The
main focus of CWDS is on the economic upliftment of the people at
the household level without undermining the related other important
rural development activities as identified by the people in the
area. The emphasis has been on the farming based income generating
activities. Training (on technology & management) facilitation,
exposure visits and experience sharing with intensive follow-up
by the facilitators and professionals of CWDS have played vital
roles in motivating the people in the program participation. Vegetable
production, goat raising, piggery and other related enterprises
have been initiated in more concerted ways in the year 1999. A brief
about the output of the activities is given below.
