About

Selam Children’s Village and Plan International Ethiopia Selam Children’s Village (SCV) is a local NGO that was founded in 1986 and was recognized by the Ethiopian government as a local non-profit organization (Register no. 1043). Selam Children’s Village aims to make it possible for orphaned children and youth with no financial means in communities to improve their lives and develop into independent and capable citizens. The organization is working towards this vision by providing food, accommodation, clothing, education, Technical and Vocational training, medical and healthcare services, and other basic necessities to the target groups in question. Selam Children’s Village collaborates with other programs and projects to give support to underprivileged community members.

SCV has been implementing various projects with funds donated from multilateral donors such as UNIDO, VOLVO, and SIDA, the Netherlands’ Ministry of Foreign Affairs via Woord en Daad, as well as Institutional donors such as Tesfa-Ilg (an NGO based in Switzerland), various Swiss charities and German charities

Plan International Ethiopia (Plan Ethiopia): Plan Ethiopia is a non-government organization (NGO) that commenced operations in November 1974. In its first years, Plan had operations in Arbaminch in the south of Ethiopia. After an absence of 17 years, Plan then resumed its activities in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in October 1994. Plan Ethiopia is recognized by the Ethiopian government as a non-profit organization (Register no. 0773). Plan International Ethiopia works with children, their families, and their communities to promote the rights of children and equal rights and opportunities for girls. Plan Ethiopia is committed to achieving sustainable and positive development in the field of youth employment by working together with governments, international organizations, and development organizations to improve young people's access to financial services, financial skills, and entrepreneurship and also to improve the general vocational education, training, and provision of skills needed to gain employment.

Ethiopian Centre for Development (ECD): ECD is a local NGO that was founded in 2004 and was recognised by the Ethiopian government as a local non-profit organisation (Register no. 1186). ECD aims to create better conditions and to improve access to opportunities for marginalised and impoverished children, young people and women, which will lead to an improvement in the livelihoods of everyone in the community. Their goal is to offer children living in poverty and young people who have been displaced, especially girls, better prospects for the future through education, training and the provision of financial support.

Project Contex

Unemployment in Ethiopia is by and large an urban phenomenon. Unemployment rates are particularly high in Addis Ababa; where 23.5 percent of households report an unemployed adult, versus 11 percent of households in other urban areas. Addis Ababa, as the capital city and with 3 all its attractions for rural migrants, reflects the problem with a more magnified lens. The youth, defined as men and women from age 15-29 (FDRE, National Youth policy, 2004), represent the most vibrant segment of the population who can be key agents of social change, economic development, and technological innovations if provided with an enabling environment and opportunities. More than 28 percent of Ethiopia’s estimated 104 million population are aged 15 to 29 years. Even if Ethiopia has this part of the population in abundance, nearly 27% of the youth are estimated to be unemployed (USAID, 2017). The problem is even more serious for young women. A study by Plan, (Smart-Up, 2018) showed that Ethiopian young women are more than twice as likely to be unemployed as young men.
