Scaling up Community-driven Development Theoretical Underpinnings and Program Design Implications
نویسنده
چکیده
Community-Driven Development (CDD) boasts many islands of success, but few of them have scaled up to cover entire countries. This paper examines the possible obstacles and possible solutions. It considers the theoretical case for CDD, and case studies of success. Obstacles to scaling up include high economic/fiscal costs, adverse institutional barriers, problems associated with the co-production of outputs by different actors, lack of adaptation to the local context using field-tested manuals, and lack of scaling-up logistics. The paper considers ways to overcome these five obstacles, and scale up CDD like a successful franchise. Detailed annexes and checklists provide a guide to program design, diagnostics, and tools.
