Migration

Based on the findings of a research that was conducted in collaboration with Addis Ababa University, CHADET also launched a project for reducing the risks of migration among children in selected sites of South Gondar and South Wollo Zones of the Amhara Region. In this regard, CHADET developed an intervention model that is aimed at working with children, care givers, CSOs and government stakeholders at the places of origin, transit towns and destination cities. Transitional shelters were established in selected transit towns for providing counselling, referral linkages, family tracing and re-unification, etc. This was followed by another intervention that was jointly implemented with three other CSOs in the Northern Ethiopia corridor that stretched between the towns of Debre-Birhan in North Shoa to the town of Kobbo in North Wollo.
