World Vision is directly contributing to reaching the United Nation’s top two priorities through its economic empowerment project THRIVE (Transforming Household Resilience in Vulnerable Environments). Already deployed in five countries, THRIVE (and its pilot, Securing Africa’s Future in Tanzania) integrates proven approaches to increasing incomes and strengthening resilience of rural
families and communities.
Along with the THRIVE initiative, World Vision and VisionFund, its microfinance institution, also are providing access to financial services for rural farmers and other vulnerable people.
THRIVE—Transforming Household Resilience in Vulnerable Environments—focuses on family-level change and is proven to dramatically increase household incomes, resulting in stronger and more self-sufficient families. Its program interventions systematically and comprehensively address the underlying causes of vulnerability, allowing families to sustainably progress out of poverty and into prosperity.
