This project is designed to support 800 households (HHS) in actively engaging in climate-smart farming practices that will enhance food security and improve resilience to climate-related shocks. Additionally, 100 households will benefit from the provision of camels, which will serve as a sustainable source of livelihood and strengthen pastoralist communities. By focusing on these interventions, the project aims to promote long-term sustainability and reduce vulnerability among targeted groups.
Furthermore, the project will empower 150 women-headed households to invest in meaningful businesses that can generate steady income and improve household welfare. Women’s participation in business will not only enhance their economic independence but also contribute to community development. This intervention will ensure that vulnerable women are provided with opportunities to thrive in a dignified and self-reliant manner.
The project will also support 100 elderly-headed households with monthly cash transfers to meet their basic needs and reduce economic pressure on their families. These transfers will ensure that the elderly, who may be unable to work, can access essential goods and services without reliance on unsustainable coping strategies. By addressing the needs of this group, the project ensures inclusivity and protection for all vulnerable members of society.
In addition, 100 youthful households will participate in Cash for Work projects, providing them with short-term income opportunities while contributing to community infrastructure and development. Capacity-building training will be undertaken for all beneficiary categories to enhance their skills and ensure the sustainability of the interventions. Although the activities have not yet started, upon receipt of funding, the project will implement all planned initiatives in a timely and efficient manner.
