take place
Given its focus on resettlement, the primary concern is to take seriously the rights and interests
of the Project Affected Population (PAPs) not only during preparation, but also during the
implementation of this RAP. For this to take place, their voices need to be made clear via the
formation of local level consultative forum. The tasks have been co‐coordinated by the MoI
which assigned an independent consultant and by the Addis Ababa City Administration via the
Sub city personnel and with the support of relevant institutions.
Establishment of a pre‐resettlement baseline data
To support the successful compensation for affected property, an inventory of landholdings and
immovable/non‐retrievable improvements (buildings and structures) as well other assets has been
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 3
undertaken prior to displacement i.e. to determine fair and reasonable levels of compensation or
mitigation
Compensation for loss, and assistance in relocation must be made available
As per consultations made, MoI guarantees the provision of all necessary compensation for
people and institutions whose properties and fields will be disturbed to make way for the
construction and operation of the KIZ (including all categories of industries and other supporting
facilities etc.), or any other disturbances of productive land associated with the project in
proportion to their loss. Furthermore, relocation assistance will be provided to those
disadvantaged households that will have to move.
A fair and equitable set of compensation options must be provided
Compensation for structures, land and trees that are disturbed will be based on current market
price at full replacement cost. Due attention will be given to the vulnerable groups including
women.
Resettlement must take place as a development that ensures PAPs benefit.
In order for resettlement to take place, prior concern should be made for the PAPs’ benefit.
Where practical, the employment opportunities that arise from the project will be made available
to the project affected population. A concerted effort shall be made for the implementation of
community development and livelihood restoration measures. In this regard, Addis Ababa City
Administration in conjunction with the MoI and other pertinent institutions shall work to make
sure that PAPs benefit from the upcoming development.
Vulnerable social groups need special attention and care
Members of vulnerable groups (women, female headed households, elderly, widow, orphan,
people with disability, the infirm or ill, etc.) are often not able to make their voice heard
effectively, and proper account has been taken of this during the consultation and planning
processes. This effort will also be strengthened in establishing grievance procedures. In this
respect, it has been ascertained during consultations with respective officials at different levels
that such vulnerable groups will receive due care in the whole process of RAP implementation in
such a way that they will secure the necessary protection to ensure equitable access to
compensation and replacement resources (for the budget see Table 0-1 above).
Resettlement must be seen as an upfront project cost
Experience across the world shows that unless resettlement is built in as an upfront project cost,
it tends to be under-budgeted, that money gets whittled away from the resettlement budget to
‘more pressing’ project needs, and that it tends to be seen as peripheral to the overall project. The
MoI has to be able to allocate the required budget for RAP while at the same time it oversees
(follows and monitors) the overall implementation as well as render required capacity
development to the main actors of this RAP. Readiness and preparations necessary on the part of
the Addis Ababa City Administration and pertinent Sub city and woreda level offices have to be
ensured for the implementation of this RAP. In this regard, it has been confirmed during the
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 4
consultation processes that the city Administration has been making efforts to ascertain not only
the replacement cost but also other recommended livelihood restoration measures to be
implemented appropriately. Table 0-1 provides a summary of the budget for implementing this
RAP.
An independent monitoring and grievance procedure must be in place.
In addition to internal monitoring that will be provided by Addis Ababa City Administration, the
Sub city and the project Woredas, an independent team comprising representatives from the local
Administration and the local population will undertake monitoring of the resettlement aspect of
the project. Monitoring will specifically take place via measurement against the pre‐resettlement
database. A grievance redress committee has also been established that includes representative of
the Woreda Administration - as Chairman of the Committee, representative of the Woreda
Agriculture and Rural Development Office, a representative of the Kebele Administration, two
representatives of PAPs, and an Elder from the community. Their duty is to hear complaints and
facilitate solutions so as to promote dispute settlement through mediation to reduce litigation. As
per the resettlement guideline of the Addis Ababa City (Guideline No. 3 2010), Office for
Compensation Study and Implementation Appropriateness Audit has also been established.
World Bank’s operational procedure on Involuntary Resettlement
The World Bank′s Operational Policy on Involuntary Resettlement (OP/BP 4.12) will be
adhered to. The objective of this policy is to ensure that the development process takes measures
to (i) avoid or minimize involuntary resettlement where feasible, exploring all viable alternative
project designs; (ii) assist displaced persons in improving their former living standards, income
earning capacity, and production levels, or at least in restoring them; (iii) encourage community
participation in planning and implementing resettlement; and (iv) provide assistance to affected
people regardless of the legality of land tenure.
It requires that involuntary resettlement be avoided where feasible, or minimized, exploring all
viable alternative project designs. Where it is not feasible to avoid resettlement, resettlement
activities should be conceived and executed as Sustainable Development Programs, providing
sufficient investment resources to enable the persons displaced by the project to share in project
benefits. Displaced persons should be meaningfully consulted and have opportunities to
participate in planning and implementing resettlement programs. They should also be assisted in
their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real
terms, to pre‐displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of the project
implementation, whichever is higher.

2 Approaches, methodologies and scope of work
2.1 Approaches
To prepare this RAP, discussions and consultations were conducted at different levels starting
from the pertinent directorates and departments at the Ministry of Industry (MOI) down to the
level of the Project Affected Populations (PAPs) in the project communities. The participatory
approach served as a platform to jointly identify the potential positive and negative outcomes
and enhancement and mitigation measures respectively. It helped in defining the roles and
responsibilities of different stakeholders and the required resources in the process of the
preparation and implementation of the RAP.
A combination of both a quantitative and a qualitative approach was used to collect data for
the assessment in order to close gaps that can emanate from the exclusive use of either one or the
other due to the merits and demerits of each data collection methods. However, within the
context of this proposed IZ project, the qualitative approach, which is more flexible and allows
for exploration of issues that emerge during the fieldwork, was employed more. This allowed the
Consultant to tap into the diverse perspectives of multiple stakeholders. “Triangulation”, using
various informants, data collection methods and settings, was used to cross -check on the
validity of findings.
An Integrated and Holistic Approach was utilized for the preparation of this RAP. Impact
identification and analysis becomes more comprehensive and complete when it assesses all steps
and activities involved in a given operational process of a project and the inter-linkages between
them. Therefore, instead of assessing each project component separately, the approach to the
assignment was designed in such a way that it assesses the impacts and the RAP measures in the
light of their linkages and integration.
2.2 Methodologies employed and detailed scope of work
The methodologies and detailed scope of work used in conducting the RAP study are discussed
below.
Field Surveys: The RAP consultant made repeated field surveys basically for the
observation and understanding of the baseline environment and the without project
situation in both biophysical and socioeconomic terms. The consultant has used 1:50,000
topographic sheets and a location map of the proposed Kilinto Industrial Zone (KIZ)
prepared by the MoI to assess the existing biophysical (topography, slope, vegetation
cover, etc and socioeconomic (settlements, major economic activities, land use, etc)
within the proposed site and the surroundings. The consultant has used GPS readings of
coordinates of the boundaries of the proposed site for the preparation of the location map,
catchments and watershed map, settlement, existing land use and the like. This was very
important since it clearly depicted the without project situation upon which the
implementation of the IZ is to be superimposed for the identification, understanding, and
assessment of the likely positive and negative impacts.
Interviews and discussions with specialists: Potential project impacts in terms of
socioeconomic impacts, particularly with respect to land acquisition, expropriation of
property and the resulting livelihood impacts have been discussed with relevant
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 6
specialists and experts working in the area of resettlement and livelihood restoration
programs with and without the project area. Master plan experts were also consulted.
Literature and document review: Information on existing socioeconomic conditions
was obtained from review of various published and unpublished sources including the
recently accomplished Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) and
Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) of the Bole Lemi and Kilinto Industrial Zones. In
addition, review of studies including pre-feasibility study of the Bole Lemi Industrial
Zone Project, the World Bank Safeguard Policies, ESMF and the mid- term guidance was
made. Review of recent World Bank Reports on the area such as Benchmarking and
Demand Forecast Reports, Global documents and ESIA reports on IZs, etc. was made.
Available relevant data and information in MoI and Akaki Kality Sub city, Woreda
Administrations such as data on land acquisition, and records of number of PAPs, list of
PAPs prepared on their part were reviewed for comparison and rectification with results
of survey conducted by the Consultant. Similarly, institutional and organizational setups
as well as objectives, mandates, plans, performances, etc, of the different offices in the
Sub city such as the Small Scale and Micro Enterprise, Technical and Vocational
Educational Training (TVET), etc have been reviewed.
Competent authority guidelines: The Federal and regional legislative and institutional
framework, policies, procedures, guidelines etc. were reviewed. In particular EPA and
World Bank guidelines were reviewed and adhered too in as much as possible.
Participatory analysis which includes:
- Consultation with relevant federal, regional and local authorities: As
explained above under the participatory approach interviews and discussions with
several local authorities and stakeholders were carried out in the project area. This
includes consultation with Ministry of Industry, Akaki Sub city Administration,
Woreda 9 and 10, which are the lowest Administration units.
- Community consultation: Community consultation meetings were conducted
for both Woreda 09 and 10 to draw together the issues and concerns of
stakeholders and project affected parties. A brief introductory note containing
brief description of the project, its positive and negative impacts was presented by
the consultant to stimulate their participation in the discussion.

