Engineering IGAs June 2009

Successful SHG enterprises in the Pilot IGA phase are healthy signs for implementation of focused IGAs. Grass-root project functionaries have attained a greater understanding of livelihood interventions, and will utilize their collective wisdom, along with the participating communities, for adopting best possible options.  

Full fledged IGA integration in the developmental efforts in the project VSSs will be started shortly, as most of the pre-implementation exercises for understanding resource base, marketing structure, and capacity building scenario for defining effective area specific regimens & comprehensive packages to the budding rural entrepreneurs are in the completion stage.
Project has organized several workshops and seminars to explore various potentials and sensitizing its facilitators about the nitty-gritty of the IGAs in the Project Areas. Convergence with other on-going programmes and projects is also being explored as an effective tool for augmenting a robust sustainable livelihood structure. In many areas, project is working with different Line-departments for providing livelihood support to the community, and there is absolute need to utilize these potentials for fulfilling basic human needs in all the project villages for successful livelihood interventions.

Field Experts of the General Consultant and the FEO (IGA) have to play pivotal role in grounding focused IGAs in the respective DMUs with active involvement of the Partner NGOs. For more effective monitoring and consequent process improvement, PMU has designated its officers (Jt. PDs and Dy. PDs) as nodal officers, who will visit the assigned DMUs once every month.
