Consuelo Foundation's Project HOPE

L I V E L I H OOD A N D S K I L L S T R A I N I N G R E P O R T

One of our key strategies has been to involve the people themselves in determining the type of livelihood and skills training assistance that would be helpful to them and their families. Using a participatory process, we make sure that these type of services we provided and continue to provide are diverse, relevant, and most of all, respectful of the men and women’s strengths and desires. During Phase 1 of Project Hope, most of our livelihood projects focused on emergency employment and rebuilding the tools needed by our beneficiaries using livelihood skills they had prior to Typhoon Haiyan. These were critical and much-needed interventions that paved the way for the families to jumpstart their recovery process. Examples are emergency employment for clearing debris and fallen trees, building of fishing boats for fishing communities, and building home-based enterprises for mothers and fathers.
