    <dct:description>&lt;p&gt;A cross sectional study was cond ucted with the object ive of assessing health&lt;br&gt; prob lems, hea lth coping strategies and hea lth care demand of non-displaced&lt;br&gt; communities whi ch are in food crisis. The study cons isted of a household su rvey&lt;br&gt; (n=53 I househo lds), Focus Group Oiscuss ions( N=IO grou ps) and an individ ual indepth&lt;br&gt; interv iew of government officia ls ( n = 9) th rough which quantitative and&lt;br&gt; qualitative data were coll ected.&lt;br&gt; The study Woreda (d istri ct) of North Wollo Zone, Amahara Regional State,&lt;br&gt; Eth iop ia. The di strict was highly affected by the fam ines of the 1970s and 1980s and&lt;br&gt; has been fac ing repeated food sholtages ever since.&lt;br&gt; In the three months reca ll period 748(29.4%) of the 2,547 household&lt;br&gt; members reported be ing ill, out of which only 122 (16.3%) sought western-style&lt;br&gt; medical care. The ma in reason (72.7% of the responses) for not seeking med ical ca re&lt;br&gt; was lack of money to cover the medical cost and/or for transportation and&lt;br&gt; accommodation. Most households had not recovered from the past famines&amp;#39; economic&lt;br&gt; shock, due to the recurrent nature of food prod uction fai lure. The an nual per capita&lt;br&gt; income in the surveyed population was found to be 3 10.4 (US $ 43.7). In fo rmat ion&lt;br&gt; was obta ined from 148 hou sehold s on the hea lth- cost co ping mechanisms; these&lt;br&gt; were 72(48.6%) of the househo lds from the sa le of animals and anima l products,&lt;br&gt; 32(2 1.6%) from the sa le of grai ns and the rest from loans, sav in gs, sa le of househo ld&lt;br&gt; uten si ls and fi re-wood, and work ing in food-far-work or cash-for work programmes&lt;/p&gt;</dct:description>
