Abstract: A new direction for more integrative development has emerged in which human needs are the centerpiece, and in which meeting the basic needs of the world's poorest is seen as the most urgent challenge. This is viewed not only as a strategy for helping the poor in the poorer nations to meet their own needs, but as part of a larger pattern of interdependent global development through which all nations may seek more diversified and sustainable directions for growth. The constituency of concern within which these directions are being formulated extends beyond conventional governmental groups to include new sets of participants in the larger development dialogue.
