Contributions of Youth Centers to the Development of Young People in Ethiopia
2021, Ethiopian journal of the social sciences and humanities
There has been a global paradigm shift in conceptualizing how best young persons can be assisted from a conventional deficit-based approach of targeting youth to a more enabling approach of promoting their strengths and competencies. Establishment of youth centers was one such global initiative meant to catalyze positive youth development through supervised and youth-friendly services. In recognition of this, several youth centers have been established in Ethiopia in the last few decades. This research was thus conducted to examine contributions of these centers to the development of young people. Data were collected through questionnaire from a sample of 2,165 participants (service providers and service users) and observation of 94 youth centers drawn from all regions of the country. Findings indicated that the contributions of youth centers were generally minimal in terms of promoting overall positive youth development. Some evidence even showed that youth centers could serve as a...

This study set out to identify urban livelihoods of adult women living in two sub-cities of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and measure the level of outcomes of interventions made by CSOs in quantitative terms. 86 women that benefited from the projects were randomly selected to provide data through questionnaire, while some of the women and project employees were interviewed. Frequencies and percentages were employed as analysis techniques. Findings indicated that the women used to suffer from a number of vulnerability contexts which sought diversified intervention strategies most of which led to improvement in the living standards of the women. Access to market and inability to manage finance remain continued challenges calling for solutions. The study recommends the importance of linking job creation efforts through self-employment with micro credit schemes and market access.

Executive Summary This research was conducted with the objective of assessing the practice, gaps and challenges in the provision of legal aid service in Ethiopia, as well as the level of networking and coordination among the various legal aid providers. More specifically, it aimed to analyse the relevant international and national legal and policy frameworks concerning legal aid provision; review existing research and documentation on the provision of legal aid services; create a data base of existing legal aid service providers; examine the service provided by various actors; assess the level of cooperation and coordination among legal aid providers; and, identify challenges and good practices in the provision of legal aid service. The scope of the research covered legal aid service rendered by NGOs, higher learning institutions, professional associations and government organs in civil cases. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods including literature review, primary data collection through field visits and stakeholders’ consultations were employed to undertake the assessment. The assessment, in addition to compiling a database of legal aid service providers, has identified important findings concerning the accessibility, delivery and use as well as the quality of legal aid services. Accessibility of legal aid services is analyzed in terms of legal awareness, geographic proximity, program coverage and financial cost of accessing the service. The findings of the assessment indicate that in terms of legal awareness most legal aid service providers have programmes designed to improve awareness among their target communities as well as key actors and stakeholders. Distribution of IEC materials, radio broadcasting, and outreach programs are more commonly employed with varying degrees of success for the purposes of creating awareness and introducing available services. The geographical coverage of legal aid services varies from region to region. For the most part, the services are generally urban focused and closely related with the justice institutions located in urban areas. With regard to financial accessibility, all legal aid services are provided free of charge except for incidental/opportunity costs which are not covered by service providers in most cases. Various methods are employed among legal aid providers to identify beneficiaries eligible for legal aid services. It is submitted that there is a need to set uniform eligibility criteria that can be utilized by all legal aid providers at the national level. The analysis on delivery and use of services focused on the identity of actors delivering legal aid services, the range of services provided, and the methods of delivery. The findings indicate that the nature of the institution providing the services is an important factor in terms of determining the identity of the personnel giving the legal aid service. Universities generally use staff and students while professional associations and government organs utilize advocates licensed to practice before federal and regional courts. Charities and societies, on the other hand, tend to engage lawyers and paralegals. The most recurrent cases entertained by the legal aid service providers are civil cases, especially family, property and labor cases, maintenance allowance, and succession issues being the most frequent cases. The range of available services covers oral advice or legal counseling, preparation of pleadings and other documents, and legal representation by advocates before a court of law with oral advice being the most recurrent. Finally, the beneficiaries of the services are the poor with women and children targeted by most service providers. Other groups of beneficiaries include the elderly, PLWHA and inmates of detention facilities. The assessment analyzed the quality of legal aid services in addressing the justice needs of the beneficiaries. This is gauged using three criteria: establishing professional standards for personnel providing the service; existence and adoption of model rules; and provision of relevant training for personnel providing the service. In addition to the code of conduct for advocates provided by law at the federal and regional levels, a few legal aid providers have developed guidelines and standards governing the provision of legal aid service by them. However, the assessment found that such professional standards are lacking among most legal aid service providers. The same is true with regard to case management and follow up systems which are found to be less than adequate in the case of most legal aid providers. Organization of training programmes for the personnel that actually provide the service are generally limited to orientation sessions and limited short term training opportunities. The assessment did not find any systematic training programmes for services providers, but for one of the legal aid providers covered by the assessment. The assessment has come up with detailed recommendations for action by various actors with particular emphasis on the concrete actions that should be taken by the legal aid service providers themselves with the view to improving the accessibility, delivery and quality of legal aid service in Ethiopia.

Abstract Gender based violence/violence against women is far more become serious human rights and public health issue nowadays. As the cases prevailed it disproportionately affects women of all age groups, from all cultures and socio-economic backgrounds. GBV takes many forms, including rape, domestic violence, forced marriage, exploitation and harassment, sexual violence and female genital mutilation. It impacts the physical, emotional, psychological and social well-being of women and girls. Although it is acknowledged as a fundamental violation of human rights and a constraint to development, gender based violence is endemic throughout Ethiopia in general and in addis Ababa in particular. The prevalence of gender based violence, including domestic abuse, harmful traditional practices (HTP) and general negative perceptions, attitudes and beliefs about women and their abilities and roles abound throughout our country. Despite efforts by the Ethiopian government and non-government actors, and a growing awareness of the crosscutting gender issues in development programs, still women and girls in Ethiopia do not enjoy the same status, power or access to and control over resources as men and boys. Violence against women and girls (VAWG) is one of the major barriers affecting women and girls’ rights in Ethiopia. Cognizant of the importance of addressing the issues of GBV and VAW; effective and sustainable changes in the justice system is required. this research will therefore produce evidence on the barriers that are affecting women and girls’ access to justice with regard to GBV/VAW. Therefore, the next discussion is divided in to three sections. The first section deals on exemplary institution working to advance women's social and economic development and provide support for women and girls that faced physical and psychological harm and the following the actions of the other stockholders while implementing the law against GBV/VAW in Addis Ababa, and the last part deals with national legislation one sexual violence and the practice and challenges at police prosecution and trial stages.

This study aimed to appraise the role of local institutions in adaptation to changing climate at the local level in the Bilate Basin Agropastoral Livelihood Zone of Ethiopia. Thirty-one years of climate data were analyzed by employing the Mann–Kendall trend and Sen’s slope test techniques. The survey was conducted on 400 households that were systematically randomized from 7066 households, while community-level data were collected through the participatory rural appraisal (PRA) technique. The entire analysis was framed by a tetragonal model. The results of the analysis indicated that temperature exhibited a significantly increasing trend, while rainfall, which is statistically related to temperature, showed a decreasing trend, resulting in lingering droughts and human and animal diseases. Major livestock declined by 69%. As a response, while Sidama indigenous institutions were well-functioning and nurtured through local knowledge, and the governmental and civic ones were entrenched w...

Muhammad Iqbal sees each person as the "self" with an independent identity, and God as the "Absolute Self". The human experience of the self is a constantly changing experience. This change develops around a center and eventually forms an organic unity. The independence of the self does not mean that it is closed to other-selves.
