Humanitarian Development and Innovation Seminar:
Sustainable Asset-based Community Development in Rural Honduras
Monday, October 22, 9:00 a.m., E100 Scott Lab
|
International development has long been carried out as a top-down process, implemented from the outside in. These externally-imposed paternalistic practices can cause serious long-term problems in small communities. Sustained interventions of this nature slowly disempower populations and create dependence upon outside resources and guidance. In Honduras, a small NGO is working to reverse this effect. Heart to Honduras (HTH) uses asset-based community development theory to empower local communities to go beyond basic participation to become be the protagonists of their own development story.
