Children, Youth and Women - Research and Practice Forum - 15th Year Anniversary Workshop

Over the past 15 years, the CYW-RPF has provided a platform for knowledge-sharing through monthly presentations of policy-relevant research and programs. Managed by Young Lives Ethiopia, the Forum has hosted 171 presentations from various organizations between 2010 and 2024. Of these, Young Lives has contributed 30 presentations based on its longitudinal research, furthering understanding of the dynamics of poverty and inequality in the lives of children, from their early years, through adolescence, and into young adulthood.

To mark this milestone, Young Lives Ethiopia, in collaboration with UNICEF, UN Women, the Ministry of Women and Social Affairs, and the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), is organizing an Annual Workshop under the theme: "Protection and Empowerment of Children, Youth, and Women" on February 11, 2025. This event will feature high-quality research papers addressing pressing issues affecting these groups and will bring together leading experts and stakeholders.
