Relying on the Sustainable Livelihoods concept, this study proposes an Impact Evaluation Framework (IEF) to measure project impact as changes of target community's livelihoods.
Nutrition, food security and livelihoods: basic concepts - An introduction to the basic concepts of food, nutrition; the different forms of malnutrition; the frameworks for food security, nutrition security and livelihoods and their linkages.
The concept of livelihood resilience is underpinned by human rights.
As research continues to suggest that theoretically and practically climate change adaptation (CCA), DRR, and development overlap (Kelman et al. 2015), we will use the bridging concept of livelihood resilience for our framework (Tanner et al. 2014).
Apart from being an analytical tool, SLF takes vulnerability as a comprehensive concept covering livelihood assets and their access, and vulnerability context elements (i.e., shocks, seasonality, and trends) as well as institutional structure and processes (Birkmann, 2006).
Source: Adapted from the MOVE framework (Birkmann et al. 2013), and the concepts of livelihood resilience (Tanner et al. 2014) and "historical construction of disasters" (Oliver-smith 2010).
Staying committed to my passion for meaning had sustained me over the years, but how could I make it pay off yet again and still practice the Buddhist concept of "right livelihood"?
Building upon this review, we explore the concept of 'environmental livelihood security' – which encompasses a balance between natural resource supply and human demand on the environment to promote sustainability – and develop an integrated nexus-livelihoods framework for examining the environmental livelihood security of a system.
The book's central conclusion is that we must move beyond the concept of sustainable livelihood itself, with its in-built polarities between developed and developing nations, and embrace a more global notion of 'sustainable lifestyle'; a more nuanced and inclusive approach that encompasses not just how we make a sustainable living, but how we can live sustainable lives.
It is now a central concept in the livelihood, food security, sustainability science, land-use change, natural hazards; disaster risks management, public health and global environment and is now increasingly used in climate change research communities (Schroter et al. 2004; Fussel 2006).
