About the program

Through this program, Solidar Suisse works to strengthen the livelihoods of vulnerable populations and reduce child labor.

This takes the form of :

  • Improving food security by developing and/or strengthening the livelihoods of indigenous and displaced populations and their resilience to climate change and security crises;
  • Supporting the development of viable businesses or cooperatives and helping to improve employment opportunities, particularly for young people and women in rural areas;
  • Reducing the worst forms of child labor.
