Bereh is one of the woredas in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia. It was part of former Berehna Aleltu woreda which was separated for Aleltu and Bereh woredas and Sendafa Town. Part of the Oromia Special Zone Surrounding Finfinne, Bereh is bordered on the south by the Akaki and Misraq Shewa Zone, on the southwest by the city of Addis Ababa, on the west by Sululta, on the north by Semien Shewa Zone, and on the east by the Amhara Region. The landscape of this woreda has been described as undulating mountains covered by a scattered settlement pattern, which make development efforts more difficult.〔(Operational Areas ) (Agri-Service Ethiopia)〕 This woreda was selected as one of the three areas for Agri-Service Ethiopia to implement an Integrated Food Security Program. This Program operates in 12 of the woreda's kebeles, with the goal of improving agricultural practices, developing new rural water sources, conserving use of local natural resources, training community health workers and building new schools.〔 == Demographics == The 2007 national census reported a total population for this woreda of 80,808, of whom 41,023 were men and 39,785 were women; none of its population were urban dwellers.
