Human Rights and Community-Led Development: Lessons from Tostan Cislaghi Ben
How can we best empower people living in the most economically disadvantaged areas of the world to improve their lives in ways that matter to them? The study is grounded in the ethnographic study of the actual change that happened in one West African village. This book investigates work of the NGO Tostan as a working model of human development.
Part two examines Tostan's community-based participatory approach as an example of a helpful development intervention, and offers qualitative evidence of its effectiveness. The result is a powerful mix of theory and practice that questions existing approaches to development and that speaks to both development scholars and practitioners.Divided into three parts, the book firstly assesses why top-down approaches to education and development are unhelpful and offers a theoretical understanding of what constitutes helpful development.
