Research and development can no longer be the

exclusive domain of scientists. To find sustainable
solutions to development problems, a wider range of
actors must be involved. It is crucial, for example, that
local stakeholders provide input to the process.
Participatory research and development (PR&D) offers
such an inclusive model.

This three-volume sourcebook provides easy access to

field-tested PR&D concepts and practices for
practitioners, researchers, and academic. As well, it
presents a comprehensive overview of PR&D and will
serve as a general reference for trainers, policymakers,
donors, and development professionals. The sourcebook
captures and examines PR&D experiences from over 30
countries, illustrating applications in sustainable crop and
animal production, forest and watershed management,
soil and water conservation, and postharvest and
utilization.

Volume 1 focuses on typologies and concepts,

approaches, participatory technology development, and
participatory natural resource management. Volume 2
examines capacity building, networking and
partnerships, and scaling up and institutionalization.
Volume 3 looks at technology development,
strengthening local organizations, and multistakeholder-
based natural resource management. Each volume
includes a glossary, a list of recommended publications,
contact addresses of contributors, and directories of Web
sites and e-groups. The three-volume set comes with a
CD-Rom containing the core articles from the three
books, along with 15 additional papers.
