Trade Unions As for the Trade Unions, the Eastern Ethiopia Branch of CETU plays a traditional representation and collective bargaining role, with some influence in the organisational process of the enterprises due to their large constituencies. Mainly they represent the workers of the major enterprises. Basic Unions are established in all major industries and workplaces. Cooperatives Table 6 shows the dimension of the cooperatives in Dire Dawa: Table 6 Registered Cooperatives in Dire Dawa Number of Members Type of Cooperatives Cooperatives Total Capital Male Female Total Saving & Credit 16 23 373 396 355.494,05 Multi Purpose 6 79 120 199 140.895,50 Housing 105 38 92 120 647.058,27 Consumer 2 25 14 39 83.620,00 Agriculture 2 9 20 29 2.374,00 Industrial, Artesian & others 28 256 76 332 28.735,20 Small Scale Irrigation 2 178 1 179 35.725,35 Construction 9 97 25 122 22.702,25 Service Rendering 13 192 32 224 17.172,50 Livestock development & Marketing 11 68 29 97 40.100,50 Total 194 965 782 1767 1.373.877,62 15. The dynamics in the sector at regional level NSA are growing quantitatively in Dire Dawa. The major influencing factors can be identified as follows: 5. emerging of informal groupings (clubs and non registered organisations) due to a growing citizen’s participation; 6. Gradual level of institutionalisation of Community-Based Organisation, mostly Iddirs; 7. The momentum offered by the social mobilisation process related to the local dialogue on governance and local planning; 58
8. The facilitation of CSOs structuring provided by the government with initial but very important support (e.g. availability of premises, advice from the Bureau of Justice for the registration and licensing of organisations); 9. The high level of cooperation at kebele level (kebele largely recognise NSA contribution, consults them and often ask NSAs advice in the decisionmaking process); 10. Stimulation and capacity building from Local NGOs, INGOs, and Apex organisations for the grassroots organisations. Some trends have been highlighted, namely: D. Iddirs are gradually assuming the role of Community-Based Social Welfare or Self-Help Organisations. Both isolated and grouped Iddirs have gradually abandoned the traditional role of assisting the families for burial and in the mourning period (some of the organisation keep the traditional activities as a way for strengthening community bonds) and have assumed a role in : • providing social welfare support to the weaker layers of the community such as OVCs, elderly people, widows and disabled; • stimulating income generation activities through revolving micro-credit activities; • providing mutual help in family crises and difficulties such as diseases, the death of a breadwinner etc; • building of small-scale local infrastructures; • cross-cutting issues, mainly gender and child protection • cooperating with local authorities in service delivery and consultation on social problems. E. A promising process of institutionalising and bottom-up networking has been enacted during the last 3 years. An umbrella organisation has been stimulated by ACORD and PANE. This umbrella organisation (ADMAS) gathers 7 Iddirs Unions or Boards which in turn gather a total of 62 Iddirs in the town with 2064 members and wide capacity of serving community needs. This process is leading to registration of the organisations (mostly the Boards) and the constitution of formal organisms and to a regular and rather democratic internal process and to a gradual participation in the dialogue with the Government; F. International NGOs and National Apex/Networking Organisations have re-formulated their strategy shifting their focus on cross-cutting issues (e.g. Women’s Empowerment for CARE) or Policy Dialogue and Governance Issues. This is gradually accompanying and facilitating the CBOs supported by these organisations in achieving a growing awareness, capacity and willingness to engage in cooperation with the government. It has to be said yet, that only in few cases these cooperation reaches the policy level, with few exception at the kebele level; G. A number of Local NGOs while continuing funding CBOs activities are currently stressing their role in capacity building for CBOs not only in terms of training but also in stimulating the capacity for income generation, mobilisation of community resources and fundraising; 59
