Snapshot of GAGE Quantitative Findings on Act With Her in Ethiopia

Ethiopia

Pathfinder collaborated with the Government of Ethiopia, in partnership with CARE International, and through funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to implement the Act With Her program in four regions of Ethiopia. The program partners with adolescent girls to forge the health, education, economic, and social pathways they need to thrive during the transition to adulthood. Between 2019 and 2022 over 50,000 adolescents participated in approximately 1,500 groups across these regions. A subset of these adolescents in three regions are part of ongoing mixed-methods longitudinal data collection being conducted by the Gender and Adolescence: Global Evidence (GAGE) program, with funding from UK Aid. In this brief, we provide a snapshot of quantitative findings from the GAGE randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluation of Act With Her programming for very young adolescents (VYA) through 2022 in two of those regions (Amhara and Oromia).
