Videos from the conference - Revitalising agrarian economy and livelihoods

'Revitalising agrarian economy and livelihoods – presentations of studies and enterprise development initiatives of Timbaktu Collective in Ananthapuramu District', held on March 18 and 19, 2016, the Ecology Centre, in Ananthapuramu.

As you know, the Collective has been working for more than 25 years on issues of sustainable development in four mandals of Ananthapuramu District in Andhra Pradesh. In the process we have also developed various business models for socioeconomic change in the region. The objective of this event was to bring all our stakeholders on to a common platform to present key findings of three research studies and highlight the achievements of the rural business enterprises promoted by the Collective.

The three research studies which were commissioned by us, and which formed the basis for discussion, are as follows:

• Scaling up agro-ecological production systems among smallholder farmers for sustainable livelihoods: A study of the Ananthapuramu District ;
• Livelihood through Livestock: Towards resilience and sustainability in Ananthapuramu District ;
• The Status of Nutrition among women and children in Ananthapuramu District.

 We also shared information on the achievements of the following business enterprises:

• The Dharani Farming and Marketing Cooperative [‘Timbaktu Organic’] ;
• The Gramasiri Agricultural Labour Cooperative [focusing on the rearing of small ruminants] ;
