About the programmeWorking with communities.
Working with communities.
Understanding what matters.
The LifeDev Migration, Livelihoods & Health Equity Programme is a community-focused initiative of LifeDev Impact.
The programme explores how livelihood insecurity, migration, digital exclusion and socioeconomic disadvantage influence people’s access to healthcare, social services, reliable information and economic opportunities.
Through research, community engagement and practical interventions, we work with young people and underserved communities to better understand these challenges and develop responses that can improve access, opportunity and informed decision-making.
Four connected areas
What We Focus On
Livelihoods & Digital Opportunity
Improving awareness of digital skills, technology careers, learning opportunities and pathways that can expand economic choices.
Health & Social-Service Access
Understanding the barriers that prevent people from accessing healthcare, health insurance, social protection and other essential services.
Digital & Information Literacy
Helping communities identify reliable information, navigate digital services and make safer decisions online.
Our Current Initiative
Digital Opportunity & Safe Information Initiative
The Digital Opportunity & Safe Information Initiative works with young people in underserved communities to strengthen digital awareness, information literacy and informed decision-making.
The initiative also connects participants to continued learning opportunities through Borderless Skills (opens in a new tab) and relevant information resources where appropriate.
Through practical community sessions, participants explore:
Digital career and learning opportunities.
Responsible use of online information and how to identify misleading or fraudulent opportunities.
Trustworthy migration information sources.
Ways to find relevant health and social-service information.

as We Implement
LifeDev Impact is committed to building programmes based on evidence.
For selected activities, we assess participants’ knowledge and experiences before and after our interventions so we can understand what is working, identify gaps and improve future programmes.
Where formal research is conducted, appropriate ethical and data-protection requirements will be followed.
Our aim is not simply to count how many people attend our programmes, but to understand whether our interventions contribute to meaningful changes in knowledge, access and opportunity.
Who We Work With
We welcome opportunities to work with schools, universities, youth organisations, community groups, healthcare organisations, researchers, public institutions, NGOs and development partners.
We are particularly interested in partnerships that support community engagement, research, digital inclusion, migration information, health equity, livelihoods and access to essential services.
