Neuware - The Policy Research Report Localizing Development: Does Participation Work brings analytical rigor to a field that has been the subject of intense debate and advocacy, and billions of dollars in development aid.

It draws on the evidence to suggest several recommendations for policy, emphasizing the key role of learning-by-doing.