3 Relevant Policies, Legal and Institutional Framework
3.1 Constitution of FDRE
Constitution of the Federal Democratic Ethiopia Proclamation 1/1995 contains several relevant
policy legal and institutional provisions that have direct relevance for the expropriation
procedures for those people who might be affected by the proposed project. The constitution
addresses the land ownership and holding right in article 40.3 of the constitution, which provides
the right to ownership of both rural and urban land as well as natural resources to government
and the people of Ethiopia.
It further states that land is the common property of Ethiopian people and cannot be subject to
sale or to other means of exchange. In addition, article 40.5 of the constitution guarantees the
right of farmers to obtain land without payment and protection against eviction from their
possession. The detailed implementation of this provision is to be specified by subsequent laws.
Hence, the rural and urban dwellers have only usufruct right over land. This right gives to a
person, the right to use the land and benefit from the fruits of his /her labor, which may be crops,
trees, and other investments found on the land or any permanent works such as buildings etc,.
Any interference with the usufruct rights, such as expropriation, shall entail compensation. This
is clearly provided in article 40.7 of the constitution which says that every Ethiopian shall have
the right to the immovable property like buildings, irrigation structures, etc and to other fixed
structures or permanent improvement that s/he has brought about on the land by his/her own
labor or capital. This right shall include the right to alienate, to bequeath, and, where the right to
use expires, to remove from his property, transfer his title, or claim to compensation for it. The
owner of that right is entitled to compensation. The detailed implementation will be effective as
determined by the law and regulations.
Article 40.8 of the Ethiopian Constitution strengthens this by providing for expropriation of
private property for a public purpose which requires advance payment of compensation.
3.2 Policies Framework
3.2.1 Constitutional Provision on Land
The Constitution of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FDRE) states that the right
to ownership of rural and urban land, as well as all natural resources, is exclusively vested in
the State and People of Ethiopia. Article 40 of the Constitution indicates that land is a
common property of the Nations, Nationalities and the People of Ethiopia, and shall not be
subjected to sale or to other means of transfer.
The Constitution of FDRE retained land under the control of the people and government of
Ethiopia thus, prohibiting buying and selling. Also article 4(5) of the Proclamation 94/1994
deals with provision of land for the conservation, development and utilization of state forests
or protected areas. However, this can be effective only after the consultation and consent of
the peasantry and subject to the assurance of their benefits.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 8
In general, all legal provisions cited above, make lands the property of the People and
Government of Ethiopia, and buying and selling of land is prohibited but leasing rights is
allowed. Moreover, it is the right for existing land use right holder to be compensated fully
and satisfactorily if land is expropriated by the state.
The Land Policy of Ethiopia strongly supports that projects plan must include attractive and
sustainable resettlement strategies to the people who are going to be displaced as a result of
the development plan, and that they have to be fully convinced, compensated and participate
in all phases of the project implementation.
This RAP is in line with the above provision.
3.2.2 National Policy of Women
The national Policy of the Ethiopian Women was issued in March 1993. In this policy, it is
indicated that government policies, laws, regulations, plans, programs and projects should be
based on the following objectives:
- To ensure participation of women in the formulation of government policies, laws,
regulations, programs and projects that directly or indirectly benefit and concerns women
- To ensure participation and involvement of women in implementation and decision
making processes
- To ensure equal access of men and women to the country’s resources
3.3 Legal Framework
3.3.1 The Rural Land Administration and Utilization Proclamation
The constitution of FDRE leaves the detailed implementation of the provisions concerning tenure
rights over rural land to be determined by subsequent specific laws to be issued at both the
federal and regional levels. Accordingly, the Rural Land Administration and Land Use
Proclamation No. 456/2005 was issued in 2005 to further determine the land use system and land
use rights in the country or at the federal level. The proclamation provides that land
Administration laws to be enacted by regions should be based on the provisions provided therein
and specifies the basic principles of rural land distribution and utilization including the scope of
land use rights which regional laws should grant. Accordingly, in matters of acquisition and
compensation of land, it should be noted that the federal law applies to the Addis Ababa City
Administration.
3.3.2 Expropriation and Compensation of Property
Land tenure
As already indicated, according to the Constitution of December 1994, Land holding right came
under the control of the people and government of Ethiopia. Article 40 states that ownership of
both urban and rural land is vested in the state and the people, a common property which is not
subject to sale or other means of exchange. Peasants have the right to obtain land without
payment and are protected against eviction from land in their possession.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 9
Expropriation
According to the Constitution of FDRE, full right to immovable property and permanent
improvement to the land is vested in individuals who have built the property or made the
improvements but Government may expropriate such property for public purpose, subject to the
payment in advance of compensation commensurate to the value of the property or alternative
means of compensation including relocation with adequate state assistance. Thus, project plans
would have to include an attractive and sustainable compensation strategy, offering adequate
compensation and incentive to the loss of livelihood.
The Proclamation on Expropriation of Land and Compensation No 455/2005 implied and
repealed the outdated provisions of the Ethiopian civil code of 1960 on “regulations land
acquisitions and compensation for the purpose of public project”. which established detailed
procedures setting the time limits within which land could be acquired after a request is received
from a project proponent, and includes principles for assessment for compensation of properties
on the land as well as for displacement compensation.
It also empowered Woreda Administrations to establish valuation committees to value private
properties. In the case of publicly owned infrastructures to be removed the barriers for planned
land acquisition, substantially raised the amount of compensation payable to expropriated owners
of properties and displaced people.
Regulation No 135/2007 on “payment of compensation for property situated on land holdings
expropriated for public purpose” has also been issued for the proper implementation of the
Proclamation No. 455/2005 on “Expropriation of land holdings for public purposes and payment
of compensation”. These regulations were issued for the purpose of not only paying
compensation but also to assist displaced persons to restore their livelihoods. These regulations
set forth details to determine the amount of compensation for different assets found on land
holdings expropriated for public purposes and stipulate the formula to calculate the amount of
compensation payable for different assets.
Compensation
The Government issued Proclamation in July 2005 on the “Expropriation of landholding for
public purposes and payment of Compensation” Proclamation No. 455/2005. The objective of
the proclamation was to define the basic principles that have to be taken into consideration in
determining compensation to a person whose landholding has been expropriated.
The proclamation indicates certain procedures to be followed during the expropriation of
landholdings.
Power to expropriate Landholding: Woreda or an urban Administration shall upon payment in
advance of compensation, have the power to expropriate rural or urban holdings for public
purpose where it should be used for a better development projects to be carried out by public
entities, investors.
Notification of expropriation order: In this context the landholders will be notified in writing,
when they should vacate and the amount of compensation to be paid to them. The period of
notification to be given shall be determined by directives, it may not, in any way, be less than 90
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 10
days. The landholder shall handover the land to the Woreda or urban Administration within 90
days from the date of payment of compensation.
The responsibility of the implementing Agency, as defined in the proclamation, includes
preparing detailed data pertaining to the land needed for its works and give notice to the organs
empowered to expropriate land and pay compensation to landholders whose holdings will be
expropriated.
As per Article 7 of the Proclamation, the amount of compensation is based on certain conditions,
which include:
The landholder whose holding has been expropriated shall be entitled to payment of
compensation for his property situated on the land and permanent improvements s/he
made to such land;
The amount of compensation for the property shall be determined on the basis of
replacement cost of the property, and if it is in urban area, it may not, in any way be
less than the current cost of constructing a single room low cost house.
Compensation for permanent improvement to land shall be equal to the value of
capital and labor expended on fixed asset development on the land. In addition, costs
of removal, transportation and erection shall be paid as compensation for any
property that could be relocated and continue its services as before.
It has been also indicated in the Proclamation Article 8, that the displacement compensation shall
be paid within the following condition:
A rural landholder whose landholding has been permanently expropriated, shall in
addition to compensation under Article 7, be paid displacement compensation which
is equivalent to ten times the average annual income he secured during the five years
preceding the expropriation of the land.
A rural landholder or holders of communal land whose landholding has been
temporarily taken shall, in addition to compensation under Article 7, be paid until
repossession of the land, and also for lost income based on the average annual income
secured during the five years preceding the expropriation of the land, however, such
payment shall not exceed the amount of compensation payable under the above bullet
point.
An urban landholder whose holding has been expropriated shall be provided with a
plot of urban land, and be paid displacement compensation based on current market
price at replacement cost for the demolished houses. The same also applies for
commercial buildings to be demolished.
As per policy and regulations, the valuation of property of the KIZ was done by a Consultant
from Metaferia Consulting Engineers PLC which is a certified private firm. The work was done
in collaboration with the Woreda and Sub city Administration as well as the participation of the
PAPs. The valuation of property situated on land to be expropriated was done on the basis of
valuation formula adopted at the national level (Proclamation No. 455/2005) which is also
reflected in the regulation (Regulation No. 135/2007) and subsequent guidelines (Guideline No.
3/2010, No. 3/2012 and No. 3/2014) of Addis Ababa City Administration which have been
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 11
developed to manage the compensation and valuation of land, housing and other properties (See
Annex 6).
Any measurement of farmland and grazing land, assessment of other property is conducted by
qualified surveyors from the Sub city in the presence of the already established Resettlement
Committee and the PAPs or their representatives. Proclamation No. 455/2005, Article 8 has also
indicated who should be committee members during valuation of properties to be affected, and
stated as follows, the Woreda Administration where the land to be expropriated is located in rural
areas, shall assign a committee of not more than five experts having the relevant qualification
and if the land is located in urban area, the urban Administration shall do the same for valuating
property. If the land to be expropriated requires specialized knowledge and experience, a
separate committee of experts to be designated by the Woreda or urban Administration shall
value it.
As per the proclamation, complaints and appeals in relation to compensation payments for PAPs
are being dealt as follows:
Any complaint or grievances related to the valuation of assets and property or amount
of compensation of the PAPs is being submitted to the Grievance Redress Committee.
The above organ shall examine the complaint and give its decision within short
period of time as specified by directives issued by the City Government.
The party dissatisfied with the decision rendered above may appeal to the regular
appellate court or municipal appellate court within 30 days and it will be the final
decision.
Issues related to appropriate heir are being dealt by regular court having jurisdiction.
The execution of an expropriation order may not be delayed due to a complaint
regarding the amount of compensation.
In the course of implementing the proclamation, the Ministry of Federal Affairs has the duties
and responsibilities, of following-up and ensuring that the provisions of the proclamation are
complied with within a region, giving technical and capacity building support to regions.
Besides, in collaboration with other organs of the federal government, the Ministry of Federal
Affairs is also responsible for preparing national valuation formula for the determination of
compensation payable under this proclamation, and for submitting the same to the Council of
Ministers for approval. While the Woreda and Urban Municipal Administrations have the
responsibilities and duties of paying or causing the payment of compensation to holders of
expropriated land and providing them with rehabilitation support to the extent possible and
maintaining data of properties removed.
3.4 The World Bank′s Involuntary Resettlement policy (OP/BP 4.12)
The objective of this policy is to ensure that the development process fosters and to (i) avoid or
minimize involuntary resettlement where feasible, exploring all viable alternative project
designs; (ii) assist displaced persons in improving their former living standards, income earning
capacity, and production levels, or at least in restoring them; (iii) encourage community
participation in planning and implementing resettlement; and (iv) provide assistance to affected
people regardless of the legality of land tenure.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 12
This policy covers not only physical relocation but any loss of land or other assets resulting in:
(i) relocation of loss of shelter; (ii) loss of assets or access to assets; (iiii) loss of income sources
or means of livelihood, whether or not the affected people must move to another location. This
policy also applies to the squatters and involuntary restriction of access to legally designated
parks and protected areas resulting in adverse impacts on the livelihoods of the displaced
persons.
The Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) prepared for the KIZ requires a proponent (in this
case the MoI) to prepare a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) to address involuntary resettlement.
Consistent with the RPF, this RAP must be implemented before the start of any civil works.
3.5 Gaps between Ethiopian Laws and World Bank’s Policy
There are significant gaps between Ethiopian laws and regulations and the requirements for
involuntary resettlement as laid out in the World Bank’s OP 4.12.The Ethiopian laws and
regulations are not completely compatible with the Bank’s OP 4.12 provisions. Below is a short
discussion of the most important differences.
While OP 4.12 requires that compensation be completed prior to the start of the project, there are
no similar time tables set out in Ethiopian laws or regulations. Additionally, there is no provision
for relocation assistance, transitional support, or the provision of compensation for loss of civic
infrastructure under Ethiopian law. Additionally, Ethiopian law does not make any specific
accommodation for squatters or illegal settlers, other than recognition of some use-rights, such as
when settlers can claim rights to the land.
OP 4.12 requires that affected communities be consulted regarding project implementation and
resettlement. Affected communities should also receive the opportunity to participate,
implement, and monitor resettlement. However, Ethiopian law states that, when it is determined
that a right of way must be established, the expropriation rights of the State take precedence,
although the Constitution protects the individual’s use-rights.
No specific provision is made in Ethiopian law to accommodate the potential adverse impacts of
involuntary resettlement and taking of land for vulnerable groups such as women, children, the
elderly, historically disadvantaged ethnic minorities, the landless, and those living under the
poverty line. These groups are at highest risk to experience negative effects due to resettlement,
and should receive special consideration to assure that they can maintain at least the same
standard of living after the taking of land takes place.
Finally, in contrast with OP 4.12, there is also no provision in the law that the state should
attempt to minimize involuntary resettlement. However, this appears to be implicit in the
Constitution of the country. Where there is difference between OP 4.12 and the Ethiopian law,
the World Bank’s OP 4.12 shall prevail.

Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 13
4 Institutional Framework for RAP Implementation (organizational
responsibilities)
Effective and successful implementation of the RAP ultimately depends upon issues related to
the institutional and organizational arrangements made for its implementation. Experience shows
that even well designed RAPs (and other similar projects) fail to achieve their objectives mainly
because of inadequate institutional arrangements for their implementation. Full commitment on
the part of the implementing agency in terms of establishing the necessary institutional
arrangements and providing adequate incentives and resources (budget, manpower, etc) is very
important. To this effect, institutions both at federal, regional and local level need to work in
harmonization.
4.1 Federal Level
Ministry of Industry (MoI) and its Organs
At the federal level, the Ministry of Industry (MoI) and its organ the Industrial Zone
Development and Environmental Safeguards Directorate (IZDESD), will be responsible for
supervising the activities of Competitiveness and Job Creation (CJC) Project, which is
established to contribute to job creation by attracting investments and improving enterprise
competitiveness in the targeted industrial zones. MoI provides overall policy guidelines and
coordination at the Ministerial level and also provide adequate governance and management.
With respect to the implementation of the RAP, it is the objective of the Ministry of Industry
(MoI), to avoid or reduce the environmental and social impacts of its industrial zone
development projects to a minimum level. As per the already approved Resettlement Policy
Framework (RPF), MoI will, among other things, have the responsibility for the allocation of the
budget for the RAP and overall responsibility in the oversight, coordination, and monitoring and
evaluation of project activities. MoI, therefore, will ensure the overall quality and timeliness of
project implementation, including compliance with all aspects of the IZDP Operational Manual.
EIZDC
The EIZDC will serve as the coordinating body across Federal and the different local industrial
zone sites. EIZDC is expected to have an Environmental and Social Safeguards Directorate
within its structure whose responsibility will include:
Appraisal and montoring of the RAP with the City/Sub city as required
Monitor and Evaluate the implemention of the RAP
Provide technical and logistic supports and capacity building through training and related
activities, etc.
To effectively implement this RAP, MoI through its EIZDC shall make sure that adequate
budget is allocated for compensation before the project implementation (see Table 0-1 for the
budget).
.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 14
Competitiveness and Job creation (CJC) Project Coordination Office
CJCP, which is established under the MoI, is responsible for the administration and
implementation of this RAP. The project office will manage the following two crucial activities
related to the RAP: coordinating, supervising and monitoring its implementation and identifying
adverse social impacts associated with IZDPs. CJC is, therefore, expected to conduct regular
monitoring and to prepare periodic reports on the implementation of safeguard measures as
outlined in the RAP.
Social Safeguards Officers
The social safeguards officers in the Industrial Zone Development and Environmental Safeguard
Directorate (IZDESD) and CJCP will be directly responsible for reviewing, monitoring, and
implementation of the RAP. The social safeguards officer will also be responsible and in charge
for the identification of adverse environmental and social impacts and for monitoring the
implementation of the mitigation measures.
Monitoring and Evaluation Officers
Proper monitoring and evaluation mechanism will be installed to assess the impact of
resettlement for a reasonable period before and after all resettlement and related development
activities have been completed. Therefore, the Monitoring and Evaluation officers of the
Industrial Zone Development Corporation (IZDC) and CJCP will be responsible to monitor and
evaluate the implementation of the RAP in consultation with Akaki Kality Sub city and Woreda
9 and 10 Administration offices. The monitoring and evaluation tasks will be done on the basis
of indicators which include;
Timely implementation according to the timelines in the RAP;
Number of PAPs compensated, and type and amount of compensation paid;
Livelihoods restoration efforts made (number and type of jobs created, type of skills
training given and number of PAPs participated in the training, number of PAPs
participated in IGA schemes, amount of credit installed or number of PAPs benefited
from a credit scheme, and number of beneficiaries of other livelihood restoration supports
made, etc);
Number of vulnerable PAPs that have received additional support and assistance;
Type of public infrastructures and social services (availability of basic infrastructure:
electric power, access road, water, education and healthcare services, sanitary and
drainage facilities) re-established in the new resettlement area;
Appropriateness of grievance redresses mechanisms (number of complaints received and
resolved on agreed time, etc)
The evaluation will be done on quarterly and annual basis for two consecutive years. The
monitoring and evaluation results will be based on a number of key indices for selected
households in combination with the observations by the social scientist. EIZDC will report the
findings to MoI and other project stakeholders. Furthermore, the Woreda Administration offices
will also produce a quarterly report regarding their accomplishments and submit to the Sub city
and the city Administration as well as to MoI. Finally, through MoI the report will be submitted
to the World Bank.

4.2 Regional and Local level
Addis Ababa City Administration and its organs
The Addis Ababa City Administration, the Akaki-Kality Sub city and the Administrations of
Woreda 9 and 10 in Akaki Kality Sub city will have a major role and responsibility in the
planning and implementation of this RAP.
In addition to government institutions, representatives of PAPs and local NGOs operating at
woreda level will have important role to play in the planning and implementation of the RAP and
their involvement needs to be enhanced. Akaki Kality Sub city and Woreda 9 and 10 as required,
are responsible for the execution of compensation payments as per the guidelines set in the RPF
and this RAP. Therefore, Akaki Kality Sub city and its organs namely:
i. Land Administration and Building Permit Authority (LABPA)
ii. Land Dev’t Bank and Urban Renewal Office (LDBURO)
iii. Woreda Administration (Woreda 9 and 10) are responsible for:
establishing resettlement and grievance redress committees at Woreda level;
implementing the RAP
effecting compensation payments for PAPs
implementing income restoration measures
providing support for vulnerable groups
monitoring the restoration of public services, etc.
Resettlement Implementation Committee
The Resettlement Implementation Committee is one of the most important actors as far as the
RAP is concerned and shall be established at both Woredas (Woreda 9 and 10) with the
responsibility of planning, coordinating and monitoring of compensation payments and
relocation activities. This committee which is comprised of representatives from the Woreda
Administration offices, the PAPs, the Kebele Administration, the Sub city land management
team, the Woreda Agriculture and Rural Development Office and Elders has already been
established during the period of field work and the PAPs are already aware of the existence of
such committees in each specific woreda.
Property Valuation Committee
The Property Valuation Committee has been established in each Woreda and review the list of
PAPs, registration of assets and properties; and establish unit rates, taking into account,
Proclamation 455/2005 and councils of Ministers regulation 135/2007. The following are
members of the committee: agriculture experts, land and property surveyors, representatives
from the Woreda Administrations and the PAPs.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 16
Grievance Redress Committees and Mechanisms (GRC)
In the process of implementing this RAP, identifying grievances and ensuring timely resolution
is very important. A Grievance Redresse Committee (GRC), whose main function is to handle
grievances and amicably resolve problems has also been established. PAPs may file their
discontents in writing to the committee chairperson. The grievance needs to be signed and dated
by the aggrieved person. The GRC will keep a register of grievances, and respond in writing
within fifteen days after they receive the complaint and inform the complainant of its rights,
whether it intends to investigate the matter, and the timeframe.
If the grievance is related to valuation of assets, the appropriate officers from Land
Administration office and the GRC members need to be requested to revalue the assets in
question, and this may require a longer period of time. If the aggrieved person does not receive a
response within 15 days, or is not satisfied with the outcome s/he may lodge the case to the
Court. The decisions of the courts will be the final and binding. However, amicable settlement
and arbitration among aggrieved parties is the most preferred option for dispute settlement. The
PAPs are, therefore, well aware of the existence and role of this committee.

5 SOCIO-ECONOMIC BASELINE STATUS (GENERAL)
5.1 Location and Administration Setup
Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia is found in the central part of the country at the
foothills of Mount Entoto. It is located at the geographical coordinate of 9º N and 38º 45’E,
covering a total area of over 527km2 (527,000 hectares). The city is a seat for the African Union
and many other international organizations. As can be seen from the location map below, the
proposed Kilinto Industrial Zone is located in the south-eastern part of Addis Ababa.
Akaki Kality Sub city where Kilinto belongs to is located in the South Eastern part of Addis
Ababa. It is one of the ten sub-cities of Addis Ababa and is divided into 11 Woredas. It is 20 kms
far from the city’s center and covers a total area of about 6,143.4 hectares. Kilinto Industrial
Zone (KIZ) is located in the South Eastern part of Addis Ababa, the capital of the Federal
Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, which is located between 80 55’ and 90 05’ North latitude and
380 40’ and 380 50’ East longitude. The proposed IZ falls on an area of 308ha which specifically
is located in in Woreda 9 and 10 of the Sub city.

5.2 Population and Demographic Characteristics
As per the population projection made for 2014 (CSA, 2009), the population of Addis Ababa is
estimated to be 3, 195,000 (composed of 1,515,000 and 1,680,000 male and female populations
respectively) living in 10 Sub-cities and 204 districts divided for administrative purposes. The
ten sub-cities are: Addis Ketema, Lideta, Cherkos, Yeka, Bole, Akaki Kality, Nefas Silk, Kolfe
Keranio and Gulele each with an average of 300,000 people. However, Akaki Kality has still the
lowest number of people from among the 10 sub-cities. It is expected that this picture will
change much within a very short time since it is now serving as a new expansion area for Addis.
Addis Ababa is hosting 30% of the urban population of Ethiopia. The rapid increase in
population is resulting in the expansion of boundary to south east side of the metropolitan area.
As per the 2007 census, the total population of Akaki Kality Sub city was 181,270 (88,714 male
and 92,556 female). According to the Central Statistics Authority (CSA) projections of July
2013, the population of the Akaki Kality Sub city is estimated to reach 205,385 out of which
100,513 are male and 104,872 are female. The Sub city has a population density of 1,653.7 per
square kilometer. The population is comprised of factory workers, civil servants, daily laborers,
merchants, commercial sex workers, farmers and others.
However, the area proposed for the IZ is largely in a rural setting inhabited by farming
communities. As a result, the population density given for the Sub city at large does not reflect
the reality in the project area. Again as per the census of 2007 (CSA 2007), Kilinto, Feche and
Koye which together form Woreda 9 had a population of 5,122 (2,615 male and 2,507 female).
The total number of HHs are 1,143. While Gelan Gura, which forms Woreda 10, had a total
population of 3,903 (2109 male and 1794 female) which comprised of 746 HHs. However, the
current estimates made by the Woreda 9 and 10 Administrations are 8,500 and around 6,000
respectively. Based on the 2007 census, the average household size of the two Woredas is around
5 persons. Nevertheless, the above figure is changing fast since the population is currently
increasing at an alarming rate due to increase in in-migrant labourers who are engaged in the
numerous construction activities going on in and around the project area.
Regarding the type of settlement in the specified Woredas, the inhabitants of the Woredas are
settled in villages locally known as ‘menders’ and zones within each village locally known as
‘Ketana’ which include Kilinto, Feche and Koye in Woreda 10 and Gelan Gura, Kotoma, Gende
Dawa and Bowa in Woreda 10. Houses are concentrated in villages in a sort of nucleus
settlement established during the villagization program of the Military Government in 1977
Ethiopian Calander. Most of the houses have compounds greater than 1000m2 in area.
5.3 Religion, Ethnicity and Language
Though it is difficult to obtain reliable and documented data related to religion, ethnicity and
language of the population of the project area in general, key informant interviews and
discussions with local officials revealed that the population in Gelan Gura (Woreda 10) is
predominantly of Oromo ethnic origin speaking Afan Oromo and followers of the Orthodox
Christian religion. Among an estimated 600 households in Gelan Gura,only about 20 households
are followers of Islam and the remaining large majority are followers of Orthodox Christianity.
There is no Mosque in the Woreda.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 19
It is only when it comes to Woreda 9 (Kilinto), which is closer to the Sub city centre, that one
observes a mix of religion, ethnicity and language, although the majority of the population is still
of Oromo origin speaking Oromifa and adherents of the Orthodox Christian Church. This is
typical of most of the urban fringes of Addis Ababa where there is gradual encroachment of
people and businesses from the city centre.
5.4 Economic Conditions and Livelihood
As explained above, though quite a large number of the populations in the Sub city earn their
living from various types of activities of urban nature such as employment in services and trade,
manufacturing or factory workers, civil servants, etc., the livelihood in the project Woredas is
predominantly agrarian and rural. It is based on mixed farming with a predominance of cereal
farming with little area left for grazing. The livestock economy is largely based on crop residue,
straws after harvests and the very little available grazing land. Average landholding is around
2.5ha which is relatively higher compared with the landholdings of other sedentary farmers in
the country.
According to the livelihood zone analysis of Ethiopia, conducted by Girma Medhin in
consultation with FAO, 2011 (FAO, 2011), the project area belongs to Livelihood zone 13
characterized early sedentary agriculture and relatively abundant rainfall, rain fed production of a
wide-range of highland cereals (teff dominated) and deeply entrenched, traditional crop and
livestock husbandry practices under temperate climatic conditions in the highlands, in which
long years of extractive forms of production, high population and livestock densities have led to
advanced levels of natural resources degradation
Before the depletion of the natural forest cover to its present precarious level, sale of fire wood
and wood for construction as well as sale of forest products used to contribute significantly to
farmers’ livelihoods. Farmers in this system are also engaged, to a certain extent, in petty trade to
augment their income.
As per the discussions and data from the Woreda offices, key informants as well as the Project
Affected Populations (PAPs) themselves, the area is known for its good potential in agricultural
production, especially cereals. It is known for its production of one of the best varieties of teff
(very important staple food in Ethiopia) known as ‘magna teff’. Other annual crops such as
wheat, chickpeas, lentils, and different types of beans are also grown based on established
rotation of crops.
In addition to crop farming the economy of quite a large number of the households is supported
by the possession of a good number of livestock which include oxen used for ploughing, cows
for reproduction and milking and pack animals used for transportation.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 20
According to Akaki Kality Sub city Urban Agriculture Development Office, irrigation is
practiced in an area of 120ha by 223 farming households in the Sub city. The Sub city has the
highest practice of urban agriculture in Addis Ababa. Among the population of the Sub city
about 4,437 households practice urban agriculture. It is based on the practice of growing of
vegetables (gardening), ownership of milking cows, chicken farming, fattening, etc. A total of
910 and 789 farmers practice urban agriculture in Kilinto and Gelan Gura respectively. An
average of 2milking cows which give around 10litres per day and around 50 chickens is very
common in addition to the availability of some oxen and pack animals in most of the households.
Housing conditions in and around the proposed KIZ are also better than many of the rural
settlements in the rest of the country. As indicated earlier, initially, during the villagization
program, an area of 1000 m2 was allotted per household for the construction of houses. As such,
each HH has an average of three houses within the same compound in addition to a separate
kitchen and separate cattle sheds. The houses are mostly made of corrugated iron sheet and walls
made of wooden material and mud plastered with a mix of sand and cement as can be seen from
figure 5.10.
However, recently, as the data from Woreda 9 Administration shows, there is an encroachment
of some other economic developments including industrialization. The construction industry is
now a very important economic sector in the project area. The construction of around 57,000
condominium housing units has reached its finishing stage and a corner stone for the
construction of another 50,000 condominium houses has been laid recently, all in all occupying
hundreds of hectares.
The Consultant has visited an ongoing construction of Heineken Beer Factory near the project
area. As per the information from the construction office, the factory is being built on an area of
25 ha of land and it is designed to produce 1.5 million hectoliters per year. It is employing 500
laborers currently and 250 permanent workers of different skills will be employed at the
operation stage. Among the local population, 40 guards have already been employed in the
factory each earning a monthly gross salary of Birr 1,500.00. Besides, Addis Ababa Science and
Technology University and Tirunesh Beijing Hospital have started operation in the immediate
neighborhood of the IZ. In conclusion what can be said is that the economy in the area is
changing fast from cereal based mixed farming to other types of modern urban economic
activities where only a practice of urban agriculture in small land holding can have the
Figure 5-3:Houses at KIZ at Alan Gura Village Figure 5-2: Heaps of agricultural produce in Alan Gura

