Managing Grassroots Development |
| |
PREMISE: In Nigeria, the local government authorities constitute the third and closest tier of government to the people at the grassroots. This situation makes them the most likely to make development efforts that can lead to sustainable improvement in their lives of the rural dwellers. However most of the operatives at the local level are not fully equipped with the enabling skills and attitudes to engender sustainable development at the grassroots.
OBJECTIVES:
This course is designed to enhance capacity of grassroots development operatives to undertake participatory development. Specifically, at the end of course, participants should be ably to:
|
|
|
- Identify community needs and priorities using participatory approaches;
- Plan and implement people oriented projects;
- Mobilize people for self-help; and
- Effectively monitor and evaluate development programmes.
