Abstract

This study evaluates the impact of the Partnership Against Child Exploitation (PACE) program in Ethiopia, an initiative aimed at reducing child labor and increasing school attendance in vulnerable communities. The program identified a child in a family, at risk or involved in worst forms of child labor. The program’s design incorporated support to income generating activities and savings systems at the family level, educational assistance at the child level, and community awareness campaigns.
