Use of Sustainable Livelihoods Approaches
Participation in development activity is both enabled and constrained
by individual identities, the actions of community workers and the
workings of the institutions. This research examined the interfaces
between these groupings in relation to three research objectives:
- To
understand individual participation in collective activity
- To
understand the contribution of community-workers in participatory
processes
- To
understand the possibilities for 'getting institutions right'
for pro-poor development
Whilst
the ideology of empowerment through community participation has
been mainstream, few micro-level studies have examined this interaction.
