Development Practice in Eastern and Southern Africa
Lived Experiences from the Trenches /[electronic resource] :edited by Tshilidzi Madzivhandila, Sepo Hachigonta, Joseph Francis, Joseph Kamuzhanje, Oluwatoyin Dare Kolawole, Shirley DeWolf. - 1st ed. 2022. - XV, 174 p. 1 illus.online resource.
Chapter 1 - Introduction -- Chapter 2- Field Research And Data Collection -- Chapter 3 - Building Capacity For Developmental Programmes -- Chapter 4 - Culture, Gender Dynamics And Science Communication -- Chapter 5- Stories From Rural Development Programmes -- Chapter 6 - Synthesis -- Chapter 7 - Conclusion.
This book is a rare collection of reflective and reflexive stories that reveal how seasoned academics, agents of grassroots social change, leaders and journalists transformed and shaped the development landscape in eastern and southern Africa. Whereas practical experiences are crucial assets and resources for shaping the academic environment and development practice landscape, most of the existing literature recommended as key learning materials in tertiary institutions is rarely in synch with the practical realities of development practice. The shared individual lived experiences from academic endeavours and fieldwork provide hands-on tools for students and emerging practitioners who might be involved in or are currently facilitating development work. The thrust of the book, therefore, is to demystify the day-to-day experiences of development practitioners while contributing to learning pathways or strategies for achieving viable solutions to the myriad of challenges, which grassroots communities face. The relevance of the book as a crucial resource for students pursuing development-oriented degree programmes in colleges and universities is obvious. Without any doubt, the compilation will be handy in the implementation of diverse development-oriented transformation agenda at academic, programming and policy levels.
