The Rural Livelihood Development Programme (RLDP) was financed by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and implemented by HELVETAS Swiss Intercooperation and Swisscontact between 2005 and 2015. It aimed to improve livelihoods of smallholder producers and related enterprises in the Central Corridor of Tanzania through increased income and employment opportunities.

The programme included women-targeted initiatives with the goal of improving women’s economic empowerment. The livelihood approach in poultry rearing was one of the interventions. This intervention was chosen because of women’s dominance in poultry rearing at the household level and the perceived market potential of the sector.
