Abstract

This book adopts the sustainable rural livelihoods framework proposed by Department for International Development (DFID) as the conceptual framework. The asset pentagon forms the center of the framework. Vulnerability context constitutes the backdrop against which livelihoods are created. Another component is the structures and processes that refer to the institutions, organizations, policies, and legislation that shape livelihoods. Given the vulnerability context, a unit utilizes its assets, structures, and processes to devise livelihood strategies so as to achieve the desired livelihood outcomes. There are various forward linkages and backward loops in the framework that show the interactions among the components. The analytical framework of the book is based on the sustainable rural livelihoods framework, whereby the components are modified to the suit the objectives of the study.
