The National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM), now known as Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana – National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM), is a flagship program of the Government of India aimed at poverty reduction in rural areas.
The primary strategy of NRLM is to reduce poverty by building strong institutions of the poor, particularly women, and enabling these institutions to access a range of financial and livelihood services. This is achieved through promoting self-employment and providing opportunities for skill development among the rural poor.
NRLM focuses on creating sustainable livelihood options for the rural poor. It works through mobilizing poor households into Self Help Groups (SHGs) and their federations, providing financial assistance (revolving fund, community investment support fund), and facilitating access to bank credit and other financial services. It also supports capacity building and skill development for diversified livelihoods.
