Title

ASSESSMENT OF REFUGEE LIVELIHOOD CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES: THE CASE OF SHEDDER REFUGEE CAMP, SOMALI REGION, ETHIOPIA.

Abstract

The study looks at the livelihood of Ethiopian refugees, namely the shedder refugee camp. The study used qualitative and quantitative research methods, as well as structured survey questioners with shedder refugees camp and semi-structured interviews with key informants from UNHCR, ARRA, EO-DICAC, and NRC. FGDs with the supported shedder refugees camp were also held. The sample size was determined using a simple random sampling procedure. The respondents for both interviews and focus groups were chosen using a simple random selection technique based on the implementing partner's camp livelihood recipient lists. For data analysis, descriptive statistics such as percentage, mean value, and cross tabulation were used. Data collecting was followed by data organization. The study was conducted with the research questions and objectives in mind. According to the conclusions of this survey, the majority of camp refugees rely on remittances from relatives and friends living overseas. The bulk of the refugees in the shedder refugee camp have received varied occupational skill training but have not put it into practice owing to the nations work visa. Even those refugees who worked in the informal sector encountered prejudice in the workplace, including low pay and arbitrary dismissal. According to the report, Ethiopian Refugee Proclamation 409/2004 prohibits refugees of any category from obtaining a work permit or engaging in income-generating economic activities. The Shedder Refugees camp, on the other hand, sees the particular treatment they've received as politically driven and only transitory. The long-standing and ongoing links between Ethiopia and Somalia, as well as the 2010 out-of-camp policy, influenced a large number of Somali refugees to settle in rural and urban areas, leaving them vulnerable due to a lack of work permits. It is practically hard to achieve self-sufficiency in such a setting. On the other hand, by considering Ethiopia as a transit nation and relying on Diaspora remittances, Somali refugees lose motivation to participate in livelihood pursuits.
