Food insecurity remains a major challenge in underserved regions of Pakistan. CHRS worked with FAO to strengthen community resilience by boosting small-scale agricultural enterprises and household income.

The program focused on:

• Business planning for local agri-products
• Techniques to reduce waste and increase yield
• Nutrition-focused livelihood solutions
• Women and youth entrepreneurship

This integration of food security + economic empowerment helped families improve diet quality while gaining financial independence. The ripple effect included:
✅ Better nutrition for children
✅ Increased household savings
✅ Greater decision-making power for women

A shift from subsistence farming to market-oriented micro-enterprise brought communities closer to self-reliance.
