 In Brief:

Livelihood rehabilitation programmes in emergency situations such as the Orissa cyclone in 1999 have shown that specific problems are encountered in these situations which affect the nature of the intervention and the relationships forged. The skill, capability, access to and control over resources are essential in dealing with the short and long term affects of disaster and trauma.

In the case of Orissa, ensured food security entitlement and subsequently the individual livelihood support were the key interventions of actionaid in their Food For Work programme.

What considerations are there for livelihoods in conflict situations? Analysis and case study from Somalia.
