Pathfinder International, in collaboration with the Government of Ethiopia, in partnership with CARE International, and with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, is implementing a five-year umbrella program designed to lay the health, education, and social foundations that adolescent girls need to thrive and navigate healthy transitions to adulthood. By 2022, we will reach 50,000 adolescent Ethiopian girls and boys ages 10-17 by scaling up an existing empowerment program while simultaneously assessing the potential value-add of an expanded version. A randomized impact evaluation is being conducted by the UK Department for International Development (DFID)-funded Gender & Adolescence: Global Evidence (GAGE) research consortium.