possibility of being included. It is expected that economic activity based on crop and livestock
production will soon give way to other types of economic activities since more and more of the
farmland is annually being converted to other forms of economic activities as mentioned above.
5.5 Land Use and Land cover
Agricultural activities that include crop production, cattle breeding and planting trees cover the
major proportion of the project area. Cereal crops like teff, wheat as well as pulses like chickpeas
are dominant crops produced in the area. Therefore, the existing land use type of Kilinto IZ site
is mainly characterized by agriculture with scattered rural settlements.
In addition to the scattered rural settlements, a new expansion of residential areas such as
condominium sites to the west and south of the KIZ have covered a very significant area. The
newly established Addis Ababa Science and Technology University and the Heineken Beer
Factory under construction have also covered a very significant area to the south and south east
of the KIZ. Besides, Akaki town which is situated at around 7 kms away from the IZ is an old
industrial town which harbors a number of industrial clusters that range from light to heavy
industry.
5.6 Access to Social Services
5.6.1 Access to Health
Health services are being provided by two health posts at health extension level in the two
project Woredas. There is no clinic or health centre around the IZ. The health service focuses
mainly on prevention and awareness creation. The ongoing health extension program implements
16 packages focused on sanitation, family planning and HIV. However, the program is poorly
managed and implemented due to lack of medical personnel. Recently, a new health post is
under construction in Kilinto (Woreda 10).
However, at Sub city level, there are 7 health posts and one hospital. Currently, patients are
referred for treatment to the nearby Akaki Health Centre and to Beijing – Tirunesh Dibaba
Hospital which are about 8 kms away. To get such high level health services within the Sub-
city, the community have to walk or travel by any available transport service, which is in most
cases not dependable.
5.6.2 Access to Education
Both Woreda 9 and 10 provide kindergarten and primary schools education up to grade 8. High
schools and other specialized schools are only found in and around the proper Akaki and Beseka
urban area which is more than 7 kms away from the IZ. However, there are 2 Technical and
Vocational Education Training (TVETs) centers in the Sub city that provide training in different
areas of skills and also accommodate short term skill trainings for farmers especially in areas of
urban agriculture and construction.

6 Socio Economic Condition of the PAPs
6.1 General
In general terms, what has been discussed in the preceding chapter with respect to economic and
livelihood conditions of the population of the two affected Woredas also holds true for the PAPs.
However, in order for the RAP to be much more realistic, there is a need to focus more on the
target population which are actually affected by the project (PAPs).
All in all, 245 households comprised of 1,225 family members will be affected by the project and
can be considered as PAPs. The majority, 148 households are from Woereda 9 (Kilinto village),
while 97 households are from Woreda 10 (Alan Gura village).
6.2 Age - Sex Composition
The majority of the households (65%), who are affected by the loss of assets and income
generation are male-headed households while the rest 35% are female-headed. From the 15
households who will lose their dwellings, only 5 (33%) are headed by females. The age
composition of PAPs is indicatedin the table below (See Table 6-1).
Table 6-1: Age composition of PAPs
S.n Age Category Number %
1 < 14 years old 361 29.46
2 15 to 60 792 64.65
3 61> 72 5.89
Total 1225 100
As can be seen from the above table, a large segment of the population (64.65%) can be benefit
from the livelihood restoration measures like job creation schemes, whereas, nearly 35 %
requires special attention due to their vulnerablity.
6.3 Source of Livelihood of the Affected Families
As indicated earlier, the livelihood of the PAPs is predominantly rural agrarian based on mixed
farming practices, predominantly of cereal farming type with little area left for grazing. The
livestock economy is, therefore, dependent on crop residues, straws after harvests and the very
little available grazing land. Average land holding is around 2.5ha which is relatively higher
compared with other sedentary farmers in the country.
6.4 Religion
The majority (more than 90%) of the PAPs in Kilinto and almost all in Gelan Gura villages are
Orthodox Christians.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 23
6.5 Housing Conditions of the PAPs
The housing conditions of the PAPs are no more different from the rest of the housing conditions
in the neighborhood. The houses are concentrated in villages known as ‘Menders’ established
during the villagization program of the former Military Government. Relatively wider
compounds are found in Woreda 10 (Alan Gura) than in Kilinto village.
Each household has an average of three houses within the same compound with separate quarter
for kitchen and cattle sheds. The houses are mostly made of roofs with corrugated iron sheet, and
mud and wood walls.
6.6 Land Holding Size
The land holding size of the PAPs varies from household to household. Even though the
consultant couldn’t find any reliable data on the size of landholdings of each and every project
affected household, based on the discussions with key informants (Woreda Agricultural
Development officers), focus group discussions and PAPs meetings, the average landholding
size has been estimated to be around 2.5ha.
6.7 Crop Production
Teff is the most dominant crop grown in the project area and by all PAPs invariably. The project
area is recognized as one of the most important high quality magna Teff producing areas in the
country. No other crop is grown at an appreciable size of landholding in the project area. Other
annual crops such as wheat, chickpeas, lentils, and different types of beans are also produced
through crop rotation practice.

7 Overview of the Project
The description of the proposed KIZ project presented below is based on the information from
feasibility and master plan studies of the project. The project can be described as one of a mixed-
use industrial complex where the desired industrial/manufacturing development is implemented
in association with essential business offices, commercial, customs, recreation and required
infrastructure developments to make it a state of the art Industrial Park. Accordingly, a
summary of the classification of the major activities that will operate in the Kilinto Industrial
Zone is given in the table below (See Table 7-1).

Parks /Green Areas will be centrally located so as to maintain a view of the industrial park and
minimize environmental pollution. The green areas will be arranged along with parks to enhance
the enjoyment of natural scenery through securing leisure space that will include rest areas and
sports facilities for workers.
As per the feasibility study and the master plan, four main categories of industries namely, Food
and Beverage, Pharmaceutical and Medical, Electronic/electronics, Furniture and Fixtures, and
other miscellaneous manufacturing plants have been recommended for the Kilinto IZ in the
given order of priority as can be seen from tables 6.3 below. The ratio has been given out of the
total area allotted for manufacturing excluding other uses in the land use plan. As can be seen
from the figures, it is anticipated that two major categories i.e. the food and beverage and the
pharmaceutical and medical are going to be dominant.

8 Public Consultations
Consultation with Project Affected Populations (PAPs) and other pertinent stakeholders has been
utilized as a very important tool and methodology in order to gather required data and
information as well as views and opinions of all those concerned with regards to the following:
Implementation of the KIZ
Potential positive outcomes and enhancement measures
Potential negative impacts and mitigation measures
Roles and responsibilities in the ESMP, and RAP and monitoring of the same
Community support and participation, etc.
Consultations have been held in the form of meetings and Focus Group Discussions and Key
Informant Interviews. Some of the consultations made with community and religious leaders as
well as elders and informal leaders were informally conducted during the field work. The aim
was to gather views and opinions regarding the proposed project and expectations.
However, formal consultations were made with the following stakeholders:
Project Affected Persons (PAP),
Community and Religious leaders,
Elders and informal leaders,
Resettlement Committee,
Grievance Redress Committee,
Officials of two vocational training institutions in Akaki
Office of Micro and Small Enterprises of the Sub city,
Office of Compensation and Rehabilitation in Akaki,
Woreda 9 and 10 Administration and Sector Offices,
Kebele Administrations (rural and Urban).
The nature and type of consultations made at different levels and the outcomes are presented as
follows.
A) Federal Ministry of Industry (MoI)
Consultations
Policies, Legal Framework and Institutional Framework for the study design,
construction and operations of the IZ.
Roles and responsibilities of the MoI.
Capacity for management and operation as well as monitoring.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 28
Outcomes
It was confirmed that the MoI, as the
proponent of the IZ project, is making all
necessary efforts and preparations to cope with
any environmental and social problems that can
possibly arise. The MoI has already some
experience with regard to the implementation and
follow up of Environmental and Social
Management Plans (ESMPs) and RAP. Required
information and documents were given by the
Deputy Director of the Directorate of Industrial
Zone Corporation and Environment Safeguard
Team leader. As a result, the role of the MoI in the
implementation of the RAP was reiterated,
reviewed and confirmed. It has been recognized that the Ethiopian Industry Zone
Development Corporation is the highest responsible body for the development and
Administration of industrial zones in the country. Other roles, mandates and
responsibilities of the Corporation were also reviewed with the focus on ESMF and RAP.
Preparations made by way of organizational structure and manpower plan for the
Corporation and its responsibilities during study and design, construction and operation
of industrial zones were discussed at length and documents of the same provided.
B) Akaki Kality Sub city
Consultations
Presentation of the nature and type of the proposed KIZ by the Consultant;
Likely positive and negative impacts;
Roles and responsibilities of the Sub city in the study, design, construction and operation
as well as in the ESMP and RAP and monitoring of the same was discussed at length;
Outcomes
Understanding was gained on the work executed so far, remaining works and the
readiness and preparations made on
the part of the Sub city towards
carrying out the activities related to
ESMP and RAP;
It was recognized that there
are lots of gaps in conducting the
required activities in terms of
additional support (which are part of
administrative tasks) that would
make the RAP more effective.

