We can also see other activities like women making butter and baskets to sell and men who fish. But what do rural livelihoods mean? Let us explore this topic.

Watersheds in India are broadly grouped into five agro-climatic zones: (i) Trans-Gangetic Plain zone, (ii) Western Himalayan zone, (iii) Western Plateau and Hill zone, (iv) Gujarat Plains and Hill zone, and (v) Southern zone. Participatory watershed management and its evolution Participatory watershed management has emerged as a new paradigm for sustainable rural livelihoods and it occupied the central-stage of rural development in the fragile and semiarid environments of the developing nations. The WDT works closely with the rural communities in planning and implementing the watershed program. Each WDT is expected to handle 10 micro watersheds.

The report presents field experiences and lessons in developing Incentive-based Mechanisms (IBMs) for watershed protection services and improved livelihoods at micro and macro-scales, derived from an action-learning project in India at three locations in the states of Himachal Pradesh.

The report presents field experiences and lessons in developing Incentive-based Mechanisms (IBMs) for watershed protection services and improved livelihoods at micro and macro-scales, derived from an action-learning project in India at three locations in the states of Himachal Pradesh (HP) and Madhya Pradesh (MP). An inter-village transaction was facilitated at one site (the Kuhan micro-catchment in HP), while at the second site (Suan micro-catchment in HP) a transaction failed to materialize despite initial interest.
