HIV, like in other areas of Ethiopia, has spread to towns and the countryside. Ethiopia is one of the countries that have suffered more from HIV due to a number of reasons.

Projects

This project was implemented in two rounds in six Woredas of the Kellem Wollega Zone, and was funded by the JANIVO Foundation. The first phase of the project was from 2003 and 2005 and benefited about 22,000 beneficiaries. The second phase of the project was started in April 2006 and has benefited more than 41,101.
HIV/AIDS, like any other parts of Ethiopia, has spread to towns and the countrysides of Kellm Wollega Zone. In fact, Kellem is one of the zones that have suffered more from HIV due to a number of reasons.
Food, shelter and clothes are necessary for the survival of human beings. Old aged people, especially those who do not have relief from immediate relatives and are childless suffer from lack of these indispensable resources. Old people are an asset of the country and play a decisive role in upgrading the socio-cultural development of the society.
The rural school capacity building project had been implemented in various intervention strategies. These included construction of additional class rooms, availing of water schemes and toilet facilities for the school community accompanied by hygiene and sanitation trainings and establishment of a club on the same agendas, and provision of reference books.
The partial scholarship program was started with the objective of assisting bright minded but very poor students who have been in preparatory schools (grades 11 and 12) and colleges and universities but lacked the financial means to pay for transport and to cover small but essential expenses.
Walal has been implementing a project that targeted to empower women through a strategy known as women self help groups.
The fundamental purpose of this project is to contribute to improvement the qualities of basic service delivery in five sectors, i.e. in education, health and potable water supply, agriculture and rural road using social accountability tools, approaches and mechanisms by citizens, citizens groups, civil society organizations, local government officials and service providers.
In addition to the above listed projects, WALDA has also implemented some one-time and short duration projects. The rural electrification project implemented in year 2005 was among such a project.
