Working through these pages, you or your group should now have a clearer idea of what might be some of the benefits or problems of the livelihood idea. You can now complete a table that summarises the assessment that you have done on each of the previous steps:
Step 01: Natural resources
Step 02: Equipment
Step 03: People and skills
Step 04: Markets
Step 05: Finances
The following table (page 16 of the booklet) can be used to list some of the main issues relating to the idea you considered. The questions in the boxes relate to the questions on the previous steps. The final column gives you a chance to score the idea as good = promising, bad = with serious problems, or in need of more information.
