their host communities in Ethiopia, discouraging risky irregular migration

Planned Activities Activities Report
Despite the community discussion both in grass root
A3.1.1.2: Hold community discussion on migration option and risks and the
meetings and grassroots nexuses between gender and customary justice in
events to discuss migration refugee context is going good, the dissemination of
options and risks. information on migration options and risks as well as
the nexus between gender and customary justice
through printing materials is very delayed. Of course,
there is a slight progress in drafting printing materials
like comic book on migration risks, however still it is not
printing. But to grasp the total target now stared a movie
(testimonials stories) showing on migration risks.
Accordingly, in the month of February only, 759
refugees were attended in movies.

In addition to this two drama on the role of woman’s in

customary justice is now produced in collaborations
with DRC media production team. From the second
week of march, we will disseminate both materials
(drama) in Hitsats.

In terms of achievement, this activity needs special

attention so as to reach the total target which are
around 33000 beneficiaries. The difficult is how to
reach the beneficiaries from the host.

As a result of this, community discussion, movie

screening and ‘Medeb tezane Hikya” will conduct
continuously in each camp. But the challenge will be
system, insufficient human power and delay in printing
of materials.
