Lowlands Livelihood Resilience Project (LLRP) I

Lowlands Livelihood Resilience Project (LLRP) is envisaged as a six-year project and a first phase of a multi-phase engagement in pastoral and agro-pastoral (lowland) areas.

The project is a joint one between Ethiopian Federal Government and the project budget is approved by The WB and IFAD Board and finally by the Parliament of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia. The development objective is to improve livelihood resilience of pastoral and agro-pastoral communities in Ethiopia. The LLRP was developed with a broader focus on livelihood resilience, using a rangeland-centered entry area which plans public investments in a holistic way, incorporating pastoral rangeland and natural resource management, climate change adaptation and mitigation, development of pastoral and agro-pastoral value chains and related alternative livelihoods, nutrition, and job creation. It is seen as a flagship investment leading to a new generation of investments aiming to build livelihoods resilience in the pastoral and agro-pastoral areas in Ethiopia

Development objectives

The Project Development Objective (PDO) is:

To Improve the livelihoods of Pastoral and Agro-Pastoral Communities in the lowlands of Ethiopia.

The project attempts to address four major bottle-necks

Those bottle-necks are

 Low productivity and limited market linkages;
 High vulnerability of prevailing livelihoods;
 Limited livelihood diversification opportunities; and
 Limited social and economic service delivery

The project will build resilience through:

  • Absorptive capacity, through rangeland and natural resource management interventions, strategic investments (SIs), and improved basic social service delivery, which will help communities and PAP systems to absorb drought shocks and reduce asset losses;
  • Adaptive capacity, through livelihood improvement and by helping beneficiaries adopt climate-smart agriculture and investing in research systems that will contribute toward better adapting to changing climate; and
  • Transformative capacity, through market links, small-scale irrigation, and livelihood diversification, that provide a basis for more fundamental socioeconomic changes and help beneficiaries reduce their dependence on rain-fed agricultural system.
