| Study Title |
Democratic Decentralisation and Participatory Natural Resources Management |
| Study Region |
Amangal Mandal, Mahabubnagar District of Andhra Pradesh. |
| Problem Statement/Central Research Question |
The nature of relationship between "transparent, interactive and democratic" functioning of Gram Panchayats on the one hand, and "participatory" development institutes like Watershed Committees, Vana Samrakshana Samitis and Water Users Associations. |
| Relevance of the question/hypothesis |
Generally, the discussions on local self-governance or democratic decentralization and participatory natural resources management do not intersect and take place in somewhat independent domains. It is argued that it is essential to discuss democratic decentralization and participatory natural resources management together because one cannot be understood or achieved without the understanding or achievement of the other.
|
| How the question/hypothesis is researched |
Participant Observation; Informal in depth interviews, group discussions.