Figure 8-2: Meeting with Akaki Kality Sub city officials
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 29
The Consultant noted this as a very important issue and recommended budget for local
capacity building tasks to be included in the RAP.
A manual (interface) of expected responsibilities and working mechanism to provide the
required compensation and livelihood restoration was prepared and signed by all
pertinent offices and organizations within the Sub city. This manual is tailored toward the
implementation of the RAP in view of other activities that are anticipated to come in the
Sub city with a potential for permanent expropriation of land and displacement of
farming populations in the Woredas. Hence, it specifies the roles of each and every
stakeholder in handling the preparation of resettlement areas, infrastructural
development, compensation, livelihood restoration through training and job creation, etc.
The manual for expected interface in the advent of any RAP was developed only very
recently and has to be tested practically. The assigned responsibilities reflected in the
manual are based on existing roles, responsibilities and mandates (jurisdictions) of the
different offices. It specifies the roles of small and medium scale enterprise offices with
respect to organizing PAPs, the role of job training institutions, credit and loan office,
land Administration, etc in such a way that they respond properly and timely to the
requirements of the RAP. Generally, the manual is intended to harmonize the activities in
line with the requirements of the RAP.
It was also noted that the necessary preparation should be made to rectify any past gaps,
in relation to required awareness creation, training, job creation, etc for PAPs.
C) Different Pertinent Offices and Organs of the Sub city (Office for the Organization of
Micro and Small Scale Enterprises, Technical and Vocational Education Training
institutions both Akaki TVET and Yenegew Sew TVET were consulted).
Consultations
Discussion on required skill training and upgrading for PAPs;
Capacity of the Office for the Organization of Micro and Small Scale Enterprise and
TVETs in the Sub city in handling training, organizing and job creation activities for
PAPs;
Nature and type of skill and trainings that can be provided to PAPs.
Outcomes
Roles and responsibilities of the above organization with respect to the KIZ RAP were
reviewed and discussed.
List of nature and type of skill trainings as appropriate for the PAPs, time duration
required and training fee for the same was provided by the TVETs.
Budget estimate for the establishment of different and appropriate micro and small scale
enterprises was provided.
This was used as an input for planning required training programs for PAPs.
D) Woreda Administrations (Woreda 9 and 10)
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 30
Consultations
Presentation of the nature and type of the proposed KIZ by the Consultant.
Likely positive and negative impacts.
Roles and responsibilities of the Woredas in the study, design, construction and operation
as well as in the ESMP and RAP and monitoring of the same was discussed at length.
Outcome
Understanding was gained on the readiness and preparations that is being made by the
Woredas with the support and assistance of the Sub city towards carrying out the
activities related to RAP.
Activities that have been initiated already due to earlier knowledge and information about
the KIZ and future plans and programs that will be implemented by the Woredas with
respect to compensation and resettlement issues and capacity building as well as
livelihood restoration were, identified, reviewed and discussed.
E) Project Affected Peoples (PAPs)
Consultations
Consultation with affected persons was made on 15 March, 2014 at the neighborhood
settlement site of Kilinto IZ. For the consultation, it was not possible to get all of the 245
household heads, which consist of about 1,225 individual family members. Thus, only 56
household heads (41 male and 15 female HHs) participated in this consultation. They
were asked why the rest of the PAPs couldn’t participate in the consultation, and they
mentioned that some of the PAPs had several related meetings with respect to this project
by the Administration which started some preparatory work towards the implementation
of the RAP and some PAPs are busy with their own business on the scheduled day. The
agenda of the consultation included:
o Presentation of the nature and type of the proposed KIZ by the Consultant;
o Likely positive and negative impacts;
Figure 8-3: Meetings with Woreda 9 and 10 Officials
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 31
o Views and opinions of the PAPs;
o Roles and responsibilities of the PAPs in the enhancement and mitigation of the
likely positive and negative outcomes respectively;
o Problems and constraints anticipated in the process of executing compensation
and resettlement works;
o Readiness on the part of PAPs in efforts to implement appropriate livelihood
restoration programs;
o Discussion on job preferences of potential PAPs in the event of planning and
implementation of livelihood restoration activities.
Outcomes.
All of the consulted community groups welcomed the IZDP. The PAPs invariably made
it clear that the development activities initiated in their respective areas and the
surroundings are for the benefit of the country at large and the population around. They
expect that the project will contribute for improving the livelihood of the community.
The recognition [by government counterparts] of the need for orientation and appropriate
implementation of compensation and livelihood restoration works will help to increase
confidence on the part of the PAPs and to ensure strong cooperation for similar endeavors
by the Government in the future.
PAPs expressed their hope and expectation for appropriate coordination and timely
execution of the required compensation, and livelihood restoration tasks.
The PAPs also understood that after they get compensation for their lost land, those who
lost some portions of their farmland can use the remaining farmlands and areas in their
homesteads for their livelihood restoration efforts. It was confirmed in the meeting that
there is no household that could lose the entire farmland (see livelihood restoration).
Even though consolidated and reliable data on the exact size of the remaining farmland of
each household was not found at the moment, it was revealed in the meeting and from
key informants in the Woredas that each of the PAPs still possess around 1.5ha of their
farmlands. This was taken as a positive aspect for the implementation of a livelihood
restoration program of land-agriculture based strategy as will be explained later.
The PAPs also expressed their hope and expectations with respect to the provision of
basic infrastructure like water, road, electricity and others at the resettlement site before
actual relocation takes place.
The meeting also emphasized the need for the commitment of government to ensure the
timely release of the necessary funds to pay compensations and give the needed support
to implement the livelihood restoration measures within a short period of time.
There is also a major concern on the project and its components, particularly in terms of
availability and functionality of waste treatment facilities. Participants clearly stated that
their surrounding environment should not be a place for improper waste disposal.
Participants raised concern that priorities for project benefits such as job employment and
other opportunities may not be given to the affected (local residence) and clearly stated
that they will cooperate in measures that will be taken for livelihood restoration.
However, government representative in the meeting responded to this issue by stating
that procedures and mechanisms for job benefits that give priority to PAPs have already
been set at city and Sub-city level.

There was a clear understanding on their part that pollution will be a burden to the local
communities and the environment unless strong monitoring is implemented during
construction and operation of the project. During the consultation, it was mentioned that
the issue has already been taken care by the ESIA study conducted for the project. It was
also revealed that state of the art technology of modern industrial parks that abate
pollution are expected to be implemented.
Finally a questionnaire for job preferences for livelihood restoration and essential characteristics
of the PAPs was filled out (sample of the questionnaire is indicated on the annex page 98 of this
RAP). Results and findings have been utilized in the planning of livelihood restoration.
In summary the outcomes of the consultations indicate:
All of the consulted community groups indicated their willingness and showed their
eagerness and social acceptance of the IZDP with caution that the project should give
due attention to environmental and social issues, specifically during the operation
phase to prevent the surrounding community from pollution related health effects.
Project proponent and the consultant team affirmed that they will incorporate
appropriate waste management design and technology as addressed in the ESIA.
The meeting emphasized the need for ownership and commitment of government to
ensure the release of the necessary funds to pay off compensations and give the needed
support to implementing resettlement action plan within a short period.
Another outcome of the consultations was that, the Sub city should provide basic
infrastructures like water, road, electricity and others within the resettlement site for
affected People before actual relocation of PAPs takes place.
There was confirmation that the proposed resettlement area has better access to
infrastructure like potable water, road, electricity, etc, and this was confirmed by the
consultant by visiting the area for resettlement in Yeshi Total area.
It is also confirmed that the concern and doubts on the side of the PAPs regarding
benefiting from the job opportunities that would come along with IZDP will be taken
care of by the MoI and the Sub city as part of the livelihood restoration program.
Special support will be made by the Woreda and the community for any vulnerable
group as well as female-headed households affected by the IZ project in terms of
provision of appropriate site for resettlement, transporting belongings, jobs creation
and business advice, etc.
Government will facilitate the smooth implementation of the construction works and
provide other routine administrative supports if needed.
It is also expected that the construction of the project will enhance development and
growth, and contribute to poverty reduction.
The above outcomes of consultation with PAPs were discussed at length with the Woreda
Administration representatives who attended the meeting for the purpose of communicating the
outcomes of the consultations to the Woreda and Sub city Administrations. All potential
problems and concerns raised and the overall outcome of the proposed RAP has been
communicated to higher officials. There was also meetings with woreda officials to discuss the
outcomes of the consultation where emphasis was given to the development of procedures and

mechanisms in order to respond to the identified concerns and risks. Accordingly, all concerned
parties agreed to deal with the concerns raised.

9 Impact Analysis
9.1 General (Basis for the Impact Analysis)
It is recognized that such an organized IZ development is the first of its kind in Ethiopia. The
country’s preference for IZ is based on experience elsewhere in some other countries, mainly
Asian countries. IZ development emanates from the desire to solve land use constraints,
management, environmental constraints, etc., that arise due to unplanned dispersed industrial
establishments.
As is now widely known, the Ministry of Industry (MoI) envisages developing both the Bole-
Lemi II and Kilinto sites within the framework of current concepts, knowledge and technology
of the “state-of-art” industrial zones (IZs). They are to be developed on the principle of (i) being
eco-friendly, (ii) possessing flexibility, and (iii) maintaining quality work environment. It is
expected that these concept of development will have a very important bearing on the
management of environmental resources. As such, proposed master plan study of the Kilinto IZ,
which has already incorporated basic environmental principles as well as facilities expected to
reduce and minimize if not totally eliminate much of the potential negative impacts on the socio-
economic and biophysical environment.
However, the most important factor as far as the potential adverse socio economic impacts are
concerned is the relatively huge land requirement of KIZ. The fact that the nature of the project
requires the construction and implementation of an Industrial Zone which consists of different
types of industrial categories with adequate space for the manufacturing, supporting
infrastructure, businesses and commercial activities has made land requirement to be relatively
higher. The impact of the other interventions such as transmission lines and distribution lines that
are designed mainly to follow the road master plan and to incorporate existing networks is
minimal. Hence, the major socioeconomic impact is the one related to Involuntary Settlement
as explained below.
9.2 Potential Positive Impacts
In addition to contributing to the fulfillment of higher national objectives of gaining hard
currency by way of getting more and more export earnings and the saving of the meagre hard
currency that the country possesses by way of more and more import substitution the
development of the Kilinto IZ will also have other major benefits that include but not limited to
9.2.1 Creation of job and employment opportunity
The construction of the IZ involves massive works of excavation and land levelling and grading,
roads and pipelines construction, masonry, plumbing, carpentry, electrical and water supply
works that create huge job opportunity. This can be weighed with respect to the number of
people that need to be engaged in the design and system work to start with and the very huge
working force to be actually engaged in the construction work. It is expected that this
opportunity in job creation can improve the incomes of the project area communities and other
migrant workers. It can also be very supportive to the efforts that are expected to be made in
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 35
restoring the livelihood of project affected populations particularly the young, both male and
female alike by way of the RAP.
The requirement for the construction of the numerous manufacturing industries, office and public
buildings as well other support facilities of IZ on an area of more than 300ha is estimated to be in
the order of tens of thousands.
9.2.2 Enhancement of capacity building and technology
The proposed IZ will also be very important for skill transfer and capacity building in all
components for future endeavors of similar nature since it is expected to be the first of its kind.
Those engaged in the construction work can later on be employed for jobs that require better
skills and make them earn more in areas such masonry, carpentry, plumbing, wood and electrical
work, etc.
9.2.3 Enhancement of market and investment in the construction and service sector
It is also clearly recognized that such a huge construction work as that of the IZ will boost
investment in the construction sector due to requirements of various construction materials and
equipment and services and transit work that need to be provided locally and from abroad.
9.3 Potential Negative Impacts
9.3.1 Impacts of Land Acquisition and Loss of Income Generation
The Project is to acquire permanently 308ha of arable land. The arable land to be acquired is in
use by farming communities residing in and around the project area. The most adverse socio-
economic impacts of the project are, therefore, the dispossession of farmland and displacement
of farmers from their agricultural land and residences. The establishment of the proposed
industrial zone will involve demolishing of houses and loss of annual and perennial crops and
trees. The major impact is therefore related with economic activities of households as well as
disruption of their social and cultural setting in the existing neighborhoods.
Based on the study conducted, the implementation of Kilinto Industrial Zone will involve the
dispossession of farmlands and grazing land of 245 farming households consisting of 161 male-
headed and 84 female-headed households for a total of 245 households or 1,225 individuals or
PAPs residing within the 308ha of land incorporated by the Industrial Zone from Woreda 9 and
10 of Akaki Kality Sub city of Addis Ababa. From these PAPs, 15 households will have to
relocate permanently. Hence, a total land of 288ha and 57ha of farmland and grazing land
respectively is to be expropriated. Furthermore, around 1.5ha of homestead areas will be
demolished and the land will be incorporated. Though the remaining 12ha of land which is
mainly occupied by valleys of streams and foot paths that crosses the 308ha of land allotted for
the IZ, and will never affect PAPs’ access to sources of water and mobility. The impact of land
acquisition in terms of loss of farmland and grazing land and the number of households affected
from both Woreda 9 and 10 is given in the table on land acquisition below.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 36
Table 9-1: Land Acquisition by KIZ
9.3.2 Impact on Farmland
Land is the main asset and source of livelihood for the PAPs. Farming is the most important
activity and almost all of the 294ha allotted permanently for the IZ is a potential agricultural land
unlike other areas where some marginal land is found in between. It consists of 288ha of
farmland and nearly 6ha of grazing land, with an average farm area of about 1.2ha and grazing
land of 232m2 each. This is almost half of the average 2.5ha productive farmland of the
households. It also includes a few parcels of grazing land. The site is used to grow crops like teff,
wheat, chickpea, linseed, and the grazing lands are used for keeping cattle, sheep and donkeys.
9.3.3 Impact on Housing Structures and Homesteads (Involuntary Resettlement)
The implementation of the Kilinto industrial zone will involve the demolition and relocation of
the houses located within the project site. The major impact on housing and population
dislocation is the loss of houses and compounds of 15 rural households in Woreda 10 (Alan
Gura) which consist more than 75 family members. They will also lose their homesteads which
are large enough and have been accounted with farmland to be lost by the households. As
indicated earlier, there are two to three houses within a homestead consisting of mostly one big
house made of wood and mud plastered wall and corrugated iron sheet roofs. There are some
cultural grass thatched houses within the compounds. All of the affected houses do not have
infrastructure like electric power supply and water supply services. The findings also indicate
that the majority of the project affected people were living in their own houses.

