Collection: Goat Livelihood Projects in Nepal

COVID-19 has profoundly transformed Nepal and the rest of South Asia, leaving lasting scars on their economies for years to come. The economic impact of the pandemic on livelihoods across Nepal is expected to be the most acute for informal workers and farmers who are more at risk of falling into extreme poverty.

In Nepal, Enlace works with churches and communities that have identified goat livelihood projects as a strategic way to help extremely vulnerable families that do not own enough land to plant crops. The projects will enable families to generate both income and food. 

This program provides farmers with training, construction materials, and two female goats to start their herds. The program aims to encourage farmers to multiply their herds to maintain a total of 10 goats. The goal is to sell two to three goats per year to increase family income by as much as $470 (200 percent) per year.
