From the blurb:
This book is a “toolbox” for rural-development stakeholders and professionals – extension workers, advocates, community leaders, researchers – who wish to improve and systematize community participation in projects and initiatives. It is intended for those who have realized, through their own experiences, that participation is an essential prerequisite for sustainable development.
