This project will aim to integrate land and water management, crop component technology, crop management, crop livestock systems, pastoral systems and even agroforestry systems so as to raise productivity and incomes and enhance resilience, while slowing land degradation and reducing downstream siltation.
This project is a follow on to the Literature review on job creation in fragile states project-I0433. This project will develop a matrix of interventions and develop an analytical framework for assessing and drawing lessons from private sector interventions in fragile/conflict-affected states.
For people affected by conflict, livelihoods and protection are intimately linked. People not only face threats to their safety and dignity through violence and displacement, but the destruction of livelihoods is frequently a direct or indirect consequence of war. In response, people are often faced with difficult choices between safety and dignity and economic survival. Yet despite these connections, and despite the increased commitment of many aid actors to protection and livelihoods programming in conflict situations, efforts to link these programmes remain limited.
This HPG Policy Brief summarises the findings of research examining the links between protection and livelihoods in conflict. Based on case studies in Chechnya, Darfur, the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) and Sri Lanka, the study explores the inter-connections between protection and livelihoods in terms of the threats people face and their actions in response
In response to UN World Refugee Day, a new blog by Ellen Martin looks at the implications of rapid urbanisation for displaced, returnee and resident populations in Juba.