9.3.4 Disruption of Social and Cultural Ties
During the consultation, it was expressed by some members of the population that their
relocation is a disturbing experience in a sense that they feel some discomfort by the very idea
moving away from their original place or place of their ancestors and the disruption of their
social and cultural ties. However, they stated that this will be compensated by better housing
conditions in the resettlement area, which is in Yeshi Debele TOTAL area situated along the
main highway from Addis Ababa to Debrezeit. The resettlement site selection has been made in
consultation with PAPs and considering the proximity to the old neighborhood, access to basic
social services and amenities. Impact on Vulnerable Groups.
The negative impacts of the resettlement program mentioned above can be harsher on those who
cannot adequately cope. As has been indicated earlier, from the survey conducted out of the total
number of 245 households affected, 84 of them (34%) are women headed and there are around
20 PAPs with ages ranging from 65 to 90 years old that can be regarded as vulnerable. Children
under 14 years of age are also close to 1/3 of the population. There is one person with disability
among the PAPs using a wheel-chair. However, his house is not to be relocated. The mechanisms
of assistance to vulnerable groups are discussed under the chapter on mitigation.
9.3.5 Impact on Public and Community Institutions
As far as the area of around 308ha of land already included in the KIZ is concerned, observations
made by transect walking and discussion held with affected Kebele representatives, community
elders and the Google map of the area indicate that it is largely occupied by farms and a small
area of grazing land. As such, there is no impact on social services facilities like public
buildings, schools, health facilities, water supply and religious institutions (churches and
mosques). Therefore, no compensation measures will be required for loss of such infrastructure.
9.3.6 Impact on the Land Use
The IZ site requires a large piece of land. Plots of land required for this purpose would be
permanently transformed. Substantial area of land would be required for the construction of the
different categories of industries, public offices, garages and warehouses, parks, etc permanently
transforming agricultural land under a rural land use setting to an Industrial Zone with a
completely different land use. The extent and impact on the land use change can be easily
realized when one looks into the land use categories recommended by the master plan in an area
of about 308ha as shown in chapter 6 on overview of the project.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 38
10 Proposed Mitigation Measures
Mitigation measures are proposed based on the GoE's Proclamation No. 455/2005 and
Regulation no. 135/2007 and WB policy on involuntary resettlement (OP/BP 4.12) explained
earlier. Accordingly, a policy framework had been developed by the GoE in a detailed manner to
be implemented by each regional and/or city Administration. In all cases, the mitigation
measures and packages of compensation recommended are established at replacement cost based
on the guidelines (Guideline No. 3/2010, No. 3/2012 and No. 3/2014) of the Addis Ababa City
Administration, which is consistent with the Federal level proclamation and theWorld Bank’s
policy, i.e. compensation at replacement cost without depreciation.
Compensation option
Under a very favorable situation, minimizing of land acquisition to what is essentially required
and compensation of land for land could have been the preferred option for mitigation. But the
reality on the ground does not allow the implementation of such mitigation measures. To start
with, as discussed earlier, the area and its surroundings has already been designated as an
industrial zone as per the master plan. Secondly, the project area is located in the urban fringe,
which is gradually being integrated with the city in recent years due to new urban development
plan. There is no more chance of utilizing the area for the development of rural agriculture as it
used to be. Hence, the compensation of farmland for farmland is not considered as an option due
to scarce land. As a result, the compensation for farmland and grazing land is determined as cash
compensation at real replacement cost including transaction costs based on current market price
without depreciation as per legislations and regulations (which is annually assessed and
calculated by the City Administration to take in to account market trends in the preceding five
years before expropriation).
With regards to the PAPs to be affected by demolition of their houses, for reasons discussed
above, the appropriate option is to relocate those PAPs to areas not far away from their current
location and neighborhood. To this effect, houses and associated assets are valued at replacement
cost based on current market price without depreciation as per the regulations and guidelines of
Addis Ababa City Government, which is in line with the WB policy. All mobilization costs and
other temporary transitional assistances will be provided by Akaki Kaliti Sub-city Land
Administration Office.
Resettlement measures
The proposed resettlement area is around 5kms away from the project area. The area has been
proposed considering distance, access to social services and amenities. In addition, this site has
been proposed in compliance with the master plan of Akaki Kality Sub-city and the involvement
of members of the resettlement implementation committee and PAPs Representatives. Besides,
taking the objective reality in Akaki Kality, where demand for resettlement area is pressurizing
the administration, the proposed resettlement area is found to be fairly evaluated in terms of
availability of social and physical infrastructures and distance from services and amenities.
Moreover, PAPs to be relocated did not raise any major problem as far as the proposed site is
concerned.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 39
Regarding the budget allocation cost of mobilization, house rent and other inconveniences that
might require temporary transitional solutions will be part of the budget allocated in the RAPs.
All the costs are calculated as per the regulation of Addis Ababa City Administration (Regulation
3/2010) which clearly states the basis for estimation and the formulae for calculation.
Accordingly, house rent payment for each of the 15 dislocated households is calculated based on
the formulae set in the regulation (Built-up area (m2) X 40 Birr X 12 Months) for one year
anticipating the resettlement process will be accomplished within one year. The process was not
finalized during the field visit. However, the Consultant has put his estimates based on the
regulation), and government has agreed that during compensation payment the actual market
value will be used.
The resettlement measures will assist each category of eligible project affected persons to
achieve the objectives of the policy of GoE and WB. In line with the different provisions
explained earlier, the following mitigation measures are developed in response to policies and
regulations and issues emphasized by the PAPs with respect to the impacts of the project on their
livelihood.
o Compensation for physical assets owned, like house structures and fences;
o Compensation for their farmland and grazing land;
o Provision of relocation allowance (transfer and installation); and
o Provision of compensation for livelihood interruptions and income restoration.
Assistance to Vulnerable Groups
The types and number of vulnerable project-affected households has been indicated in section
9.3.5 above. Vulnerable groups are specially exposed to the risks of impoverishment and
destitution. Targeted assistance measures are, therefore, necessary to cushion vulnerable groups
from these risks. In this regard the most important point to note is that for the very poor and
vulnerable groups of PAPs the benefits from compensation will be very limited because their
assets are very small to begin with and it will take time before the benefits from income
restoration measures are realized. Hence, there is need to provide additional support to the
vulnerable groups to facilitate faster adjustment in the new environment and impacts associated
with the project. Accordingly the following measures are identified:
Continuous consultations by the project implementing unit.
Priority in site selection in the host areas.
Relocation near to old residential area.
Assistance and help in dismantling and transporting salvageable materials from their
original home.
Priority access to other assistances (job opportunities and trainings).
All of the above mitigation measures have been taken into account as part of this RAP.
Summary of major types of resettlement loss and mitigation measures required is given in table

11 Entitlement and Eligibility of Affected Persons
This section provides the framework for entitlement for each category of impacts that have been
discussed already.
The criterion for eligibility for affected persons is contained in World Bank involuntary
resettlement policy and the GOE proclamation (proclamation 455/2005; Regulation No,
135/2007) as well as the guidelines set for land and housing replacement and compensation by
the Addis Ababa City Administration (Guideline No. 3/2010). Besides, subsequent guidelines
have been taken in to account to determine the entitlement and eligibility of project affected
persons.
To this effect, a census of PAPs had been conducted and an inventory was made on assets and
property that will be lost (which, in the context of this project, is basically loss of farmland and
grazing land as well as physical assets associated with demolishing of housing and dislocation).
The cutoff-date for compensation eligibility has been set after all detailed inventory of assets and
measurements and consultation meetings with the PAPs had been completed.
A cut-off date of July 31st, 2014 was set for all PAPs to respond to both the baseline survey and
the census documentations. Only PAPs that responded and met the cut-off date will be
considered for any form of compensation or assistance or person who for the first time occupies
the land after that date will not be eligible for compensation.
All project affected structure owners and users who lose land, building/houses, or sources of
income will be compensated or rehabilitated according to the type and amount of their losses
based on the census and inventory of lost assets conducted. All compensation/assistance shall be
paid before relocation/displacement so as to allow the family to construct new house before
evacuation from the present location.
The entitlement matrix in Table 11-1 below defines the eligibility for compensation and
rehabilitation assistance for impacts/losses for different types of assets for different category of
project affected persons.

12 Compensation Framework and Asset Valuation
12.1 Approach to Compensation
The primary objective of this RAP is to restore the income and living standard of the affected
persons. The first step in such a process is to compensate for assets and properties that will be
lost by the PAPs due to the implementation of the proposed project. This, of course, will be
followed by other income and livelihood restoration provisions.
The strategy adopted for compensation of the affected properties /assets follows the Federal
Government and Regional Government laws and regulations. The RPF developed for this project
has been utilized at length. The compensation approach adopted in this RAP reflects the FDRE’s
Proclamation 455/2005; Regulation No, 135/2007, the proclamation issued by Addis Ababa City
Administration and WB policy on involuntary resettlement (OP 4.12).
All properties and assets (houses, crop/grazing lands, farm trees etc.) affected by the project
should be assessed and valued at full replacement cost based on current market price.
In addition, PAPs will be entitled to transitional assistance which includes moving expenses,
residence, employment training and income support. In general, the compensation approach will
address the following four questions:
what to compensate for (e.g. land, structures, business, fixed improvements or temporary
impacts, lost income);
how to compensate;
when to compensate; and
how much to compensate.
12.2 Principles of compensation
According to the legal and policy requirement of Ethiopian government and the World Bank, the
principles of compensation and entitlements established for the project are as follows.
The extent and amount of compensation offered by the project to affected landowners
and users will depend on the amount and type of land and /or assets that are impacted.
Land owners and users will be compensated for lost assets based on the Ethiopian law
and World Bank’s involuntary policy; and, in the case of a discrepancy between the two,
it is the World Bank’s policy which will prevail.
PAPs are adequately informed on eligibility, compensation rates and standards.
No land acquisition or works will take place prior to compensation and resettlement of
the PAPs.
The principles in appraising the properties affected by the KIZ and in preparing the
compensation include;
Compensating for any losses in net income since the provision of equivalent replacement
land for long term losses was not possible under this project’s objective reality and
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 47
Focus on restoring annual income or livelihood restoration which includes other
supporting measures.
12.3 Basis for Valuation of Losses
This is a core section of the RAP in which the framework for valuation and compensation of
assets affected by the project are presented in detail. Proper valuation needs to be undertaken in
order to provide PAPs with adequate compensation for the assets they would lose based on
resettlement policies and regulations. The strategy adopted for the expropriation and
compensation of the affected properties/assets follows the Federal Government laws and
regulation for valuation and compensation estimate. In addition to the FDRE laws and
regulations, the law and regulations of the City Government and other supplementary guidelines
as well as WB policies are considered to properly consider replacement cost for the lost assets.
This RAP builds on World Bank's policy on involuntary resettlement (OP/BP 4.12). The Bank's
policy addresses the need for the treatment of project impacts, which cannot be avoided. The
policy objectives of OP 4.12 are either to avoid or minimize involuntary resettlement; if carried
out to execute as sustainable development program and to provide assistance to displaced
persons so that they could be able to restore or improve their livelihood. Hence, the basis for
valuation is the legal principles and framework for expropriation and compensation incorporated
in FDRE’s Proclamation 455/2005; Regulation No, 135/2007.
Accordingly, the Addis Ababa City Administration has established Land Development and
Urban Renewal Agency and has also been setting regulations and guidelines for executing
compensation and livelihood restoration activities. Hence, valuation of assets is done as per the
policies, legislations and regulations stated above. Based on the compensation proclamation, the
City Administration has employed the principle of replacement cost and compensation at market
cost for valuation of lost assets. Replacement cost approach is based on the premise that the costs
of replacing productive assets that have been damaged because of project activities need to be
fully compensated. The Replacement Cost Method is used in estimating the value of an asset
based on the assumption that the capital value of an existing development can be equated to the
cost of reinstating the development on the same plot at the current labour, material and other
incidental costs (market price) without depreciation. The estimated value represents the cost of
the property as if new, i.e. ignoring depreciation cost and also includes all transactional and
transitory costs.
12.4 The Valuation Process
In order to provide PAPs with adequate compensation for the assets they would lose, proper
valuation is undertaken by the compensation committee whose members have been identified
under the chapter on Institutions and Organizations for the RAP. The committee, in close
consultation with PAPs and in collaboration with the local experts and administration, reviews
and establishes the unit rate for the affected assets to be determined on the basis of replacement
cost at market value.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 48
A) Compensation for farmland and grazing land to be lost permanently
As indicated earlier, 288ha of farmland and nearly 6ha of privately owned grazing land
strips will be expropriated permanently. The estimation for compensation of size of farm
land and grazing land was made as per Regulation No, 135/2007 which considers
productivity of the land and income to be lost. It is estimated by taking the average
annual income secured during the five years preceding the expropriation and multiplying
it by ten.
In order to provide PAPs with adequate compensation for the assets they will lose, proper
valuation had been undertaken by the property valuation committee. The committee, in
close consultation with the PAPs and in collaboration with the local experts and the
Woreda Administrations, reviewed and established the unit rate for the affected assets
which is determined on the basis of market value. The market value will be reviewed and
updated depending on the market price of the lost assets in the preceding five years.
Based on the survey results and data recorded) on the size of farmland and grazing land
to be expropriated from each PAP, the final compensation rate and the amount to be paid
is calculated. The size of the farmland and grazing land which will be lost and the
estimated amount of compensation is given in table 12.1 below.
Table 12-1: Estimated Compensation for farmland and grazing-land
N.B - The list of PAPs and estimated amount of compensation is given in the annex.
B) Compensation for housing structures
Buildings/houses of the 15 PAPs to be relocated and resettled are valued at replacement
cost based on the current market price of construction materials with which they had been
built. Materials utilized for construction of roofing, walls and fencing are measured by
surveyors and engineers from the Sub-city. Like what is done for farmland and grazing
land, final compensation rate and the amount to be paid for housing structures and
construction cost is calculated by Akaki Kality Sub-city Land Administration and
Management Office together with representatives of the PAPs in the compensation
committee.

