What has worked well ? • Organization of CIG’s, Capacity Building, Hand holding support of NGO’s – most of the Groups are functional. • 70% to 80% Groups have opted for Agriculture & Allied Sectors (reflects that the primary nature of State’s economy) and a natural choice. • Many innovative activities like Swiss Cottages in Rajsamand, Bicycle leasing, MDM in Tonk, Forest enclosures in Baran, Kund based desert horticulture etc. have been successfully implemented. • Assets are in tact – loss of assets within permissible limits, 5 of non performing assets(with zero income) is negligible. • Average income generation is about Rs. 500/- – 600/- per month per member. Contd..
Preparation,sanction and implementation of sub projects have taken an average time of 1 year to 1.5 years. • About 10% CIG’s have acquired additional assets through own/bank resources indicating a growth of business. • The poor are ready to pay for services )AH Services through Saheli cluster in Dausa by Pradhan), Insurance. • Groups demand for more credit – bank linkages – indicative of their hunger for development
What has not worked ? • Capacity Building – EMD,Skill Trainings delayed, lack of clear policy and time frame. • Sequencing of activities –not strictly followed – focus shifted to expenditure from 3rd year. • Insurance – disbursement of claims. • Convergence • Lack of focus & action for backward & forward linkages : • Pasture Development • Veterinary Development • Marketing Linkages (15% to 20% Groups) Contd..
Sub Project ‘Performance on outcomes I.e. income generation not measured either by NGO’s or support agencies (IDS,MART, BASIX etc.) • Lack of team spirit between NGO’s, DPM & SPU • Delay in purchase of 2nd unit for dairy • Lack of focus on livelihood approach • Livelihood assets • Natural : Land, Water, Forest, Livestock • Human : Skill, Knowledge, Education • Physical : Implements, Technology, Tools • Financial : Savings, Credit, Subsidy • Social : Groups, Membership of higher bodies like clusters Contd..
Technology transfer gaps particularly in land development & allied sector. • Procedures, frequent change in policies. • Group Contribution – very difficult for the poor to manage. • Envisioning at the time of Sub Project preparation – Gap funding for infrastructure relating to livelihood, Resource mapping. • Sectoral experience of NGO’s (Sadguru – Water Management, MART – Marketing, BASIX – Micro Credit etc.) not used in overall project implementation. • Clusters & Federations not formed for support.
