Developing Integrated Holistic Solutions

There is a need to adopt a community-based approach that involves building the capacity of local communities for sustainability. Save the Children developed and used household economy analysis in addressing food insecurity. This is a livelihoods-based framework for analysing the way people obtain access to the things they need to survive and prosper. It helps determine people’s food and non-food needs and identify appropriate means of assistance.

The World Bank organises 'Law, justice and development' week every November where they talk about the big issues in development from a legal perspective. The Chief Justice of Tanzania was engaged in discussions surrounding how women experience the legal system. This led to a conference on women and the judiciary in Tanzania. The conference had survivors of sexual abuse share their experiences in the legal system and judges were present listening. The outcome of this has been changes in the system by the chief justice of Tanzania to make it easier for women to access justice through the court system.
