Livelihood Avenues (SUSTAIN)
Economic empowerment
Women and children are the most vulnerable in Pakistan. During disasters the situation worsens and therefore, we invest in Initiatives that benefit them most.
Thardeep Rural Development Programme (TRDP)
Post 2011 floods women have been provided interest-free multiple years loans to acquire dairy cattle. Besides providing the much-needed nutrition to the family, income is generated, and they become owners of an asset.

Likewise, women displaced during the 2010 floods from Dadu District, Sindh are now producing world-class patchwork quilts for a fair compensation.
