Abstract:

Worldwide, poverty remains to be an obstacle to achieve sustainable development and improve the well-being of people. Microfinance has become a popular tool for poverty alleviation and it can now be found in poor countries across the world. Microfinance is based on the principle that poor people can initiate their own development out of poverty, given they have the starting capital to do so. The capital can be invested in income-generating activities and it is assumed that this will lead to a higher income and additional positive effects, like an increase in well-being, will follow.

Despite remarkable economic achievement during the New Order period (1966-1998), poverty has persisted and the benefits of development have been unequally distributed. Social welfare — the system of social security to protect the well-being of the weaker members of society has received little attention in Indonesia, both from the state and from the scholarly community.

ABSTRACT Since independence in 1966, centralized development planning has ensured the availability of basic facilities and services in rural areas of Botswana but has also contributed to over-reliance on the government for the majority of rural people. The consequence of this centralized and accelerated approach to rural development has been the exclusion of rural communities from planning and implementation of facilities meant to benefit them. The international debate on sustainable rural development led the Botswana government to re-think its rural development policy with a view to establi

Farmers’ participation bridges the gap between variety development and dissemination and provides an opportunity for farmers to select varieties they prefer. The breeders on the others hand learn more about the farmers’ preferences and the environment in which the new varieties will be grown. However, the advantages of participatory breeding can best be realized when farmers’ indigenous technical knowledge (ITK) and experience complement the breeder’s scientific knowledge and skills.

As a result, this study set out to evaluate the production potential of organic agriculture among three smallholder farmer groups. Production questions were
