“Migration is part of the life course; but for many Ethiopian youth, it’s a story of both hope and hardship.” - Dr Yisak Tafere at #ICES22 #YouthMigration #Ethiopia #YoungLives

It's heartbreaking to see young lives lost in the fleeting struggle to control a few miles of land at such a high cost. Often, war is used to divert attention from domestic issues. What a shame. #younglives #highcost #life #war

Currently sat reading through a 99 page report for my first board meeting as a trustee for a MAT. I struggle to get my local governors to read a few pages at times so for something on this level I really hope that all trustees do read everything to make strategic calls! #EdGovernance #YoungLives
