Overview
We enable households—particularly youth, women, refugees, and vulnerable groups—to build sustainable
livelihoods through skills training, entrepreneurship support, agriculture, and
market linkages that promote self‑reliance and resilience.
Through
our Livelihoods & Resilience service, we provide resources and tools to
help people develop skills, access financial services, and create opportunities
for income generation. GPF adopts a multisectoral approach to enhance food
security, income generation, and economic resilience among refugees and host
communities.
How we work?
Key Interventions:
On-Farm: Agricultural production, climate-smart
agronomy, and access to inputs.
Off-Farm: Skills training, business development
services, and access to microfinance (VSLA, IGAs).
Non-Farm: Vocational and
technical skills development tailored to market demand (e.g., tailoring,
welding, carpentry, saloon). Youth Skilling & Self-Reliance: Programs
tailored to youth in displacement settings, combining skills, mentorship, and
seed capital.
Results: Supported over 2,000 youth and women in both refugee
settlement and host community and Acholi sub-regions with income-generating
opportunities. Strengthened 10+ VSLA groups, enabling financial inclusion and
economic agency.
Our Approach
We
put dignity, equity, and agency at the heart of everything we do.
Communities lead, shape, and monitor human rights interventions.
Our work is grounded in data, lived experiences, and continuous learning.
We ensure equal rights and opportunities for all groups, especially the most vulnerable.
