This report reviews DRC livelihoods and protection
programme in northern and eastern Sri Lanka. The
objectives of the review were to:
 
? assess the overall relevance and impact of the
programme on protection and livelihoods from
2006 until mid-2008; and
? provide recommendations for the future
development of the programme, in particular how
to sharpen and strengthen the livelihoods
approach and livelihoods activities in
programmes.
 
The review was also part of DRC?s global livelihoods
and protection initiative. The objective of this review
is to strengthen DRC?s corporate learning and
understanding of how livelihood and protection
approaches can be combined and mutually reinforce
each other for the benefit of assisted people.
