| Summary≠ | Value Chain Analysis examines the full sequence of activities required to bring a product or service from conception through production to final consumers and beyond, asking who does what, who governs the chain, and how the value created is distributed among participants. In its development and pro-poor variant, codified in Kaplinsky and Morris's IDS handbook and grounded in Gereffi's global-value-chain theory, the method is used to identify how poor producers and workers can capture a larger or more secure share of value through upgrading and inclusion. | The Sustainable Livelihoods Framework (SLF) is an analytical lens for understanding how poor households construct their livelihoods, drawing on five categories of capital assets within a vulnerability context that is mediated by institutions and policies. Crystallised by Robert Chambers and Gordon Conway and operationalised by Ian Scoones and the UK Department for International Development (DFID) in the late 1990s, it shifts development analysis from sector-by-sector or income-only views to a holistic, people-centred account of what people have, what they do with it, and what outcomes result. |
