Description

Participatory Development (PDev) is a widely used strategy by Third World governments and international organizations like the World Bank to reduce poverty and empower communities. While the focus on people-centered approaches and partnerships offers political appeal, practical results often differ from expectations. This Routledge publication examines why interventions intended to increase PDev and reduce poverty sometimes fail to achieve lasting empowerment, transformation, or sustainability. Through an in-depth study of the Basic Education Improvement Project (BEIP) implemented by the Government of Kenya, this book provides a detailed look at development management in practice. It offers essential insights for those studying how participatory methods function within real-world social and political frameworks.
