In particular, two major questions were analysed:
- What role do VSLA groups play in strengthening the capacity of communities to face recurrent food crises?
- What role do VSLA and CBA approaches combined play in increasing the long-term resilience of communities?
The report demonstrates how the VSLA and CBA approaches enable women to strengthen their family and community’s 'safety net', and highlights the added value brought by the combination of both approaches in the global fight for resilience and in partnership with other actors.
