LIVELIHOOD
We help people achieve self-reliance by building their skills and knowledge, as well as providing them access to the resources, training, assets, inputs, services and markets they need.
Our work in this area is guided by several core principles – including protection, diversity, equity, access and sustainability. We seek to ensure that all people of concern are able to make a safe and sustainable living that meets their basic needs, contributes to their dignity and provides for the full enjoyment of human rights.
