๐Ÿ“ŒRCCSI Conducts Exposure Visit and Market Linkages Activity for CSO Egg Production Livelihoods

The Research Center for Culture and Social Issues (RCCSI) conducted an Exposure Visit and Market Linkages for CSO Livelihood Development on April 10, 2026 in Sta. Cruz, Tarangnan, Samar, with two Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) engaged in egg production as their primary livelihood enterprise.

The activity provided participants with practical learning through a guided tour of the farmโ€™s chicken houses and discussions on poultry layer management, production practices, and operational considerations necessary for sustaining egg production enterprises. The exposure visit forms part of RCCSIโ€™s continuing coaching and mentoring efforts to strengthen the operational capacity and sustainability of assisted CSO livelihood initiatives.

RCCSI extends its sincere appreciation to Poyjeโ€™s Egg Farm for warmly accommodating the visit and generously sharing valuable knowledge and practical insights in egg production with the participating organizations.
