ActionAid's livelihoods project supported women smallholder farmers involved in the production and sale
of vegetables and NTFP (wild fruit, potato, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, plant fibre (for making rattan mats), honey and frogs. ActionAid with local partner, Children's Development Association (CDA), worked with 940 women smallholder farmers across 16 villages to increase income, access to sustainable resources and engagement with decision-makers. The project worked with smallholder farmers, particularly women, to strengthen productivity through sustainable agriculture, including strengthening access to productive resources and agricultural technologies (land, water, forest, skills). It also focused on improving capacities of civil society organisations to influence decision-making.
