Re-imagining development by (re)claiming feminist visions of development alternatives
Over the past 30 years, new frameworks and procedures have influenced the language of development, as well as the understanding of what ‘good development’ and success look like. While feminist concepts have been incorporated into some of these approaches, the core challenges of patriarchy, race, as well as class and gender inequalities are not centre stage. Approaches that address development as a complex political project have receded (though no…
The Value for Money agenda
Value for Money (VfM) is increasingly a funding requirement for UK aid. This article builds on research around different VfM approaches to highlight the challenges faced by the sector in applying VfM for organisational evaluation and learning. It argues that the focus must be on: what is really changing for people, not only on how resources are used; involving communities in programmes and enabling them to play a key role in the VfM judgements; u…

On the road to Accra, via Canada and County Kerry
A workshop was convened in February 2008 to identify the role of civil-society organisations (CSOs) in the post-Paris Declaration aid agenda, prior to the High-Level Forum to review progress towards achieving aid harmonisation that was held in Accra in September 2008. The article presents concerns about the focus on the mechanisms rather than the purpose or impacts of aid; the ways in which donors force through their own agendas; and the continui…

Re-thinking gender mainstreaming in African NGOs and communities
This article examines research on gender mainstreaming initiatives, undertaken by a sample of localNGOs in four African countries. This research explores where resistance to gender equality comes fromin some African organisations and communities. It shows that for gender mainstreaming processes tobe effective they need to address the complex realities of people, and be sensitive to the values ofcommunities in their implementation. The more succes…
Trends in UK NGOs
This paper reports on some of the generic findings arising from research being undertaken in the UK, South Africa, and Uganda into the ways in which the management tools currently promoted by official donors are passed down the aid chain, through UK NGOs, to civil society organisations in the South. The increasing competition for donor funds is both squeezing out the smaller NGOs, and also setting an increasingly standardised approach, with the r…
Institutionalizing gender in UK NGOs
Drawing on recent research, it has been explored how far and in what ways UK NGOs have tried to incorporate gender into the policies and procedures of their international development work, and how far a formal recognition of gender issues is shaping the way each organization functions. The strengths and weaknesses of different strategies are assessed (such as specialist staff or units, formal gender policies, gender training, equal opportunity re…
New development agendas
This article reports on research carried out on changes in the operational management of a broad sample of British NGOs. Despite the diversity of NGOs it finds surprising convergence towards the application of certain managerial concepts and tools. Three of these ‐ Strategic Planning, Logical Framework Analysis and Evaluation are considered in detail and the questions of why they are being used and for what purpose posed. The evidence is overwhel…
Saharawi women
A conference by 'One World Action' that focused on Saharawi women refugees, has highlighted how women worldwide cope with displacement. The true picture is starkly different to that portrayed by Western media and understood by Western aid agencies. Women refugees are not 'victims' but empower themselves by running the camps and assuming traditional male roles as leaders and managers. The women know that their rights are being denied and are deman…
Refugee women
Development and implementation of policies concerning refugees must involve the refugees. This is particularly true of women refugees, who were the subject of 1990 guidelines drawn up by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees. These guidelines state that program effectiveness depends upon consulting with women and their dependents and stress the need to protect the legal rights of women and to assure their access to special programs. In order to i…

Here for Good
Western Europes population increased by 10 million people between 1950 and 1975 largely due to labor migration from less developed countries. This development stage requiring mass labor migration ended in the early 1970s beginning a period of economic stagnation and social crisis. Many of the migrants became settlers and sent for their dependents to join them forming new ethnic minorities in the receiving countries. This book examines migration p…

Fertility and replacement
The observed joint distribution of births and child deaths for a cohort of women at a given point in time depends on the number of children that would have been born had the family experienced no deaths, the number of child deaths experienced, and the proportion of these deaths that are replaced by a subsequent birth. In this paper we estimate the parameters of the assumed distributions of these three events using a minimum distance estimation mo…

RÉSUMÉLa production alimentaire du Nigeria est insuffisante et ses importations alimentaires sont en hausse sans pour autant épargner au pays les pénuries chroniques. Le Troisième Plan du Développement (1975–1980) proposait plusieurs stratégies pour combattre la crise; elles sont poursuivies actuellement par le gouvernement civil. Au coeur de la politique agricole se trouve la conviction que la productivité augmentera grˆce à l'introduction de la…
Agricultural projects and land in Northern Nigeria
A great proportion of government budgets and foreign exchange is going into two kinds of projects supposed to benefit ordinary peasant farmers. In practice they do anything but. Many are resettled and in the process lose some of their acreage, or the use of it for a couple of seasons, or the most fertile portions, or their trees, their houses, or access to water or firewood. Others downstream of the schemes have lost the annual flooding that made…
