traditional livelihoods

Traditional livelihoods refer to the way communities sustain themselves through age-old practices and skills passed down through generations. These may include agriculture, fishing, hunting, and crafts, often closely tied to the local environment and culture. Such livelihoods not only provide food and income but also preserve cultural heritage and promote community bonds. They often value sustainability, using resources carefully to ensure that future generations can thrive. While modern economies are changing how people earn a living, traditional livelihoods remain important for many, offering resilience and a sense of identity in a rapidly evolving world.
