( NRRMS )
Livelihood Promotion
NRRM envisages that the poor move gradually on the continuum from consumption → debt swapping → enhancement of existing livelihoods → diversification. Major focus of NRRM is to stabilize and promote existing livelihoods portfolio of the poor, in farm and in non-farm sectors. NRRM would look at the entire portfolio of livelihoods of each household and facilitate support for the activities at the individual/household level, or in a collective, or at both levels. As agriculture is the mainstay livelihoods activity for a large proportion of the rural poor, NRRM will lay special focus on sustainable agriculture and allied activities like animal husbandry, non-timber forest produce and fisheries.
