livelihood
FICH’s livelihood program tackles the root causes of poverty by addressing problems of access and utilization of available resources. These problems are especially impactful to the women’s ability to produce and earn income. Therefore our livelihood program focuses on women’s empowerment.
Activities include agricultural production, value addition, vocational skills, micro-enterprise initiatives, and entrepreneurship. In designing livelihood projects, FICH works closely with local communities. By working together we are able to develop strategies that support entire families and encourage an inclusive lift from poverty.
