|
| The
basic livelihood of a poor household
is based on his own as well as
family labour, which they invest to
earn daily wage and food. The
communities mainly indulge in
unskilled labour oriented
activities. Wherever need arises for
specific skill, the community hires
the skill from outside thus
resulting in an out flow of
resources from the village.
|
|
| In general, the supply of unskilled labour is more than adequate against
the demand which again results in reduced wage
rate so as to accommodate the whole
community to provide employment. Looking
into these complexities, the programme aims
to support the communities in enhancing
their skill set to meet the skill demand at
the village level through activity trainings
for strengthening their livelihood and
developing a potential human capital, which
can be utilized by the communities as
support services thus resulting in a
livelihood option for the individuals who
acquire the skill. This Capacity Building of
communities will fill the gaps between the
existing skill base and the required skill
base for taking up the activities selected
by the communities in order to enhance their
livelihood. These trainings and exposures
will cover components such as land & water
management, agriculture & horticulture
development, livestock & aquaculture
development, participatory forest
management, development of community
infrastructure etc. |
| Besides, specific skill
development training for non farm activities
will be provided to the SHGs and other
groups. Each sub sector (Livelihood
Enhancement Component) will have its own
strategy of implementation
indicating the capacity building needs. The
above sub sector strategies will again be triangulated with the Training Need
& Strength Assessment (TNSA) to be
conducted for the communities which
will identify the specific skill
gaps and training needs depending
upon the livelihood plan of the
village. |
 |
| The total
allocation under this sub component is Rs.
1.80 lakhs per MWS spread over the entire
programme cycle. The training or exposure
under this will have to be conducted before
the intended activity is taken up at the
village level. |
