商品簡介
Tandi and Mawere explore the role that people-centered public works programs play in fighting poverty and supporting the economic development of rural communities in Africa. The continuing high rate of poverty in rural Africa is not because the approach is misguided, they contend, but because it has not been well conducted. They discuss poverty in rural Africa; theory, poverty, and development; people-centered public works programs, poverty, and development; bridging the gap between the poor and the rich through public works programs in Africa: some case studies; public works programs and sustainable development in Africa; and public works programs that work: a seed for rural development.
