Decentralisation and Sustainable Rural Livelihoods
This paper addresses the institutional issue relating to sustainable rural livelihoods, focusing in particular on decentralisation. In its analysis it considers people not just as clients (involved in a two–way service relationship) but as citizens who have fundamental rights to democratic accountability and to a role in decision-making about the services they receive. Adopting a ‘citizen’ approach is therefore participatory and empowering; it should make a significant contribution to the development of human and social capital.
