Livelihoods and
Lasting Solutions

The Livelihoods and Lasting Solutions Intervention Sector was created by theFraternity – International Humanitarian Missions (FIHM) to promote actions that help in the integration of the immigrant and refugee Venezuelan population in Brazil, generating autonomy for those families.

The financial livelihood of these people requires a lasting response, not just an emergency one, and one that shows ways for them to discover opportunities to rebuild their lives.

During 2020, the first Livelihoods projects began, which went beyond just the indigenous handicrafts, that had been encouraged since the beginning of the RoraimaHumanitarian Mission. In the second semester of that year, results began to appear. Courses were offered to indigenous and non-indigenous people, besides the training on Livelihoods offered in the shelters. These first trainings were the seed of the Livelihoods and Lasting Solutions Intervention Sector.