The payment to be effected for housing structures which includes building cost plus 20%
variant is estimated to be Birr 1,046,992.00. In addition to the compensation amount
calculated for housing structures, 12 months/one year/ house rent, has been determined
based on the formulae which is set every year based on assessments of house rent in the
respective areas which is to be endorsed by Council of Addis Ababa City Administration.
Accordingly, PAPs in the project area will be entitled to a house rent of 12 months based
on a formulae, i.e. Built-up area of each PAP (m2) x 40 Birr x 12 months. Thus, the total
bulilt-up area of the 15 HHs is estimated to be around 1200m2. Therefore, an estimated
amount of Birr 576,000.00 needs to be paid in the form of house rent and a total of Birr
7,500.00 is allotted for transportation and mobilization.
C) Land provision for resettlement
With regards to the resettlement site, it is to be noted that as per the Master Plan of the
Addis Ababa city Administration, Akakai Kality Sub-city possesses a large area allotted
for the development of industries. The coming of new industries has been increasing in
the last few years. As a result, a resettlement site, where basic infrastructural services
such as water supply, electricity, etc., have been installed, has already been identified for
the people to be displaced from KIZ development site and other areas.
Hence, the host community has already been aware of new comers and the 15 households
that will have to be relocated will not face any protest from the host neighborhood. The
PAPs are going to be resettled in the neighborhood which is called ‘Yeshi TOTAL’ area
of Akaki Kality Sub city, which is around 5kms away from the existing settlement area of
the PAPs. In this regard, no complaint has been received, neither from the host
community and nor from the PAPs.
Land allotment for the PAPs for the construction of new houses at the resettlement site
will be made based on the size of lost property, inheritance status and family size of
PAPs, i.e. as per the Regulation 3/2010 of Addis Ababa City Administration.
Accordingly, household heads with a family size of more than five (8 out of the 15 HH)
will be entitled to 375m2 area of land and households with less than 5 family size (1 HH)
will be entitled to 250 m2 area of land.
Any relation with inheritance approved by court will also be entitled to a 250m2 of land.
Any married son or daughter of the household head who used to reside in houses built in
the same compound (6 out of the 15 HH fall in this category and are entitled to get 105m2
of land for the construction of new house in the proposed resettlement area. The purpose
of such considerations reflects the sensitive concern given by the government so as to
minimize further vulnerability due to displacement, induced family disruption,
homelessness and insecurity.

13 Livelihood Restoration Program
This chapter consists of the plan for income restoration for PAPs and communities affected by
the project. Livelihood restoration is an important component for the resettlement of PAPs who
have lost their productive base, jobs, or other income sources, regardless of whether they have
also lost their houses or not. The livelihood restoration program is the most important as far as
the RAP of KIZ is concerned as indicated the livelihood of more than 1200 persons has been
negatively affected due to productive agricultural land acquisition and dislocation.
Experience in other RAPs conducted elsewhere in the country shows that it is a program which
for many reasons is either overlooked or is not properly implemented to address the needs of
PAPs. The basis for the livelihood restoration program has to be basically the World Bank′s
involuntary resettlement Policy OP 4.12 which shall be adhered to. Among the objectives of this
policy, the most important one with respect to livelihood restoration program is the objective that
states the need to assist displaced persons in improving their former living standards, income
earning capacity, and production levels, or at least in restoring them.
Where it is not feasible to avoid resettlement, resettlement activities should be conceived and
executed as Sustainable Development Programs, providing sufficient investment resources to
enable the persons displaced by the project to share in project benefits. They should also be
assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore
them, in real terms, to pre‐displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of the
project implementation, whichever is higher.
The general objective of the plan is to enable PAPs not only to restore their income but also to
improve their standard of living through a set of integrated strategies and assistance measures by
the project implementing agency.
In livelihood restoration, issues such as source of livelihood (monetary and non-monetary),
availability of land for replacement (if possible), existing skills of PAPs, employment
opportunities and income restoration options will be considered. For PAPs who have lost their
assets, income restoration plans or programmers may require support services in the long and
short term basis as discussed under the chapter on mitigation of impacts.
The short term support plans include provision of employment opportunities at project
construction site. Long-term income restoration involves land and non-land-based economic
activities that will provide a sustained source of income over a longer period of time.
The livelihood restoration program recommended is based on the results of surveys regarding the
socio-economic characteristics of the PAPs, basically their capacities, preferences and objective
reality on the ground in terms potential business environment. These include a range of
possibilities as detailed below. The most important is the implementation of small business plans
that include awareness creation, training, project formulation support, availing of working area
and other required facilities and funding.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 51
More importantly, livelihoods restoration activities have been selected by communities
themselves, guided by a list of potential activities as options, with sensitization carried out and
informed by exposure to professional and technical services provided by the project. Based on
activities selected, groups and/or individuals develop appropriate plans and trainers with
expertise in specific livelihood activities will be retained for short periods to provide hands-on
instruction for participants.
As indicated in the chapter on mitigation, a survey has been conducted in order to assess job
preferences of PAPs that would be considered for different employments required for livelihood
restoration. The following options were listed based on the choice of PAPs during a meeting
session with the community. These include:
Engagement in urban agriculture (fattening, dairy, chicken farm and horticulture)
Trade businesses (buying and selling of cereals and other food crops, livestock, etc)
Services (food preparation, hair dressing, tailoring, etc)
Construction Activities (masonry, carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, metal work,
cobble stone, etc)
However, the result of the survey questionnaire for job preference showed that 100% of the
PAPs put engagement in urban agriculture as their first preference. Others were included as
second and third preferences. This is basically due to the fact that the PAPs have lost only part of
their farmland. As indicated earlier, all PAPs have been reported to have a minimum of 1ha of
agricultural land under their possession in areas which are not very far from the project locality.
Besides, only 15 of the 245 HHs are to be relocated and this group will also have some
remaining farmlands in their place of origin. Moreover, the area of land that will remain as part
of the homesteads is also large (ranging from 500 to 1000m2). Thus, a given HH will keep hold
of an average landholding size of 1.5ha, which can be considered for further livelihoods
restoration actions with the support to be provided by the government.
Though other livelihood restoration measures will be taken on the basis of comprehensive needs
assessment that is to be done in the near future, for budgeting purposes only, introducing
businesses in urban agriculture has been proposed for a potential 245 households considering at
least one urban agriculture business for one HH. Such business recommendation has been made
in consultation with the PAPs and based on their interests reflected during consultations.
However, in order to mitigate the negative impacts that might emanate from the implementation
of the KIZ, putting in place a comprehensive package/program for livelihood restoration through
capacity buildings and tailored trainings will be important and recommended. Therefore, a
detailed assessment on the needs of the PAPs should be made for which budget support is
included.
It is also recommended that the detailed study on comprehensive package program on livelihood
restoration consists of five fundamental categories, which are discussed below.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 52
13.1 Implementation of an awareness creation program
There is a felt need to give assistance and orientation to PAPs on ways and means of coping with
social related problems and new realities. PAPs will have to be aware on how to cope with the
socioeconomic problems that may face them after relocation.
Hence, the provision of awareness creation workshops and other efforts with the involvement of
experts in the required areas of knowledge and the Administration through its resettlement and
livelihood restoration case team becomes very important.
13.2 Organizing the project affected people (PAP) in SME
As has been indicated in the section on the status and conditions of PAPs, more than 65% of the
PAPs are in the category of the working age group. As per the questionnaire survey conducted,
most of the PAPs, especially the able bodied ones, have shown interest and desire to engage
themselves in Small and Micro Enterprises (SMEs) of urban agriculture type. As indicated
earlier, the homesteads and compounds of most of the PAPs are wide enough to accommodate
such activities. This could be a good start for the intended livelihood restoration programs.
Currently, in Ethiopia, SMEs are proving to be the driving forces of the country’s Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) and they are also the primary sources of new job creation. For these
reasons, the Government including the Addis Ababa City Government and sub-cities have
established responsible bodies in charge of SMEs. There is already policy and strategy as well as
mechanism for people affected by land expropriation and loss of asset income due to project
implementation to be organized in SMEs. Hence, the Small and Micro Enterprises Bureau and
office at both city and Sub city level respectively need to implement and coordinate such a study
and mobilize resources to implement such livelihood restoration programs based on the study.
There seems to be a good start in the planning and programming of such activities in Akaki –
Kaliti Sub city which could serve as a lesson to other areas as well.
13.3 Providing formal and non-formal training
The anticipated problem in restoring the livelihood of PAPs is the limitation in technical capacity
to engage in other field of activities and even in urban agricultural businesses preferred by the
PAPs. Therefore, capacity building of the PAPs through rigorous training in the respective field
of engagement should be the major part of the mitigation measures. The areas of interest of the
PAPs, both men and women, need to be reviewed and studied further. Then, development of
tailored formal and non-formal training will be essential to make job creation and livelihood
restoration programs successful. There are two government TVET centres within Akaki Kality
Sub city which have adequate experience in giving formal and informal trainings that suit to
most of the preferences indicated by the PAPs. The TVETs can be utilized for this purpose by
enhancing their capacity through the provision of required raw materials, machinery and tools,
additional facilities and manpower.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 53
13.4 Providing employment in the Industrial Zone
As an outcome of the consultation process with the PAPs, participants raised their concern that
priorities for project benefits such as employment and other opportunities in the proposed
industrial zone may not be given to the PAPs. As indicated in the ESIA study of the same
project, employment in the proposed industrial zone and in the other proposed areas of work
should not be viewed as something complicated. As per the assessment of the education profile
of the PAPs, there are tens and hundreds of PAPs who already have basic education which can
serve as a springboard for the trainings and capacity buildings required for the jobs to be created.
Short-term training assessments have been conducted by the consultant with the collaboration of
the Technical and Vocational Educational Training (TVETs) and the Woreda Micro and Small
Scale Enterprises Promotion Office which assert the possibility of realizing the proposed
livelihood restoration program.
It has to be clearly endorsed institutionally that, given the same skill and capability to handle a
job, priority of employment has to be given to PAPs who have lost their means of income fully
or partially due to land acquisition by the IZ. This requires clear motivation and dedication on
the part of government. There should also be institutional interface designed to implement such a
program among relevant sectors in Akaki Kality Sub city.
13.5 Providing other employment
Along with the employment opportunity to be created in the IZ, the KIZDP is also ideal for off-
site job creation efforts due to the multitude of activities emerging in the surrounding area.
However, this has to be backed up through formal and non-formal training provisions for PAPs
owing to their little entrepreneurial and business skills to engage in non-agricultural activities .
Therefore, efforts shall be made:
To create employments in other off-site job opportunities expected to flourish in the
locality provision of different services required for the huge population to be employed in
the KIZ at different income levels such as catering for food and lodging, shopping,
entertainment, hair dressing, laundry, etc.
To create conducive atmosphere for PAPs to be self-employed in different areas of urban
agriculture activities such as dairy farm, fattening, chicken farm, etc which are very
prospective in terms of existing and future demand for their produces.
13.6 Taking care of vulnerable groups
Vulnerable groups need special attention and shall be considered for additional assistance to
ensure that they are supported to get utmost benefit from compensation entitlement and other
impact mitigation measures. This will be the responsibility of Akaki Kality Sub city and the
respective Woreda 09 and 10 Administrations. The assistance might include:
Priority in specific plot area selection in the resettlement site.
Relocation near to kin and former neighbors.
Assistance in dismantling and transporting salvageable materials from their original
home.
Priority for access to development assistance.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 54
Besides, some of the entrepreneurial activities that will be designed as part of the livelihood
restoration effort need to be geared towards satisfying the needs of vulnerable groups.

