In June 2016 the Inter-Agency Common Feedback Project collected feedback from communities (2100 respondents) across 14 districts on food security and livelihood related issues.
One area of life that was hit hard by the earthquake has been livelihood. The perception survey, partner feedback mechanisms and qualitative feedback collated by the Common Feedback Project all demonstrate that livelihood is a major concern for many earthquake affected districts. In this round of community perception survey little more than half (56%) said they have concerns related to their livelihoods which is a significant decrease from May 2016, when 67% of respondents reported having the same concerns.
Furthermore, 84% do not believe their livelihood would survive another disaster. Main livelihood related concerns cited by respondents included lack of skills and jobs. One fourth of the respondents reported having the same concerns.
