    This study was aimed at assessing the contributions of rural resettlement programme on the livelihood improvement of the resettled people: in the case of Basketo Special Woreda, SNNPR, Ethiopia. In order to achieve this objective, the study employed both qualitative and quantitative research methods. The primary data was collected using survey questionnaire, key informant interviews, FGD and direct personal observation. The secondary data sources were used from published and unpublished materials. From the 469 resettlers currently residing in the three resettlement sites, which are taken as a total population, 216 were selected using simple random sampling method. Purposive sampling was employed to select 28 respondents for key informant interview. The data was analyzed descriptively (for quantitative) and using thematic narrations (for qualitative). On some key variables, inferential tests were conducted. The study results show that the resettlement program was voluntary based; and has contributed to the diversification of the livelihood strategies of the resettlers. It was also found that after the resettlement programme, the livelihood status of settlers have shown improvement in the dimensions of educational status and access to education (human capital), Iquib and cooperatives (social capital), access to land (natural capital), livestock size and production tools (physical capital) and access to credit and availability of credit sources (financial capital). However, still the resettlers face challenges with regard to health service (human capital), access to clean drinking water (natural capital), access to transport and market (physical capital), variability in weather condition, diseases like malaria and recurrence of conflicts in between the resettlers and the host community. Because of these challenges, the resttlers are abandoning the sites. The study therefore concluded with the recommendation that an integrated stakeholders’ intervention is needed to reverse the problems the resettlers are facing and scale up on the contributions of resettlement program in Basketo Special Woreda.
