| Summary: | The JOHAR project was initiated in 2017
to aid targeted rural producer households to diversify and
enhance their household income, and achieve a significant
increase in real income until 2023 in selected blocks of
rural Jharkhand. The JOHAR project recently completed a
baseline for the project evaluation using a randomized
controlled trial, supplemented with a non-random control
group outside the program area that provides a
counterfactual based on an additional quasi-experimental
design. The purpose of this note is to present key baseline
results and how they validate the project's theory of
change. It summarizes the findings from the baseline,
presents the status-quo on potential JOHAR beneficiaries,
and outlines how the project can achieve its target of
enhancing and diversifying the income of rural producer households. |
