Challenge

The conflict in Ethiopia has claimed many lives, resulting in massive destruction of homes and infrastructure in addition to impacting the safety and well-being of hundreds of thousands of people. Thousands of schools have been damaged or destroyed while many other schools are sheltering IDPs depriving children of their rights to an education. Overall, it is estimated that close to 3 million boys and girls across Tigray, Afar and Amhara regions have missed out on learning opportunities.

Solution

To prevent the additional risks faced by children and other internally displaced persons (IDPs) in affected areas, immediate protection services especially against gender-based violence, child protection and support to deal with the psychological trauma is needed. We will offer integrated prevention and response services to GBV victims, child protection support as well as psychosocial support to the most affected displaced people.

Long-Term Impact

The project will enable the communities affected by the war to recover their livelihoods and adopt a more stable life as they recover from the impacts of the war. Through the project initiatives, 15,000 individuals (2400 women, 6000 girls, 1600 men and 5000 boys ) will be supported.
