Abstract
This note is part of a series that
examines the factors that facilitate the scaling up of
Community Driven Development (CDD) programs. The note
highlights the experience of CARE Zambia's Program of
Support for Poverty Elimination and Community Transformation
(PROSPECT) initiative, which applies a community based
approach to reduce poverty in peri-urban areas of Lusaka,
and discusses the importance of linking CDD with structures,
and processes outside community boundaries, to ensure that
they are able to scale up in more dynamic and sustainable
ways than simple replication. It also examines the
difficulties of doing so in the face of opposition by
entrenched political interests.
