Abstract

Current livelihoods, levels of income, opportunities within the current policy framework for future employment and the functioning of various pilot projects are explored through interviews, focus groups and questionnaires in the three provinces that form the study area. Sources of income for the displaced persons are examined, including remittances and stipends as well as wages from employment and income generation from running small businesses. Pilot projects, such as providing training in weaving, do not contribute significantly to income generation, and most families have an income that is too low for a reasonable standard of living, primarily because of the cost of childcare.

The information as mentioned represented micro-perspective, therefore it produced a somewhat different picture than the statistics presented in Chap.​ 4 suggest (Chap. 4; Table 4.​1). In Chap.​ 4 represent the macro-perspective; the information was based on the National database such as Socio-Economic Survey.
