dc.description.abstract | In Ethiopia academic and policy oriented researches have been conducted by various stakeholders focusing on international migration. Most of these researches are conducted in relation to the international migration of Ethiopians to the Middle East countries mainly focusing on trafficking, vulnerability of women towards trafficking, causes of migration, abusive work condition in the destination countries, the role of remittance in Ethiopian economy, the role of PEAs in facilitating migration and various human rights violations faced to the migrants at the country of destination. This study deviat+es from the other due to the fact that it focused exclusively on the irregular migration of girls in Tigray Regional State and the human rights violations they faced during the desert and sea routes. The study additionally aims at exploring the root causes of girl children‟s irregular migration, the role of different actors in facilitating their migration and the treatment of brokers/smugglers towards the migrants in the desert route and sea voyage being a girl. Moreover, the study focused on the girls who didn‟t achieve their migration goals. To achieve this, the thesis is conducted in a critical qualitative research approach and employed in-depth interview, key informant interview and focus group discussion in addition to the analysis of relevant literature as secondary data source to solicit the necessary information for the research. The research found out that girls are pushed by poverty, socio-cultural practices of the community, gender discrimination and related issues while they are attracted by the stories of better life and salary. Moreover, the findings show that the girls had countless human rights violations in the entire desert journey and sea voyage, in destination and in the custodies where they were detained. Thus, the researcher believed that the outcomes of the study will be helpful to all stakeholders to take the necessary measures to end the misery of many Ethiopian girls in the entire irregular migration process. | en_US |
