About this dataset

Energy projects are being implemented in humanitarian contexts across the globe. These excel spreadsheets include all known past and present energy projects that have taken place in refugee camps, IDP communities, and other crisis-affected populations throughout the world, and were collected by the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves on behalf of the Safe Access to Fuel & Energy (SAFE) Humanitarian Working Group. To view full descriptions of the projects represented here, please visit www.safefuelandenergy.org/where-we-work. This project listing was created as part of an effort to enhance coordination of activities, encourage collaboration, and share knowledge between organizations working on Safe Access to Fuel and Energy (SAFE) in humanitarian settings. Projects included in this database are those that improve access to fuel or energy for cooking, lighting, heating, or powering among crisis-affected populations. By crisis-affected populations we mean refugees, internally displaced people (IDPs), or those affected by natural disaster or prolonged conflict. Examples of applicable energy interventions include providing solar lighting, manufacturing and/or distributing cookstoves and fuels, setting up mini grids for camp electrification, establishing and managing woodlots for fuel provision and environmental protection, improving protection mechanisms for women during firewood collection, and many others, provided they take place among crisis-affected populations. The SAFE Humanitarian Working Group is a consortium of partners including UNHCR, FAO, WFP, the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves, the Women's Refugee Commission, International Lifeline Fund, Mercy Corps, UNICEF, and other agencies. If you know of additional energy projects that are not shown here, please contact us at info@safefuelandenergy.org.

Ethiopia: IRC Ethiopia Direct Project Intervention Woredas -Jan 2024 By Sectors and Donors

IRC Directly implemented Projects intervened in the different part of the nation and refugee camps for the period of January 2024. The data shows the interventions by detail activities, Sectors and Donors. IRC’s GIS unit created this database to allow for a more sustained approach to producing relevant mapping products and geospatial analysis for undergoing humanitarian responses and will fill gaps in information sharing and management between Donors (BHA/USAID, ECHO, Irish AID, Charity; Water, EHF, UNHCR & others). IRC’s GIS services provides information and analysis required to monitor the evolution of project / program results and to track project and program impacts across geographic locations. This dataset contains boundaries of Ethiopian administrative Woredas which are roughly consistent with the actual & updated administrative boundaries for the year 2024. The Woreda boundary contains attribute data (, activities, Sector Donors Fields) for IRC Ethiopia for IRC Direct Projects- January 2024
