Jikawo
Jikawo is one of the woredas in the Gambela Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Nuer Zone, Jikawo is bordered on the south by the Anuak Zone, on the west by the Alwero River which separates it from Wentawa, on the north by the Baro River which separates it from South Sudan, and on the east by Lare. Towns in Jikawo include Nginngang and Telut.
== Overview ==
The terrain in Jikawo consists of marshes and grasslands; elevations range from 300 to 400 meters above sea level. According to the ''Atlas of the Ethiopian Rural Economy'' published by the Central Statistical Agency (CSA), around 10% of the woreda is forest.〔(''Atlas of the Ethiopian Rural Economy'' ), p. 18〕 A notable landmark in Jikawo is Gambela National Park, which occupies an area south of the Baro on the eastern side of the woreda, covering about a third of its area.
The economy of Jikawo is predominantly agricultural. There are no agricultural cooperatives, no documented roads, and little other infrastructure.〔''Atlas of the Ethiopian Rural Economy'', pp. 30f〕 Along with Akobo, Jikawo becomes flooded during the rainy season, requiring the people to migrate to the highlands with their cattle until the waters recede; thus raising livestock is the primary source of income in this woreda.〔Abraham Sewonet, ("Breaking the Cycle of Conflict in Gambella Region'' ), UN-Emergencies Unit for Ethiopia Assessment Mission: 23–29 December 2002〕
