Use CSA projections or past survey data: assume Fetche Kebele has 15,560 residents. Adolescents (10–19) and

Youth (15–24) make up 30% of the population.
If your kebele total population is account 14,678 in 2017 E/C, what is the estimated target group of adolescent

1 answer

To estimate the target group of adolescents (ages 10-19) and youth (ages 15-24) in Fetche Kebele, we can utilize the population figures provided.

  1. Total population of Fetche Kebele: 15,560
  2. Percentage of adolescents and youth: 30%

Now we calculate the estimated number of adolescents and youth:

\[ \text{Estimated number of adolescents and youth} = \text{Total population} \times \text{Percentage of adolescents and youth} \]

\[ \text{Estimated number of adolescents and youth} = 15,560 \times 0.30 \]

\[ \text{Estimated number of adolescents and youth} = 4,668 \]

Thus, the estimated target group of adolescents and youth in Fetche Kebele is 4,668.

For the second part about the 2017 E/C (Ethiopian Calendar) total population of 14,678, we can perform a similar calculation for that population:

  1. Total population in 2017 E/C: 14,678

\[ \text{Estimated number of adolescents and youth} = 14,678 \times 0.30 \]

\[ \text{Estimated number of adolescents and youth} = 4,403.4 \approx 4,403 \]

Therefore, based on the 2017 E/C total population, the estimated target group of adolescents and youth is approximately 4,403.

Summary:

  • From the current population of 15,560: 4,668
  • From the 2017 population of 14,678: 4,403
