Rural livelihoods approach

The Rural Livelihoods Approach is a way to understand and improve the way people living in rural areas earn a living. It considers all the different ways they make money and access resources, such as farming, livestock, small businesses, and wage work. The approach looks at the assets people have (like skills, land, and tools), the risks they face, and the opportunities available. Its goal is to develop strategies that help rural families become more secure, resilient, and able to improve their standard of living over time.
