Restoring Livelihoods and Enterprise Development, Pakistan
RI is restoring livelihoods for quake-affected families by implementing comprehensive programs focused on restoring the economy. RI’s incorporates agricultural assistance, rebuilding community physical infrastructure, livestock restocking, providing grants to farmers and communities, and initiating training programs to improve agricultural practices.


School Construction, Pakistan
Because the 7.6 magnitude earthquake struck during school hours, many children were inured and killed when their schools collapsed. To mitigate the effects of future events, RI is building new earthquake-resistant schools that will serve hundreds of school-aged children.
To have enough food, shelter, and take care of one’s family is fundamental for survival and basic human dignity. RI enables people to provide for themselves through training and increasing access to resources to lead healthy, productive lives. In communities ravaged by disasters or civil conflict, RI works quickly to restore livelihoods and establish food security, particularly for the most vulnerable. Even in wartime or the aftermath of disaster, livelihoods projects can bridge the gap between despair and well-being using proven tools such as microcredit, business courses, and community education. In many societies, women are the sole providers, but they are also highly susceptible to poverty and marginalization. RI designs many livelihoods projects to specifically further the self-sufficiency and status of women.
