Integrated rural livelihoods: Strengthening Madhepura
The Challenge
Rural households face low, uncertain incomes and limited livelihood options.
We support households to diversify across agriculture, livestock, and enterprise. Goat health camps and Pashu Sakhi training improve livestock productivity. Nutrition gardens reduce costs and improve diets. Women's self-help groups build savings habits and fund micro-businesses. Solar lighting extends safe, productive hours. The rationale: compounding small, reliable gains creates long-term income resilience.
