Abschnitt II: Gegenstand
81283693-PILUP II-Development and implementation of Integrated Land Use Plans in Ethiopia
Strong population growth is increasing the pressure on Ethiopia's land resources. In most parts of the country, there is an unregulated expansion of settlement areas. This leads to conflicts, especially in peri-urban areas and certain rural agglomerations, where agricultural and urban interests compete and other relevant interests (e.g. of the civil society, private sector, etc.) often remain marginal. The continuous growth of settlements results in the loss of valuable agricultural land and important ecosystems. At the local level, many districts (woredas) have sectoral land use plans, but these do not integrate non-agricultural aspects. National strategic interests and environmental concerns are not given enough consideration. On the other hand, urban planning takes little account of the interests of agricultural land users and conducts planning without any consultation. National and regional levels have not yet defined rules and procedures for a systematic and transparent integrated land use planning that is in line with international human rights standards. The technical equipment of the respective national and regional authorities is inadequate. There is currently no institution charged and/or able to enforce existing land use plans. Training capacities for academic education as well as vocational training to fill future positions in integrated land use planning are insufficient and curricula and training modules need to be brought up to international standards. Effective participation mechanisms for the private sector and civil society are not available and very little experience exists within the administration with participatory approaches. In summary, the institutional and regulatory framework for integrated land use planning at the national level and in selected regions is inadequate (core problem).
The module objective of the project is to improve the institutional and regulatory framework for integrated land use planning at national level and in selected regions according to international human rights standards.
In order to achieve this objective, the TC measure aims at strengthening the regulatory and institutional capacities of national and regional authorities in line with international human rights standards. Furthermore, the project aims at strengthening the capacities of authorities and other stakeholders to implement participatory planning procedures - also in line with international human rights standards. In this regard, the project focuses on areas with high competition for land (i.e. hotspots). In addition, education and training opportunities for integrated land use planning professionals at various professional levels will be improved by developing a respective university curriculum as well as training modules for regional TVET colleges. The project complies with the agreements reached under the Compact with Africa initiative and is part of the reform partnership between Germany and Ethiopia. As an accompanying measure, cooperation to promote sustainable land policy has been agreed.
The term of the project is 3 years from 01.01.2022 to 31.12.2024 and the German TC contribution will cost up to EUR 5,000,000.

The contractor is responsible for achieving the module indicators 1 and 3:
1. The integrated land use plans developed in 5 selected sub-regional development zones in accordance with international human rights standards have been put into effect by the regional governments
3. The newly established Regional Audit Centres for Integrated Land Use Planning have assessed 10 project proposals submitted by regional authorities for their conformity with the respective integrated land use plan
The contractor is responsible for achieving the following output indicators.
Output 1: The regulatory capacities of national and regional authorities for integrated land use planning in line with international human rights standards have been strengthened.
Output indicator:
1.2. 215 (80%) of the 270 participants from the authorities in short-term training measures (including 80 women) rate their skills with regard to the application of procedural rules in ILUP processes and lLUP examinations on a scale of 1 to 5 with 3 or higher
Output 2: The capacities of public authorities and other stakeholders to apply planning procedures in line with international human rights standards have been strengthened.
Output indicators:
2.1: 3 instruments of integrated land use planning were applied by the responsible planning authorities as well as other stakeholders in areas with high land competition (hotspots) (2 of them in peri-urban areas).
2.2: 240 (80%) of the 300 participants in short-term training from regional planning authorities, the private sector and civil society organisations, including 120 women, rate their skills in implementing integrated land use planning procedures and instruments on a scale of 1 to 5 with 3 or higher.
Output 3: The training and further education opportunities for professionals in integrated land use planning at various professional levels have been improved.
Output indicators:
3.1: 1 newly created curriculum for a university degree course on integrated land use planning with special consideration of gender aspects has been adopted by the Senate of the University.
3.2: Regional vocational training institutions have integrated a total of 4 additional training modules on integrated land use planning into the existing vocational training programmes.
The contractor is responsible for providing the following work packages:
Work package - Output 1
The contractor will contribute to the achievement of this output through gender-sensitive training activities for staff of relevant institutions at national level with a balance of men and women to allow them to design the necessary changes in the rules and procedures. Particular attention in all training modules will be paid to compliance with the UN Basic Principles and Guidelines on Development-Related Evictions and Relocations and the human rights-based approach as outlined in the FAO VGGT of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests.
Work package - Output 2
The contractor will be responsible for operations at regional level to test ILUP in development hotspots characterised by a high level of economic activity and competition for land, but not yet at the stage of continual conflict.
The acceptance and active participation of the ILUP stakeholders will be strengthened by the contractor through awareness-raising measures. With assistance from GIZ, a steering committee will be created for each ILUP hotspot.
The participatory capacity for all stakeholders (civil society, private commercial organisations) to properly assess the various aspects of ILUP such as environmental protection, climate change, conflict sensitivity, economic development will be strengthened by the contractor. As well, the various actors" capacities to negotiate and effectively participate in gender-balanced decision-making mechanisms regarding integrated land use will be promoted. Special emphasis must be placed on the participatory capacities of vulnerable groups. The contractor will design and implement a participation and decision-making mechanism that allows equitable access of all relevant groups and that is in line with UN human rights principles.
The requirements for important raster and vector data inputs such as satellite imagery (if required and proposed) or administrative boundaries will be proposed by the contractor to GIZ for its acquisition. It is the responsibility of the contractor to collect and organize spatial data that can be freely obtained. Moreover, the contractor is also responsible to prepare status quo maps or base maps using either an open-source satellite image or a commercial higher resolution image that will be supplied by GIZ.
Finally, through training and process advice, a still to-be-determined regional authority will be empowered to monitor compliance with the designated land use types. Further organizational development will take place concerning rights of appeal or complaint.
Work package 3: Output 3
The contractor will advise universities on the development or updating of relevant curricula. Vocational training institutions will be advised on the development of ILUP-related training modules.
The contractor will offer training courses for employees of the regional state administration and private or civil society organizations, while putting an emphasis on e-learning. Women are promoted directly in their role in the planning processes through the targeted adaptation of training modules and the adjustment of curricula to fit their needs.
The contractor will design, in collaboration with the relevant university bodies, a transparent process to select a gender-balanced group of students for scholarships on the subject of ILUP. The scholarships will be financed by GIZ via the university.
