Pastoral Community Development Project
Pastoral Community Development Project
The project's goal is to improve prospects for sustainable livelihoods among herders living in arid and semi-arid lowlands. It is designed to empower communities and enable the decentralized regional administration to better manage local development through community-based development planning linked to a community investment fund.
The project also supports a participatory disaster-management programme to reduce rural poor people's vulnerability to drought and other natural disasters. Underlying these efforts are policy reform and investments in health, education and veterinary services, as well as applied research into dryland agriculture and natural resource management. The project works to identify and develop alternative livelihoods to improve the integration of herders' communities within the national economy.
In its initial five-year phase, the project focuses primarily on the needs and priorities of rural households living in one third of the pastoral and agropastoral villages in the four regions. About 20 per cent of these households are headed by women. In this phase, the aims of the project are to contribute to the growth and stability of household incomes, improve access to social and public services, improve social relations and institutions and help reduce vulnerability to disaster.

Sudan - Training and skills development within the Gash Sustainable Livelihoods Regeneration Project (GSLRP)
The case study in Sudan, undertaken in the framework of the Initiative for Mainstreaming Innovation (IMI), analyzed training and skills development activities in the IFAD-supported Gash Sustainable Livelihoods Regeneration Project (GSLRP).
The study is an assessment of the type of capacity building and training that can be implemented in an area of great poverty using innovative approaches in community development and training. It illustrates the kind of impact that is possible at individual and community level.
