Promoting Sustainable Livelihoods: Concepts and Approaches

 
S. Rajagopalan (Author)
Synopsis Nearly half of the world’s population lives on less than $2 a day, and close to a fifth on less than $1 a day. India alone accounts for 360 million people living below the $1 mark. Poverty and deprivation of such scale and magnitude at the beginning of the 21st century stand in stark contrast to the considerable achievements of mankind. Clearly, such a situation is unacceptable, and the UN Millennium Development goals rightly target reduction of extreme poverty globally, by half, by the year 2015. This book looks at the concepts involved in promoting sustainable livelihoods, some of the strategies and approaches that can be effectively employed in promoting sustainable livelihoods, and presents a few case studies that demonstrate the application of the concepts, the strategies and approaches.