14 Grievance Redress Mechanism
Conflicts or complaints may arise through the process of compensation for different reasons,
including disagreement on the compensation amount during valuation for assets, controversial
issue on property ownership, etc. To address the problem of PAPs during implementation of
compensation, a grievance redress committee has been established in project affected Kebelles.
The GRC is composed of representative of woreda Administration as chairman of the committee,
representative of woreda Agriculture and Rural Development Officer, representative of kebele
Administration, two representatives of PAPs, and an elder from the community. These
representatives need to make all preparations to hear complaints and facilitate solutions so as to
promote dispute settlement through mediation to reduce litigation. The main function of the
committee is arbitration and negotiation based on transparent and fair hearing of the cases of the
parties in dispute between PAPs and the implementing agencies for local government. The
committee gives solution to grievances related to compensation amount, delays in compensation
payment or provision of different type of resettlement assistance.
14.1 Grievances Redress Procedures
All PAPs have been informed that they can approach the chairman of the grievance committee or
the project implementer in case of any grievance regarding compensation. Any PAPs who have
grievance would present his / her cases to the grievance redress committee. The committee will
maintain a complaints register. It will examine the case and responds with in a period of 15 days.
If the PAPs are not satisfied with the decision of the Grievance Redress Committee/GRC/, they
can take the case to regular court. A pictorial view of the grievance redress procedures is given
below (See Figure 4-1).

The objective of having the grievance procedure stated above seeks to address the following:
Provide PAPs with avenues for making compliant or resolve any dispute that may arise
Ensure that appropriate and mutually acceptable corrective actions are identified and
implemented to address complaints; Verify that complainants are satisfied with outcomes
of corrective actions; and avoid the need to resort to judicial proceedings.
14.2 Public Disclosure of RAP
Public disclosure of the RAP has to be made to PAPs and other stakeholders for review and
comments on entitlement measures and other issues in the implementation of the RAP. The
purpose of the disclosure is to receive comments and suggestions from PAPs and incorporate the
appropriate suggestions.
MoI will publicly disclose this RAP, in English and in local languages (Amharic and Oromiffa)
and make copies available and distribute with a letter accompanied to Akaki Kality Sub city and
Woreda 9 and 10 authorities. This could be done by: a) publishing it on MoI's website (in
English and in local languages); b) publishing it in local newspapers; c) announcing it on local
radio stations and d) depositing/posting it in a range of publicly accessible places such as, Sub
city, Woreda offices and Kebele offices.
Once this RAP is disclosed, the public have to be notified both through administrative structures
and informal structures about the availability of the RAP documents and also be requested to
make their suggestions and comments. Once disclosed in Ethiopia, the FDRE will authorize the
WB to disclose at the Info-shop in Washington DC and make it accessible to all interested.

15 Monitoring and Reporting Plan
Monitoring and Evaluation: Monitoring and evaluation will be a continuous process. The
Project management unit will be responsible for the overall supervision of the implementation of
the RAP.
After completion of the resettlement/relocation operations, it is expected that PAP’s will have a
better or improved way of life compared to their previous situation. Therefore, relocation
operations need to be monitored and evaluated to determine if PAP’s have been able to
reestablish their livelihood and living situation.
In order to guarantee that the compensation plan is smoothly performed and the benefit of the
affected persons be well treated, the implementation of the compensation plan will be under
monitoring throughout the whole process. Monitoring will be divided in two parts i.e. internal
and external monitoring.
Internal Monitoring
The internal monitoring will be performed by the Akaki Kality Sub city Resettlement and
Livelihood Restoration Case Team or by other convenient arrangements such as employing a
consultant. The concerned local Administration (Woredas) will also conduct their own
monitoring. The target of internal monitoring is to ensure that there is overall fairness and
transparency while compensation process, takes place and Resettlement Action Plan is
performed based on legal rights.
The main monitoring issues would be compensation allocation schedule, payment and use of
compensation fee, implementation of the policies and regulation specified in the resettlement
plan and the whole course of implementation of the compensation.
The main source of data for internal monitoring will be the data base generated from the RAP,
for e.g., records on compensation for assets as well as the day today observation by
implementing staffs.
The resettlement office will record the progress of land allocation and resettlement. The office
will make a summary report starting from the beginning of the activities and special events will
be reported on continuous basis to the responsible office of the City Administration
The format of the report has to be prepared in terms of the requirement of the World Bank. The
format usually comprises detail description of resettlement progress and compensation payment,
problems and difficulties met in the implementation process and corresponding resolution
methods and measures.
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Kilinto Industrial Zone
Ministry of Industry, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia April 2015 Page 58
External Monitoring
External monitoring should be the joint responsibilities of the Sub city, City and Federal MoI
which will undertake all basic supervision on the impact of the project on PAPs and income
restoration, degree of satisfaction of PAPs during implementation of resettlement include
payment of compensation.
Social experts of Addis Ababa City Administration should also undertake the resettlement
monitoring work with the resettlement implementing team. The main responsibility is to assess
the performance of the resettlement implementation team based on the consolidated report and
take corrective measures in case of problems.
The major monitoring area includes;
The over all fairness and transparency of the compensation process;
Progress of compensation payment; support for vulnerable groups.
Appropriateness of grievance redress mechanisms; and
Problems and difficulties encountered.

16 RAP Implementation Schedule
As can be gathered from the RAP study, a number of important activities are required in order to
realize the action plan. Activities such as the relocation and resettlement of people affect the
entire livelihood of people and are sometimes very sensitive unless the phases of implementation
are well planned and executed in a properly thought out priority and sequence in such a way that
the implementation of the preceding activity lays the ground and paves the way for the
successful implementation of the next activity. Furthermore, such activities have to be performed
with a higher degree of involvement of all concerned especially the Woreda Administration
offices and compensation (or property valuation) committees.
A tentative time schedule within which the different activities of resettlement will be
implemented can be taken as six months starting from April 2015 and ending sometime in
September 2015. In view of the urgency to realize the construction and functioning of the
industrial zone, all the compensation payments, relocation of PAPS could be completed ahead of
the civil works if implemented as per the plan shown in the RAP. The re-establishment/re-
housing during the transition period is minimized and believed to be adequate if proper support
is provided.
The proposed time schedule is presented below is the outcome of discussions and consultations
made with the most important stakeholders to the RAP, basically the MOI and the Sub city and
the project Woeredas. The time schedule proposed is viewed as appropriate assuming that each
and every actor to the plan plays its role ardently and adequate support is mobilized on time. It
also takes in to consideration the activities that were going on simultaneously during the time of
the RAP study such as the establishment of committees, awareness creation, inventory of assets
and notification.

18 Conclusions and Recommendations
Given the very low industrial development in the country at large, the development of industries
and manufacturing that would help for import substitution, export earnings, job creation and
overall livelihood and development in the country is long overdue. As a result, the development
of the KIZ is most welcome due to the anticipated benefits that can enhance the growth and
development of the country in general and the project communities and surrounding areas in
particular.
However, a project as big as the establishment of an Industrial Zone will not come without some
significant negative impacts. The negative impacts are mainly related to displacement of people;
loss of farm land, houses and properties.
Therefore, this RAP has identified significant socio-economic impacts and provides for
mandatory mitigation and compensation measures. One should work for ways and means of
avoiding or minimizing the anticipated negative impacts by properly implementing the proposed
RAP thereby ensuring the social and environmental sustainability of the project.
As per our assessment, the population residing in the project area and many of the stakeholders
in the area would like to see the construction of the project as soon as possible. Public
consultations held with different groups of the local community, and government officials as
well as professional experts working in the project, indicate that the local population, PAPs and
other stakeholders have expressed positive support for the project. There is no significant social
and environmental issue that would prevent the implementation of the project as long as the
negative impacts are managed and proposed RAP measures are adhered to by all concerned
bodies.

land acquisition and loss of asset and income, the requirement of resettlement and the modalities
of compensation as per the countries and World Bank’s rules and regulations, etc,.
The Woreda Representative, who acted as the chairperson of the meeting also reiterated about
the roles and responsibilities of the Woreda Administration with regards to the required support
and facilitation required in the process of the implementation of the project as well as the roles
and responsibilities of the Woreda line offices particularly that of the Woreda Land
Management, Public Relations, Peoples Mobilization and Organization, Micro and Small Scale
Enterprises, the PAP committee and the PAPs themselves.
Finally he invited the Woreda Representative to proceed with the facilitation of the meeting in
order to get the views and opinions and recommendations of the participants.
The PAPs unanimously expressed that it has to be clearly understood that their livelihood is
based on agriculture i.e. on the crops they produce from the land and the animals they rear still
on the same land. They expressed their entitlements to the land have to be respected. But in the
event there is no other alternative and if their land needs to be taken for project purposes they
would agree to the condition based on fair compensation and livelihood measures that would be
implemented based on existing policies and regulations.
Among the most important points raised by the PAPs are
Invariably PAPs made it clear that they know that the development activities going on in
their respective areas and the surroundings are for the benefit of the country at large and
the population around in terms of job creation and improvement in livelihood.
Performance of similar projects in compensation and livelihood restoration in and around
their areas was rated as poor and recommended lessons should be drawn and the current
RAP has to be implemented in a better and more efficient way.
It was revealed that PAPs who lost larger part or all of their farmland with areas as large
as 1000m2 under their homestead possession expressed their opinon that such a land can
be utilized for livelihood restoration programs or businesses with livelihood restoration
support from the government if this is taken in to account in the RAP.
The meeting also emphasized the need for ownership and commitment of government to
ensure the timely release of the necessary funds for implementing livelihood restoration
plan within a short period of time.
Participants raised concern that priorities for project benefits such as job employment and
other opportunities may not be given to the affected (local residence) and clearly stated
that they will cooperate in measures that will be taken for livelihood restoration.
Problems and challenges faced so far and required corrective measures in relation to the ongoing
resettlement and livelihood restoration measures particularly job creation for PAPs were dealt at
length and the meeting ended with deliberations of recommendations and actions that need to be
taken and follow- up necessary on the part of all responsible stakeholders in the Woreda, PAP
Committee, etc.
