About the program

Sustaining Families & Communities

At FRDP Pakistan, we fight hunger and empower vulnerable families through Food Security, Nutrition, and Livelihood (FSL) programs across rural Pakistan. Our integrated support helps ensure that people not only have access to enough safe and nutritious food but also opportunities to earn a stable income and build resilient livelihoods.

Why This Program Matters

  • Chronic poverty
  • Climate shocks
  • Limited access to markets

Across Pakistan’s rural and disaster-affected areas, chronic poverty, climate shocks, and limited access to markets make food insecurity and malnutrition persistent challenges. Our programs aim to reduce hunger, improve nutritional outcomes — especially for children and women — and support sustainable income generation for households.
