Irob (Erob) is one of the poorest administrative regions (Weredas) in Ethiopia found in the northeastern section of the Regional State of Tigray. The geographical size of the region (wereda) is 340.64 square kilometers with a population of 28-35,000. It borders with Eritrea from the northwest, north, and east. It is an entirely mountainous area with little or no flatland. The region has been greatly impoverished over the years as a result of a recurring drought and crop failure.Sadly, deforestation has caused the surrounding area to become vulnerable to erosion and thus to be turned into a semi desert.
