Gwadar-Lasbela Livelihoods Support Project
Gwadar-Lasbela Livelihoods Support Project
The Gwadar-Lasbela Livelihoods Support Project will cover the two coastal districts of Gwadar and Lasbela in the province of Balochistan, where over 60 per cent of the population live in poverty.
The project will primarily target poor rural households in 382 villages in Gwadar and Lasbela, including small-scale landowners or landless tenants, small-scale fishers, and women. The project is expected to benefit about 20,000 rural households (116,000 people).
The project aims to increase the incomes and enhance the livelihoods of poor rural and fishers' households in the project area. In particular it will support:
- Community development;
- Fisheries development;
- Rural infrastructure.
