Sharing a link to an article on the correlates of childhood violence in refugee settings in Ethiopia https://doi.org/10.1080/16549716.2026.2647656
This study found that childhood violence is highly prevalent in Ethiopian refugee camps, with about one in three young people aged 13 - 24 years reporting physical, emotional, or sexual violence before age 18. Key risk factors included orphanhood, disability, exposure to family or community violence, and loss of family members, while female‑headed households and better housing conditions were protective. The findings highlight the need for multi‑level prevention and response strategies targeting individual, household, and community risks.
