Seqota Declaration resource mobilization plan for expansion and scale-up phases - Key messages to help achieve Ethiopia's food and nutrition goals through sustainable financing

Abstract

The Seqota Declaration Roadmap indicates that over a 10-year period, scaling up programs to achieve the eight strategic objectives of the Seqota Declaration would cost a total of 146 billion ETB, funding the Expansion and Scale-Up Phases. To meet these costs, the federal government has committed to allocate 3 billion ETB annually from Treasury which will be matched by regions for an additional allocation of 3 billion ETB annually from regional governments. The Seqota Declaration has issued a request to partners to match the government contribution of 6 billion ETB annually for a total of 12 billion ETB annually in government-managed funding to meet the Scale-up Phase costs.
