dc.descriptionThis report highlights the shift towards participatory development approaches, focusing on DSC’s training initiatives for NGOs in Gujarat. The programmes emphasized watershed management, community participation, and technical skills like hydro-geology. Tailored trainings were conducted for NGO leaders, Watershed Development Teams, and village-level volunteers. Exposure visits and field-based methodologies enriched the learning process and encouraged inter-agency collaboration.
dc.description.abstractThe development paradigm has undergone a considerable shift, over the years. Concepts such as people centred planning, seeing the community as partners in development instead of passive beneficiaries", "sustainable development" are being accepted by development agencies, be it Government or non government. "Participation" has become the key word. There is a realisation that the benefits of development programmes are greatly enhanced in quality when participatory methods are adopted. The appreciation of participatory development approach is more wide spread now than before. However, the knowledge and skill base is not. If more and more agencies are to adopt this approach it is essential that the key functionaries and development workers are given adequate exposure and training.
