Strengthening Household Ability to Respond to Development Opportunities (SHOUHARDO) III Plus Executive Summary

The Strengthening Household Ability to Respond to Development Opportunities (SHOUHARDO) III Plus is a two-year activity (2022-2024, extended to January 2025) funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). This initiative aims to enhance food security, resilience, and income for 168,521 Poor and Extreme Poor (PEP) households in the remote Char and deep Haor regions of Bangladesh. By focusing on income diversification, sustainable agriculture, market access, financial services, and nutrition, the program emphasizes gender equity, governance, disaster risk reduction, environmental considerations, and private sector engagement to maximize its impact.

The project engages local service providers (LSPs) to connect communities with government and private sector resources, promoting the consumption of nutritious foods and micronutrients, particularly for children under five, pregnant and lactating women, and adolescent girls. The intervention spans eight districts: four in the Char region (Kurigram, Gaibandha, Sirajganj, and Jamalpur) and four in the Haor region (Netrokona, Kishoreganj, Habiganj, and Sunamganj).
