The participatory development approach

Participatory development this kind of process is used by community members and stakeholders to communicate. It also helps the societies to build their own capacity and self-reliance. In South Africa UNESCO's Finding a Voice Project employs ICT for development  initiatives, local content creation and distribution contributes to the formation of local information networks. Beside every good thing it does the participatory development has revealed certain difficulties, such as a lack of capacity and the use of ineffective technology.
