Livelihood assessments

Livelihood assessments are evaluations conducted to understand how individuals or communities earn and sustain their basic needs, such as food, shelter, and clothing. They examine sources of income, assets, skills, and resources, helping to identify strengths and vulnerabilities. This process aids organizations and policymakers in developing effective strategies to improve economic stability and reduce poverty. Essentially, livelihood assessments provide a detailed picture of how people make a living, the challenges they face, and opportunities for support or development.
