Abstract
The initiative to reform the Ethiopian civil service accounts more than a century old which dates back to the
Menelik II Era 1907. However, it was consolidated after the end of the Socialist Era since the early 1990s. The
current Ethiopian government has conducted a continuous reform to restructure the civil service system
objectively to introduce the multi-party democracy and market-driven economy. In contemporary CSR, like the
other African governments, the Ethiopian government is trying to link the dynamics of ICT as a sole promoter to
implement the CSRs and to provide quality service. However, it is evidenced that the implementation of CSR in
Ethiopia in general and that of Tigray’s in particular has poorly supported by ICT. Therefore, the objective of
this article was to ascertain the implementation of CSR in Tigray national regional state with particular reference
to the Woreda-Net as a sole promoter to implement CSR. To ascertain how the Woreda-Net was used as a sole
promoter to implement the CSR and the provision of quality service in Tigray, pertinent data was gathered both
from primary and secondary sources. Finally, the problems that inhibit the Woreda-Net to function as a sole
promoter of CSR implementation were recognized and the discussion was concluded with, though, the regional
government tried to narrow the gap between the urban and the remote rural areas by using ICT expansion, the
ICT centers /Woreda-Nets were not centers of civil servants training to scale-up the civil servants skill to utilize
computer technology which helps them to implement the CSR.
