Preamble
Comitato Collaborazione Medica (CCM) is an Italian NGO based in the city of Turin, which has been in
operation globally since 1968. A legally registered organization in Ethiopia, CCM has been present in the
country since 1998. It is facilitating interventions in the areas of development and emergency in Somalia
and Oromiya regional states.
ENDAN and CCM collaborate in joint undertakings to maximize achievement of their objectives in
supporting PwDs. In 2009, the Organizations have entered into a three years partnership agreement
targeted at building the capacity of ENDAN member organizations. One major objective of this capacity
building project, which is titled “Strengthening Organization Working with Persons with Disabilities
in Ethiopia”, is widening “the coverage and scale-up programs and services in Ethiopia for ENDAN
member organizations” whilst “strengthening the organizational capacity of ENDAN itself”.The project
has three components: Capacity Building, Creation of the Resource Centre and Research/Awareness.
One activity of the research component of the project is producing a catalogue containing practical
information on opportunities and services PwDs have in Addis Ababa. Towards this, the NGOs
commissioned a national consulting firm, SiCon, to conduct a study on opportunities and services
available for PwDs in Addis Ababa. Outputs of the study are presented here in two separate documents:
a research report and a catalogue of organizations engaged in providing services for PwDs.
For most PwDs in Ethiopia, supports and assistances come mainly from families and friends. However,
the Federal Government and the city administration as well provide a range of opportunities and
services in various ways to help those with disabilities. Civil society organizations and the private sector
also make a range of services available for PwDs through self-targeted, project-based, community-based,
and/or institution-based approaches.
Nevertheless, it appears that available opportunities have not been well utilized by PwDs due to various
reasons. Experience shows that service providers often concentrate on establishing and developing
services, but give less thought to how PwDs find out about and access them. The research in Addis
Ababa (see the report in a separate document) reveals that PwDs are not fully utilizing support services
and opportunities made available for their benefit due to lack of information and other factors. It is
thus crucial to gather and disseminate practical, accurate and systematically organized information on
the services and opportunities PwDs have in Addis Ababa in a form of a comprehensive catalogue.
This Catalogue is thus an initial step towards creating and maintaining a comprehensive database of
governmental, non-governmental and private institutions engaged in providing services for PwDs in
Addis Ababa.
The Catalogue is prepared based on information obtained from a template completed by ENDAN
members, previous publications (guides and directories) of governmental Ministries (such as MoE and
MoLSA), printed materials of DPOs (including brochures and leaflets), electronic (websites) and other
secondary sources . Based on available information, the Catalogue attempts to provide basic information,
including names, identity, contact addresses, list of services, target groups etc on organizations currently
providing services for PwDs in Addis Ababa.
Overall about 111 governmental organisations, charities, societies, donor agencies, and private
operators are covered in this Catalogue. The range of services being provided by these organizations,
and are available for PwDs, include: home and community based services, health care/medical assistance,
vocational and educational, counselling, production and provision of specialized medical equipment/
supplies and assistive technology, research, information, and communication. Services provided
by umbrella associations and governmental Ministries available for DPOs mainly include research,
information, coordination and capacity building services. In general, government Ministries and Bureaus
play roles in creating opportunities (including setting out conducive policy environment), coordination
and monitoring while public institutions (such as health institutions and schools) and non-state actors
are directly engaged in different preventive and rehabilitative service delivery. Umbrella organizations
of DPOs, on the other hand, involve more in research, networking, capacity building, information and
communication.
It is essential to note here that information on the organizations is not uniformly provided in adequate
detail in all the cases due to limitations in obtaining the required information. To the extent possible,
utmost effort is made to include all active organizations working in disability issues in Addis Ababa.
Expectedly few may have not been included. In addition, the description of services provided by the
organizations may not necessarily represent what they are actually providing at present. It appears that
in some cases, indicated services embrace all activities for which the organizations are constituted
to provide for. In addition, it should be noted that there are many more state and non-state players
that mainstream the interest of PwDs in their programs, projects and plans or provide some kind of
services to PwDs as part of their broader development interventions in different sectors. Including all
these institutions in this Catalogue was, however, beyond its scope. As a result, only those that directly
deal with disability issues are included. Moreover, it is worth noting that the mandates of government
ministries and the operational location of many NGOs cover regions beyond Addis Ababa. This means,
the information given on the Ministries and other organizations operating at national level has wider
application. Furthermore, it remains essential to view this Catalogue as a live document that needs to
be updated from time to time to include missing and newly established organizations, to exclude those
that are no more active in the sector, and as new information, including changes in addresses, service
types, etc, comes on existing ones.
In organizing the document, organizations are grouped by type (Governmental, NGOs, Private, etc.) and
by the type of services they provide (such as health and education). It was, however, found difficult to neatly
classify the organizations for the fact that most organizations engage in multiple activities or services
for different families of disabilities. Nevertheless, attempt has been made to present the organizations
in a manner suitable for users. Under each category, the list of organizations is given in alphabetical
sequence. The list is given in the table of contents below and their details in the corresponding page
numbers. More detailed information is given on ENDAN members at the end. In all the cases, the same
names and acronyms given by the organizations themselves or in the above-stated documents are used.
The Catalogue is intended to be used by a range of stakeholders/actors including PwDs, PwD associations,
NGOs, the private sector, governmental and donor agencies.To make it available for and accessible by all
interested users, it can be published and distributed to partners in hard copies and posted on websites
for wider users.
Finally, we would like to thank all the institutions and PwDs for providing us with the required information.
We especially thank ENDAN and CCM staffs for their alacritous and unflagging support throughout in
the course of the assignment. We believe that this Catalogue will make some contribution in making
information available on services and opportunities available for PwDs in Addis Ababa for all those
interested in the issue.
