The Project aims to help conflict-affected communities in the NE Province and adjoining areas to restore livelihoods, enhance agricultural and other production and incomes, and build capacity for sustainable, social and economic reintegration.

The Project Development Objective will be achieved through a) creating, restoring, or improving essential village-level social and economic infrastructure and facilities; b) improving productivity, sustainability and competitiveness of agriculture; c) building skills and capacity and decentralizing powers for decision making, control of resources and implementation of programs at the community level; and d) implementing targeted livelihood-support programs for the most vulnerable (such as land mine victims, people with war-induced deficient abilities, widows, women-headed households).
