LIFT retains its focus on strengthening the resilience of the people of Myanmar through its work on livelihoods, food security and nutrition. LIFT’s purpose is to strengthen the resilience and sustainable livelihoods of poor and vulnerable groups in Myanmar, particularly women, internally displaced people, migrants, smallholder farmers, landless people, people with disabilities and those vulnerable to trafficking and forced labour.

LIFT's contribution to its goal and purpose is measured through three impact-level outcomes including improved nutrition status, particularly of women and children; increased household income and assets, with greater control by women; and reduced vulnerability of households and individuals to shocks, stresses and risks.

Our main goals are:

  • Civil society strengthening
  • Climate resilience
  • Conflict area development
  • Gender equality
  • Private sector partnerships
  • Natural resource management
  • Social protection and cohesion
