This report summarizes the outcomes from the Ethiopia Humanitarian Violence Against Children and Youth Survey (HVACS) Data to Action (D2A) workshop held in Addis Ababa in November 2024, and attended by the Government of Ethiopia’s Refugees and Returnees Service (RRS), civil society organisations and international partners.
The HVACS D2A workshop aims to help countries create violence prevention priorities for children and youth in humanitarian settings directly informed by HVACS data. These priorities are created by linking HVACS data to the INSPIRE: Seven Strategies for Ending Violence Against Children technical package.
The outcomes of the D2A workshop are data-driven, evidence-based priorities and actions to prevent and respond to violence against children in refugee settings in Ethiopia. The priorities will help complement existing policies and plans related to violence against children prevention in Ethiopia and help fill gaps that address humanitarian populations.
