Mission & Goals
Livelihoods is a private sector initiative investing in large scale projects of natural ecosystem restoration, regenerative agriculture, agroforestry and rural energy aiming at creating sustainable ecological and social value. Livelihoods strategic pillars are twofold: Within the value chain: Livelihoods partners with large corporations that source raw material from agriculture or forestry to help them transform their supply chain and meet their social and ecological commitments. In mature economies, Livelihoods mobilizes coalitions of actors along the value chain from farmers to cooperatives, processors and brands to foster regenerative agriculture practices to restore soils & biodiversity. Beyond the value chain: Livelihoods Carbon Funds (LCF) work with companies committed to become zero net. In addition to their effort to curb carbon emissions in their operations, product design, etc. these companies invest in Livelihoods projects which provide them with high quality carbon credits.
