Sustainable Livelihood Framework

The Sustainable Livelihood Framework is a way to understand how individuals or communities earn a living and what influences their ability to do so over time. It looks at five key elements: the assets they have (like skills, resources, and social networks), the activities they do, the outcomes they seek (like income, security, or well-being), the external factors affecting them (such as economic trends or policies), and the strategies they use to adapt. This approach helps identify ways to improve livelihoods in a way that is sustainable, resilient, and beneficial for future generations.
