It should be noted that this project was active between April 2011 and March 2016. The project aimed to build the resilience of project participants to a number of different shocks and stresses. Households' livelihoods in the region are typically based around agricultural activities, which are threatened by floods, droughts, outbreaks of human and animal diseases, and spells of especially cold weather. The project worked at a number of different levels to reduce households' vulnerability to these risks. Within communities, a programme of training and support was provided to enhance the activities of local disaster management committees and women's empowerment groups (WEGs). Improved Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) facilities were also constructed, as well as small-scale flood mitigation structures, such as embankments, culverts, and dams. The project also supported district- and national-level institutions to help create disaster management plans, which should have a wider impact on resilience. Furthermore, the project undertook some advocacy activities to try and change national policies related to disaster management. Data collection took place in January 2016 in four districts in the Terai region of southern Nepal - Dhanusha, Rautahat, Salarhi, and Saptari. The intervention group consisted of a randomly selected sample of project households from eight Village Development Committees (VDCs) - which are similar to municipalities - using household lists based on lists of WEG members. The comparison group consisted of a randomly selected sample of households from 12 non-project VDCs that were similar to the project communities in terms of a number of key characteristics, including the dominant livelihood strategies employed by community members, the distance of the community from large rivers, and the ethnic composition of the community.
