Local governance and community action : how poor and marginalized people can achieve change

Abstract: Case studies from Nepal, Malawi, Kenya, Viet Nam and Tanzania show how local governance dynamics are central to the process of change that enable people to claim their rights. A thorough analysis of local power relations can inform approaches to increase the probability of bringing about change.
