Every morning I wake up to sound of Amaric music, goats, and the conversations of the hotel staff on the floors below mine.  I make my way down for breakfast where I have gotten in the habit of treating myself with freshly squeezed mango juice every morning.  Mangos surely don’t taste like this in the United States.  Shortly after, I am picked up via motorcycle by my colleague Desta, who is the program facilitator for the Girl Power Education Project.  We discuss the after work happenings in between the nearly constant waves and hellos Desta says during our ride.  Somehow he seems to know about half of the people in Hawassa.

Yet, whether it brings a blessing or a curse depends on the social and political implications that comes along with it. Every year, the government promises to realise double digit economic growth. For a country with 29pc of the population living under poverty line - one dollar a day - this may seem like a target to be commended. Nonetheless, the distributional aspect of economic growth is often overlooked. This entails how much of the benefit from economic growth is going to the rich and the poor, respectively. It also refers to how much of the cost of economic growth the rich and the poor, respectively, shall bear. At face value, this calls for the answering of two critical questions. Should we continue in the current "model of growth", which has allowed some to drive a hammer, while a signi
