The proposed Market Opportunities in the Somali Region of Ethiopia (MORE) programme will transform the lives of 125,000 vulnerable TOP households in the Somali Regional State of Ethiopia through sustainable employment and business generation activities. The programme will address the three major constraints faced by TOP households in accessing alternative livelihoods: limited business and livelihood opportunities caused by undeveloped and fragmented markets (addressed through Output 1); widespread lack of access to financial services (Output 3); and lack of marketable skills (Output 4). Output 2 addresses the particular challenges faced by rural TOP households in terms of vulnerability to shocks, diminishing assets and lack of access to services and alternative livelihood opportunities. Output 1. Increased participation by TOP households in at least 10 agricultural and non-agricultural markets, resulting in increased income Output 2. Increased participation in VSLAs by rural TOP households resulting in growth in household livelihood assets Output 3. Improved access to financial services for TOP households and other market actors Output 4. A dynamic 'employment and business support services sector providing effective services to increased numbers of TOP households ;
