description |
BRAC launched IGVGO Programme to improve the condition of the poorest women covered
by Vulnerable Groups Development (VGO) Programme. In this context high yielding variety
(HYV) poultry birds rearing was introduced as an income generating activity for increasing the
economic and nutritional well-being of the IGVGO participants. To sustain the process of development
of the participants, BRAC merged IGVGO with Rural Development Programme
(ROP). It is found that RDP could not include many of the very poor and disadvantaged
women.
The objectives of the study were to :
1. investigate the changes brought about by the Programme in its participant households;
2. assess the extent to which the Programme represented the 'poorest of the poor' ; and
3. know the reasons for drop out of the participants from the IGVGO. |
