North Shewa zone of the Amhara National Regional State is one ofthe areas where we have been implementing several child focused community development projects for thelast two and half decades. Our operations in the area gave us the opportunity to learn more about theextent of the socio-economic problems experienced by people in the Zone.
We witness the severity of the social and economic problems of North Showa zone in general and the townof Mezezo in particular. The problems are characterized by lack or inadequacy of education, health, waterand sanitation services and facilities as well as deep rooted poverty and shortage of livelihood options.These days, the prevalence of HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia is becoming higher in rural towns like the town off,Aezezo than big cities. The combined effects of all these problems are parlicularly harsh forchildren, youthand women of Mezezo town,
According to our experience and observations, in order to address the multidimensional problems of thetown, it is crucial to initiate child-focused integrated community development interventions. In this regard,we found the education and OVC support project proposal of Ethio-Wondem Foundation quite relevant thatsignificantly contributes towards reducing the problems of the community in Mezezo town,
