Community Development in Sub-Saharan Africa

About this book

Community Development in Sub-Saharan Africa explores the dynamics of community development thinking, processes, and approaches in contemporary sub-Saharan Africa. This edited collection prioritises how localised community processes foster transformation in resource-poor communities. The book emphasises examples of community resilience and recovery using locally informed approaches that respect local cultures and ways of being. The book further highlights the formative, yet understudied role of community development practice in sub-Saharan Africa, focusing on how local actions are critical in reducing poverty, enhancing local innovations and sustainability, diversifying livelihoods, and strengthening the architecture for transformative futures. The primary audience is scholars and students with interests in community development, history of development, international development, African Studies, and development theorising, as well as community development policymakers and practitioners.
