Human development is the process of enlarging possibilities, to enhance human choices. In a developing country like India several initiatives have been undertaken in rural areas to do so. However, after seven decades of planned development, several challenges still remain. One of the major factors for the successful implementation of human development policies is the active participation of the people for whom the development initiatives are meant. Strategies for Human Development and People's Participation unravels the indepth dynamics of people's participation in the processes of human development initiatives in rural India. This book analyses contemporary perspectives and the present scenario of human development; prospects and challenges in human development initiatives and people's participation in human development initiatives in rural India, related to education, employment, health, livelihood, nutrition, and grassroots governance.
Strategies for Human Development and People's Participation will be of immense interest to researchers, bureaucrats, policy makers, planners, practitioners, academia, and those interested in rural development and public policy.
