Attitudes and Behaviour in Participatory Development: Case of Ambalayagama Farmer Organisation

The report shows how NDF's approaches changed after being introduced to PRA methods, although NDF had been supposedly practising a participatory approach since the inception of the programme with an emphasis on providing technical support to villages and strengthening organisational capacities of farmers' organisations.
