Course: Local governance and rural decentralisation
27 February 2012 - 9 March 2012
Instead of being perceived as passive beneficiaries, rural populations are increasingly seen as citizens who have the right to participate and who demand good local governance. This has led to the understanding that local governance for rural development should be addressed as a multi-stakeholder process with interactions taking place at different levels amongst actors with different ambitions or perceptions. In this course you will learn how to deal with the complexity of governance and the engagement with multiple actors each with their own ambitions.
