Bridging Diversity: Participatory Learning for Responsive Development

Lawrence F. Salmen and Eileen Kane

No 6992 in World Bank Publications - Books from The World Bank Group

Abstract: Today, one of the central tenets of development is the necessity for learning about and building upon stakeholders' and beneficiaries' insights, needs, culture, social organization, resources and active participation. This publication clarifies the myriad approaches to social research being used in the World Bank today. The focus is on participatory research as presently practiced and as a potential for forms of research which are not now particularly participatory. It makes a number of recommendations to enhance the utility of social research in and outside of the Bank.
