About the Event

Join IDEAL, in-person or online, to hear about new resilience research from two Nepal Development Food Security Activities (DFSAs): Promoting Agriculture, Health, and Alternative Livelihoods (PAHAL) and Sustainable Action for Resilience and Food Security (Sabal).

Two new resilience studies, recently presented at the Nepal Resilience Learning Event in Kathmandu, will be shared at this interactive learning event:

  • The Sustainable Action for Resilience and Food Security (Sabal) research examines whether social capital plays a role in building resilience and, if so, which types (bonding, bridging, linking) of social capital contribute most to high-level resilience outcomes.
  • The Promoting Agriculture, Health, and Alternative Livelihoods (PAHAL) research employed a Recurrent Monitoring Survey (RMS) to understand the impact of the PAHAL resilience integration model as well as the cost-effectiveness of the model in order to test ways to achieve the same results with different or fewer interventions.

Join us to delve into the studies with Katherine Arnold Armeier from Save the Children (Sabal) and Kristen Schubert from Causal Design (PAHAL) to explore what their findings mean for resilience programming. Olga Petryniak, Mercy Corps's Senior Resilience Director, will lead a Q&A session around the findings, lessons learned, and implications for programming.
