Rural Livelihoods

Rural livelihoods refer to the ways people in countryside areas earn a living and sustain their communities. This includes activities like farming, livestock rearing, small businesses, and forestry. These livelihoods are vital for local economies and depend on natural resources and access to markets, education, and infrastructure. Improving rural livelihoods means supporting people with the skills, resources, and opportunities they need to earn a stable income, improve their quality of life, and build resilience against challenges like weather changes or economic shifts. It’s essential for reducing poverty and promoting sustainable development in rural areas.
