Livelihoods Assets & Strategies

The goal of livelihood development is to increase access to and/or protection of financial, social, natural, physical, and human

livelihood assets. The assets are relational, and often developing one means development of others. It is also necessary to look

beyond the categories into the structures, processes and strategies that transform the assets into livelihood outcomes. The

purpose of the section below is to identify what assets the people you are working with have currently, and how they are using

them (or not using them) to achieve their desired livelihood outcomes.
