Yeguada taricoch

The Yellow Movement, in collaboration with the International Labour Organization and the Swedish Embassy, launched the #YeGuadaTarikoch film contest. The initiative aimed to encourage young filmmakers to document the lives of young female domestic workers across Ethiopia, capturing their perspectives and exploring opportunities for professional and personal development. Entrants were urged to create character-driven documentaries using their phones, shedding light on the nuanced experiences of Ethiopian domestic workers and fostering reflection on cultural norms.

On May 15, 2019, at the Urban Center in Addis Ababa, the Embassy of Sweden and ILO, in collaboration with The Yellow Movement AAU, invited attendees to a panel discussion on “Making Decent Work a Reality for Domestic Workers: The Challenges and the Way Forward” at 4:30 PM. Following the discussion, there was a prize ceremony for the #YeguadaTarikoch video contest.
