Ground truthing: Have we got it right?
Is the cycle relevant in the North and the South? Can it apply to small and large cities and communities? Is it broad enough to encompass most frameworks? Can it be translated into different languages and cultural
contexts? Is it valuable: is it worthy of our efforts to refine and
develop a manual and support documents? Who else might value this work and finance it? How will you make use of it?
