It is both practical and well justified on the basis of the literature. The approach and survey instruments developed to measure empowerment are innovative and very useful. Developing an approach to empirically measure empowerment, and to track empowerment indicators over time in a way that is operationally feasible and consistent with World Bank standards is certainly an outstanding achievement.""Reginer Birner, Senior Research FellowDirections in development (Washington, D.C.)Community developmentSocial planningEconomic developmentCitizen participationElectronic books.Community development.Social planning.Economic developmentCitizen participation.307.1/4Alsop Ruth907007Bertelsen Mette Frost1975-907008Holland Jeremy1966-696392MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450199203321Empowerment in practice2028861UNINA
