Communication for Participatory Approach and Transparency to Development Actions and Policies

To many of the identified stakeholders, an outsider bringing offers of "participatory development" may seem suspect. Prior experience with public agencies, public servants, and donor projects has, in many places, created negative impressions that need to be rectified.

Improving communication, engaging stakeholders in repeated interactions, and working through intermediaries who have ongoing relationships of trust with poor and vulnerable groups helped gain the participation of affected stakeholders.
