Livelihood development is really interesting field of social work. The person really wants work satisfaction then it lies in this field. As there is need of researcher and the person who can motivate and will show way the people to move forward.
In most of the cases the livelihood support only cater among the beneficiaries, then there was no follow up, after some days, month the beneficiaries was found as it is. In some cases without doing studies of livelihood support, the agencies/ Govt. provides support which was at last found lose of money and fund only. So if someone really wants to work for livelihood development of needy community, he/she must have to search the best appropriate option of livelihood, they have some long term plan, and also the options of livelihood which will be sustainable. This is not an easy job, this required lot of mental involvement & concentration on task, continuous follow up, innovation, new way of finding solutions for setbacks, patience to cross the hurdle came from the sides of Govt. Agencies and even from beneficiaries, exploring markets for the products all these are essentials tools for the success of Livelihood Development. There is lots of things to do, only need is to explore it and used for the development of community.
