Description

The Manjo people are one of the communities residing in Kaffa zone of SNNPR who are affected by social stratification for a long time. The manjos, hunter group, were considered mediocre and even sub-humans in the region. As a result, their children have been deprived of access to education. This book, thus, explores the socio-economic and socio-cultural aspects of exclusion that hinder the Manjo children’s enrollment in primary education. Accordingly, the survey was conducted on 386 subjects and 50 stakeholders took part in interview and focus group discussion to complement the survey data in three target woredas. The data generated were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods. Finally, the study disclosed that lower socio-economic status of Manjo community found to be the major educational challenge to the Manjo children’s participation in primary education.
