Minority groups such as women and lower of backward castes persons are involved at many levels and incorporated specifically into all programme. The outcome has been that there has been a growing involvement of these groups in RKC activities.
There is now an increase in the willingness among the community to invest and consider environmentally friendly solutions in their livelihood activities. Eg. Certain Agarya community members agreed to use and install wind generated energy pump instead of diesel pumps to in salt farming process.
Resource literacy of the local persons with regard to water, salinity, desertification, usage of pesticides has seen a considerable increase over the time span of the formation of the RKC. |
The adopting of time tested practices such as drip irrigation, composting, reuse of agricultural waste, introduction of bio pesticides, rain roof water harvesting etc in the villages surrounding the RKC as an outcome of interactions and RKC interventions is a direct measure of on site impacts. |
Troubleshooting: The RKC has become now a nodal centre of knowledge for livelihood related problem solving issues. The RKC is playing a consultative role on multiple areas to the local community in tackling locale issues personally
In terms of production or process oriented towards positive impacts in tackling soil degradation and sustainable agriculture many small process have been introduced or minor alterations in older methods of farming etc have been added.
A case study of this can be seen in the gradual empowerment of the Agarya community of the region (salt Pan workers) They are now more aware of their rights as labor and are organizing towards earning fair wages and better work conditions.

Other NGO’s, CBO’s and individuals who do not belong to the target group or not specifically within the region have begun to come to the RKC to utilize the facilities and resources to understand environmental issues and other issues.|
2. The RKC has become a nodal space for discussion on multiple cross cutting issues

Биологийн төрөл зүйл, уур амьсгалын өөрчлөлтийн нөлөөлөл

Шалтгааныг тайлбарлана уу: :

Climate change adaptation in a semi arid region would require a clear understanding of the increasing onslaught of desert like conditions, reducing or uneven rain patterns and water shortages and relation water problems. Adaptation to these have been firmly professed by the RKC from the start. |
The RKC Model empowers and provides a nodal knowledge base to support local community organizations as also individuals. These inputs are with regards to the suitable development practices that could be incorporated into livelihood activities.
