Nasri Livelihoods Foundation aims to alleviate poverty and promote access to healthcare services to all in the regions where we work.
Our guiding principles & strategies
Those with a faith and those with none are united by the long-held belief that any civilised society can be judged by the way its people are treated.
We support the most vulnerable people
Some people are more prone to severe poverty than others – those caught in the poverty gap.
The poverty gap index is a measure of the intensity or severity of poverty. In terms of income, just how far below the poverty line someone falls.
In our experience, those people that live where the gap is widest and that experience a degree of prejudice, hardship and poverty more severe than others in their community are:
Orphans, child-headed families, people with severely, often terminally, ill parents, people with disabilities and their families and people from marginalized social groups.
This is because they lack secure adult protection and guidance, they face overwhelming challenges and are less visible and have little presence or voice in the community.
We take a holistic view of a person’s life and address the entire wellbeing of vulnerable people. Specifically: Physical health, Material Wellbeing, Mentoring, Freedom, Choice and Personal dignity
We place the most vulnerable people at the center of our work
