Livelihood and Food Security

The principle of Africa Life Aid programing unit is a household. We work to empower households to be able to support the basic needs. We do this through working with communities to identify sustainable livelihood initiatives. However, we also respond to needs of households in destitution and in emergency setting with quick in-kind items like food, shelter, among others. Households are transitioned to sustainable livelihood programs through VSLA, financial literacy, creation of green jobs, and skilling of youth through apprenticeship programs among others. As a practical measure for retention of children in schools, we also support school feeding programs.
