Children play on the unfinished structure of a school ground used as shelter at the NSPS internally displaced persons (IDPs) camp in Adwa, Tigray region, on July 17, 2024. Despite a peace deal signed in November 2022, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) estimates there are still 1.1 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Ethiopia's conflict-ravaged Tigray region. The majority were uprooted by the two-year war between Ethiopian federal forces and Tigrayan rebel authorities. Several humanitarian partners have ended their programmes because of a lack of resources -- according to the UN -- exacerbating the already dire living conditions for IDPs while government led returns have just slowly started.
