NRLM Mission
"To reduce poverty by enabling the poor households to access
gainful self-employment and skilled wage employment opportunities, resulting in
appreciable improvement in their livelihoods on a sustainable basis, through
building strong grassroots institutions of the poor."
NRLM Guiding Principles
· Poor have a strong desire
to come out of poverty, and they have innate capabilities
· Social mobilization and
building strong institutions of the poor is critical for unleashing the innate
capabilities of the poor.
· An external dedicated and
sensitive support structure is required to induce the social mobilization,
institution building and empowerment process.
· Facilitating knowledge
dissemination, skill building, access to credit, access to marketing, and
access to other livelihoods services underpins this upward mobility.
