| description | Sustainable Livelihoods Approach emerged in the 1980s as a
new analytical approach in the field of rural development in
which the rural livelihood capitals form the basis of the villagers'
empowerment and their ability to get involved in their own individual
and social destiny. This study aimed to answer the
question that how much the importance of each type of livelihood
capitals is in the Central District of Dena County in an attempt
to improve rural development interventions. The statistical population
of the study consisted of local experts of Central District
of Dena County that involved village managers and village
council members out of which 15 individuals were purposefully
selected based on their accessibility. Data were collected through
a questionnaire which was developed to conduct pairwise comparisons
of livelihood capitals according to the ANP method.
Super Decisions software was used in order to rank livelihood
capitals and their sub-indexes. The results showed that from
among the five types of capital, physical capital was at the first
priority. In addition, human, natural and social capitals were at
the second, third and fourth priorities, respectively. Finally,
financial capital was in the last priority. Therefore, in planning
and investing to achieve sustainable livelihood in rural areas,
physical and human capital should be taken into consideration
more than any other capitals. |
