dc.description.abstractThe Ethiopia Local Economic Development (LED) Pilot in Kebri Beyah Woreda, implemented from February 2023 to December 2024, aimed to move beyond traditional fragmented economic development to foster a collaborative and integrated ecosystem for economic growth at the woreda level in Ethiopia. The pilot was conceptualized as part of a broader effort to operationalize recommendations from a 2023 World Bank paper on LED in Ethiopia aimed at accelerating local economic growth and inclusive post-COVID-19 recovery, particularly in refugee-hosting areas. The pilot, a collaboration between the World Bank, the Ministry of Agriculture’s Development Response to Displacement Impacts Project (DRDIP), and the Kebri Beyah woreda government, sought to improve coordination among various LED actors by establishing a multistakeholder institutional platform for continued coordination on woreda-level LED and by fostering sustainable livelihood activities for communities and refugees living in Kebri Beyah. The LED pilot provided the opportunity to test and refine the transformative LED approach in Ethiopia for the first time. This report captures and shares the methodologies - including the operational toolkit, best practices, and lessons learned from the pilot project, and additionally details proven approaches for improving coordination among LED partners, establishing effective public-private partnerships, enhancing last-mile service delivery, and increasing access to finance for local Ethiopian communities. Moving forward, this pilot report can be used as a reference document to guide subsequent replication and scale-up of the transformative LED approach, which has the potential to significantly enhance sustainable and inclusive economic growth in Ethiopia.en
