This volume of case studies has been put together with the intention of promoting mutual learning among those concerned with advancing civil society solutions for development and poverty reduction. Nine case studies, representing an equal number of projects and countries, have been selected from among a host of instructive and
interesting experiences examined by the editors. Each case study leads the reader step-by-step through the various stages of its particular learning experience, elucidating how particular problems were satisfactorily resolved in a specific situation, and providing insights about how similar processes and programs can be supported in other countries and contexts.
All of these cases report relatively recent experiences, mostly gained during a period in
the 1990s. The brief analytical framework presented helps to organize these individual experiences and insights.
