FEG believes that good information about poor household livelihoods should be one of the most important considerations in a decision-making process. In light of this, FEG is committed, where possible, to sharing reports, tools, and insights with partners, clients and the public. The materials below are available for download.

The Practitioners' Guide to HEA is a collaborative effort by FEG and Save the Children - UK to develop a user friendly document to assist HEA practitioners, field staff and program planners.

The Atlas of Ethiopian Livelihoods draws on data assembled by the LIU that has up until now been absent; data that makes it possible to piece together a comprehensive and holistic picture of how rural households in Ethiopia make their living, and how they get by from year to year. This atlas is the culmination of an intensive multi-year effort that aimed to structure the local knowledge of tens of thousands of Ethiopians, and resulted in a unique set of detailed information about household economic operations. The original intent of this campaign was to provide a basis for improved national early warning, the premise being that it is possible to better predict the variable localized impacts of drought, market shocks, and other transient hazards on households’ economic well-being if we first understand the extent to which households in different areas of the country depend upon their own production, local and regional markets, and informal sources of income.

Reports  – For over a decade we have contributed to policy development, livelihoods and food security programming and early warning systems throughout the developing world.  Our reports have been used to inform decision-makers, guide policies and program planning and support emergency and development interventions.  In an effort to share our findings and inform the public, clients and other practitioners we have compiled a collection of reports - please feel free to browse this section to sample our work.

Case Studies - Our case studies provide practical examples of how our work can be used to answer an array of questions.
