Why MLSP

Why MLSP
Migration is one of the most important components of the livelihoods of tribals in the project area.
This brings 80% of the total households cash income.
Migrants have their own very genuine problems and issues related to migration which contributed to make the migration more difficult and brings hardships, and long term implications in the lives of people. However, migration is disliked by most of the migrants, this fact has been recognized since long but there has been a very limited efforts put in collectively by NGOs/ Govt.
The project has now over 10 years experience of working with resource poor tribal communities.
This has facilitated close understanding of the communities and has related the effects of out migration on their livelihoods
In order to minimize the ill-effect of such out-migration, the concept of a “Migrant Labour Support Program” (MLSP) was mooted.
An innovative MLSP became operational since April, 2002.
