Aware (woreda)

Aware is one of the 47 woredas in the Somali Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Degehabur Zone, Aware is bordered on the south by the Korahe Zone, on the west by Degehabur, on the north by the Jijiga Zone, and on the east by Misraq Gashamo. The map of the Oromia Region published by Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Agency (2006) varies from the one from UN-OCHO (2003) by showing the southern half of its territory is occupied by Gunagoda woreda.

Towns in Aware include Aboker, Aware, Daror, and Rabaso.

Based on figures published by the Central Statistical Agency in 2005, this woreda has an estimated total population of 132,149, of whom 61,685 were males and 70,464 were females; 33,582 or 25.41% of its population are urban dwellers, which is greater than the Zone average of 22.3%. Information is not available on the area of Aware, so its density cannot be calculated. This woreda is primarily inhabited by the Ogaden clan of the Darood.
