Practical Action Publishing Participatory Development Practice: Using traditional and contemporary frameworks

From indigenous people’s groups to classroom teachers, community workers and international development workers, comes the desire to build community. Participatory Development Practice provides a theoretical and applied base for rethinking development practice that is deeply influenced by a "community" development tradition, yet is broader, as it links the intra-personal dimension to the participatory, dialogical, community and international dimensions. The book is framed conceptually as implicate method (starting with self), micro (relational), mezzo (group), macro (structuring the work within people’s organizations) and meta (the local-global dimension).
