\u201cZiway-Shalla: Basin in Balance\u201d in Ethiopia&#8217;s Central Rift Valley. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">This four-year project aims to ensure a balanced Ziway Shalla Basin by improving its water and food security, increasing income for small farmers, and nature conservation. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">Through multi-dimensional interventions, the project aims to set an example of effective landscape approach to ensure a climate resilient and sustainable Ziway-Shalla basin for people and nature.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align:

inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">In this case, Ziway-Shalla is a closed water sub-basin, comprising the catchments of Ziway, Langano, Abijatta and Shalla lakes. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">Lake Ziway is the only freshwater lake that feeds lake Abijatta, which forms part of the Abijatta-Shalla National Park and the most important wetland area for migratory water birds in Ethiopia.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4037\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4037\" style=\"width: 675px\" class=\"wp-caption

style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">In last two decades, many small farmers and large agribusiness including Dutch and French investments have been increasingly drawing huge amount of water for irrigation from Ziway. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">As a result, water quality is deteriorating and quantity is declining. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">Furthermore, erosion caused by unsustainable land use, deforestation and overgrazing in the watershed have aggravated the problems as sediment gradually fills up the lake. <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">If this continues, Lake Abijatta, which has already lost 35% of its surface area since 2000, may disappear within the coming two decades and cause a sharp decline in bird population and water-related economic activities in the area.
