1/ #Ethiopia’s Refugee law giving freedom of movement and right to work is progressive BUT if not implemented well will lead to more serious problems and possible conflict. Many potential risks that need to be mitigated.
2/How will refugees interact with local communities? Allowing Somali, South Sudanese, Eritreans, etc to move and work freely could have significant impacts in a country where lack of jobs has been one of key underlying factors in the unrest since 2015.
