ECONOMIC LIVELIHOOD
Economic Livelihood
Economic stability is the foundation of dignity and resilience. Yet across many communities, income remains fragile.
Through collective support, this mission focuses on building sustainable earning pathways where they are needed most — from vocational training and microfinance to agricultural programmes and small business development.
THE CHALLENGE & OUR RESPONSE
Access to stable income remains out of reach for many families — especially youth, women, and climate-exposed communities. Through collective support, this mission focuses on building sustainable earning pathways where they are needed most.
PROBLEM
REALITY ON THE GROUND
70%
Of youth are unemployed or underemployed
80%
Of the economy is informal and unprotected
1 in 2
Households depend on climate-vulnerable livelihoods
Youth Unemployment
Millions of young people lack access to jobs or training. Without pathways to employment, economic instability and displacement deepen.
Women-Led Enterprise Barriers
Women entrepreneurs face limited access to capital, markets, and business training — restricting their ability to grow enterprises that support families.
Climate Vulnerability
Pastoralists, farmers, and fishing communities face increasingly unpredictable conditions. Without diversification, one bad season can destroy livelihoods.
