NCR Component

The broad objectives of this component are:

To have an increased understanding of multi stakeholder approaches to development issues, regulatory environment and capacities to cope up with multiple vulnerabilities.

Commission demonstrated projects and testing of innovative approaches to NGOs working in the NCR.

To develop policy guideline based on action plans prepared by civil societies, news media and local government on urgent livelihoods and living condition problems.

It is proposed that support be provided to those activities that can demonstrate and address issues related to urban poverty, promotion of livelihoods and solving city level problems related to access to land and security of tenure for housing and informal sector, household activities, occupations falling under vulnerable groups, improvement in basic facilities such as mobilizations for pro-poor slums, new resettlement colonies, unauthorised colonies, improvement of education facilities for urban slum children, health and children with disabilities.

Successful outcomes of these initiatives will provide the basis for an improved policy and regulatory environment. They will also enhance the capacities of urban local authorities and community organizations to expand the access, entitlements and assets of the urban poor for decent and secure livelihoods.
