National Workshop on Small-Scale Watershed Development

This is a brief summary of the outcome of a workshop held to share Indian experiences with watershed development. While it was agreed that people's participation is necessary for success, views differed on what form people's participation should take in project design and implementation. The roles of various organisations are discussed, as is the need for equity project impact. Factors affecting replicability are mentioned. Better technologies, more training materials and more trained manpower are considered necessary.
