dc.description.abstract | Can rural development focus on people?
Can village communities identify and
develop their own opportunities and
resources as part of planned interventions
for development?
Yes was the answer with which an
experiment was started in 1975. Initiated
by the late Professor Ravi J Matthai, the
experiment has now lasted over a decade
and offers us many lessons.
Professor Ranjit Gupta, who has been
involved in this experiment, narrates it,
describes the role the experimenters
played, and stresses the self-sustaining
nature of the enthusiasm for action that
the experiment generated. The insights
gained from the experiment may have
significant implications for how rural
development activities should be
mounted. | |
