520			_aWhile ‘participation’ has been part of development discourse since the 1960s, it has generally referred to people’s involvement in particular projects or programmes. But now participation is regarded as an overall development strategy integral to people-centred growth—a route by which the energies of the common people can be tapped to build strategies of tackling development-related issues. People are, thus, closely involved in the social, cultural, economic and political processes affecting their lives and have constant access to decision-making and power. Covering topics like grassroots governance, gender and ethics, enabling frameworks, and participatory planning, this book draws attention to participation’s promise while reminding the reader of the need to take cognizance of the obstacles in the way. This volume will guide initiatives and help create awareness of the kinds of issues that need to be tackled, provide a grassroots perspective of the promise and perils of participatory pathways along with a glimpse of the role people’s participation can play in building a better world.
