Documentation had to fit into a common structureConcise summary Location and contact details of implementerDuration / periodAdvantages / disadvantages Pre-requisites for implementation elsewhereFeasibility of replication and sustainability Documents and illustrationsDate of entry / last revision
Some criteria had to be laid down for screeningDoes it seek to remedy a recurring underlying
problem ? Is it sustainableCan it be replicated ? Is it broadly in line with national policy ? Does it comply with existing legislation ? Is the initiative still relevant in current circumstances ?

Main TA team ceased to be involved on a day-to-day basis
Documentation delegated to relatively inexperienced persons who were not the ‘practitioners’ / facilitators of reforms

Mistake # 1: Assumption that reforms would happen or good practices would get replicated if documentation were available; documentation is a tool to be used by facilitators of change
Mistake # 2: Assumption that documentation of reforms / good practices can be delegated to people exogenous to reforms /replication process

Pre-conditions for success of community Pre-conditions for success of community development initiatives in general : development initiatives in general :
Lessons contained in the 9Lessons contained in the 9thth Plan Plan DocumentDocument
Pre-conditions for success of any development programme.
Derived from nearly 2400 evaluations The pre-conditions [para 5.26 to 5.40, Volume-I]
◦ in all success stories, people’s participation has been a critical factor.
◦ this (people’s participation), however, can not come about automatically; involvement of facilitators / animators is needed to remove the constraints and inertia of the people.
◦ development of the disadvantaged groups is not possible with focus on a single activity; without addressing the problem of illiteracy, ill-health, poverty and the forward and backward linkages of their primary activities simultaneously, the people could not be motivated to participate in the development process.

Suggestions for your consideration.... Suggestions for your consideration....
Huge number of schemes, all aimed at poverty reduction but no visible change:◦Lack of alignment between personal and
organizational incentives – need to change the compensation package for managers of social sector programmes – bring in two-part payment that allows people to earn good, clean money
Focus more on ‘producing’ facilitators of change than IT based resources; effective use of the latter is predicated on the former....
