Introduction
Almost 27 million Ethiopian people live under poorest conditions. Provided the scarcity of
accessing, and controlling over supplies as well as various prejudiced long-established traditions,
women comprising the lions share, have fallen under the complete poverty. According to social
indicators, at each level of Ethiopian society, gender discrepancy is present, and the illiteracy
rate amongst women is as high as 75%. Instead of active promotion of attainment of primary
education by government bodies, due to the practice of early marriage Ethiopian young women
do not get access to higher education (Semela, Bekele and Abraham 2019). Almost 75% of girls
in Ethiopia get wedded by the age of 17 whereas, 13% of the young women ageing between 17-
21 years ties the knot. Additionally, several girls dropping out of school in Ethiopia is way
higher than boys, and they are also required to take up several household errands, which distract
them from going to school.
Major Health concerns amongst Ethiopian women
Mortality among children is considerably high in Ethiopia. Pneumonia, malaria, and diarrhoea
are the main causes behind the neonatal, and children under-five years’ death rate. It is liable for
30% of yearly demise. Additionally, children under five years do not get proper nutrition, and
thus the mortality rate is higher. All totalling 50.7 % of the children are undersized, and 34.6%
are underweight. The factor undersize denotes the increasing outcome of malnutrition, and
contamination from the time when the baby took birth, and even before that (Gjerde et al. 2017).
In Ethiopia amongst various, harmful customs, mutilation of female genital is pervasive. Over
half of the young women ageing between 15 to 19 years are being circumcised. The tradition is
vigorously linked with harmful reproductive health results such as contamination, hindered
labour, perineal tears, fistula, and most importantly, infertility. 60% to 80% of women in
Ethiopia have gone through some kind of genital disfigurement. In certain parts of Ethiopia,
kidnapping can also be noticed as a generalised custom. Girls of Rural areas are kidnapped
double the times compared with the girls residing in urban areas. As per the national reports, 8%
married women ageing between 15 to 49 years were reported as kidnapped. Both amongst rural
and urban Ethiopian young women, sexual harassments considered as a usual incident.
According to adolescents, the study took place in six periurban regions, 9% of sexually vigorous

adolescents were sexual harassed victims. A street violence report done on young women ageing
between 10 to 24 years residing at Addis Ababa has indicated that 15% of them have reported
being raped 43% were forced into doing sex in the first sexual encounter. The southern part of
Ethiopia has the tradition of polygamy, 5% of girls, as well as 8% of women aging between 20
to 24 years, are supposed to tie the knot with men having more than one wife. Such traditions
have a high possibility of exposing girls to a heightened threat of sexually transmitted diseases
(STD’S).
Marriage in early age, limited use, and access to contraceptives, inadequate access to health
information, and lastly illiteracy amongst girls have contributed to the steep rate of unnecessary
pregnancies in adolescence period. 54% of pregnant women in the nation are below 15 years,
which is unwanted, thus making it the main reproductive health hazard amongst Ethiopian
adolescents (Brooks et al. 2019). In terms of risks for boys having HIV positive transmission at
the age between 15 to 19 years, girls of the similar age group are seven times more vulnerable to
the transmission of HIV in their body. The rate of morbidity amongst Ethiopian women is 76%
compared to the rate of morbidity amongst men is 23%. The health of women is categorized
under maternal health issues, which have direct links with childbearing complications like
extended labour, retained placenta, maternal undernourishment, etc., problems related to
nutrition, which are major in Ethiopia. Amongst the age of 15 to 49 year, 25% of women having
children below three years old typically have a body mass index less than 18.5. Mutilation of
genitals, kidnapping, sexual harassment are the other major health-related issues that represent
the low cultural, socioeconomic status of Ethiopian women. HIV prevention knowledge amongst
women in the country is 43% when compared to the knowledge amongst men is 64% (Belcher
and Kleiner 2015). In the year 2010 alone, 90,000 women with HIV positive 14,000 HIV
positive births were being recorded.

contributors to the development procedure to get benefited from it. The Establishment of the
Women's Affairs Office within the Prime Minister's Office in the year 1992 made it necessary
for the purpose of better coordination back the situations promote gender equality in the
underdeveloped areas of the country (Jackson et al. 2017). In 1993 with the announcement of the
first National Policy on Women paved a structure using which, Government's assurance for
empowering women can be channelled. Therefore, The Women's Affairs Office of the PMO’s
office is accountable for overseeing as well as coordinating actions that lead to the successful
operation of the strategies. According to the policy, the Ethiopian Government is in charge of
certifying the implementation of the National Policy on Women. At the time of announcement of
the policy fulfilling the strategies was a challenge to create such a government constitution
through which, the successful implementation of the policy could have been materialised. The
policy is aimed not only at normalizing the political, social-economic rights of women within the
government organization, but also it needs to facilitate the insertion of women's requirements and
anxieties into government's plan all advancement related policies (Belcher and Kleiner 2015).
The eventual objective is achieving a stage where government strategies on political, social as
well as economic fields, and all progression involvement campaigns turn out to be gender
inclusive and gender-sensitive. The Department for the Women's Affairs was founded with 13
tactically placed line ministries to follow the guiding ideology of the National Policy on Women
(Assefa et al. 2017). Within the regional governments, the Women's Affairs Bureau was founded
in 10 provincial governments in two particular directorial parts of the country.
Along with the governments’ vital functionality, rigorous synchronization efforts from other
governmental bodies, non-governmental organizations, and most importantly women
organizations are the keys for thriving execution of the policy (Assefa et al. 2017). To make this
happen, development of apt tools methods for Incorporation of gender in the planning is being
developed, and applied. Some complications are being identified as occurrences of crucial
gender points as well, which are being shared; amendments are under designing level. The
government of Ethiopia recognizes the requirement of setting up special program, and
constructive activities for improving the country’s women’s’ economic status (Bayeh 2016).

FGM/C of women or genital disfigurement is considered as one of the most significant health
hazards amongst Ethiopian women. The tradition is strongly related to harmful reproductive
health issues including infection, delayed labour, and most significantly, infertility. Almost 60%
to 80% of Ethiopian women have experienced some sort of genital mutilation. To mitigate this
issue, the clinics need to stop such operations and health workers need to be aware about the
consequences of FGN/C (Unfpa.org. 2013). Local trained women also need to be deployed to
reach to the marginalized women and provide them information about safe motherhood and
threats of such practices.
It is seen in Ethiopia that the major issue is maternal death which has to be reduced on an
immediate effect. As per Lindtjørn (2017), this can be reduced with the help of Health Ministry

Health Institutions are needed to be upgraded by helping the institution’s midwives by providing
them basic equipments as well as regulating, monitoring and supervising the competency of
staffs. The non-clinical physicians are also to be trained for reducing this issue.
Child mortality is very high in Ethiopia. Yearly 30% of children death takes place due to various
dieses like diarrhoea, pneumonia and malaria. The most of child demise can be barred by
lowtech, evidence - based (i) pocket friendly family care customs like breastfeeding till 6
months, washing hands with soap and micronutrient supplements; (ii) taking defensive methods
like vaccination; and (iii) healing ways like rapid community based action of, malaria, diarrhea,
pneumonia and stern undernourishment (African Health Observatory 2015).
Conclusion
It can be concluded that there are several challenges to establish gender equality in women
empowerment in Ethiopia. To solve the issue of gender disparity, the government have taken
several measures so that the advancement can be noticed from the marginalized grass-root

this reality, the National Women's Policy and the overall Rural-Centred development
