IFRC Guidelines for Livelihoods programming

This is a practical ‘how to’ guide aimed at National Society programme managers and field staff wishing to start or improve livelihoods programming under an early recovery or developmental programme. It builds on the experience of a number of partners of the Movement and should be applicable in any context. The guidelines were initially developed to encourage a livelihoods perspective for emergency response programming, but many of the tools and approaches are relevant to longer-term livelihoods programming, and descriptions of these are also included.
