Facilitating Community Driven Development In Nigeria

Facilitating Community Driven Development is an attempt at demystifying the concepts of community facilitation and CDD in Nigeria. It explains the two concepts in a simple manner, citing first hand experiences the author had while discharging his duties as a community facilitator and later as a trainer and supervisor. It reviews participatory rural appraisal tools and logical framework among others. The book also explains the use of problem and solution trees and how these are progressively incorporated into Local Development Plans (LDPs). An attempt was also made at explaining how LDPs are impemented through the preparation of sub project proposals which was decisively dealt with. Other concepts like the newly introduced Fadama Users'Equity Fund (FUEF) are also highlighted for easy understanding of current and would-be community facilitators
