| Summary: | About two years ago, an effort was
launched to try and harmonize the World Bank's
considerable experience with community participation in a
number of African countries. This effort was initiated by a
group of organizations including the Benin National Research
Institute, the Benin National Extension Service, the Royal
Institute for the Tropics, and the World Bank. Very quickly,
this group of organizations was expanded to include a
variety of research, extension and other rural development
organizations in about ten countries, with active support
from bi, and multilaterals such as Food and Agricultural
Organization (FAO), International Fund for Agricultural
Development (IFAD), German Agency for Technical Cooperation
(GTZ, and others. The goal of the effort was to make
community participation truly multi-sectoral and to use the
approach to cover entire countries over a relatively short
period of time. |
