There has been an increasing awareness that previous undertakings labelled as supplyside, free market, export-based approaches and the like have altered and weakened local and regional economies (Blakely, 1994). https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/13732/ Tue, 31 Dec 1996 00:00:01 GMT <div>Calvo Barrantes, Andres</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/13731/ Fri, 29 Dec 2000 00:00:01 GMT <div>Gahid, Irene B.</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/8245/ Sun, 01 Dec 2002 00:00:01 GMT <div>Muhati, Elijah Agnew Mbwavi</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/75383/ Fri, 13 Dec 2002 00:00:01 GMT <div>Kibibi Maia Thomas</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/11301/ Sun, 15 Dec 2002 00:00:01 GMT <div>Dame, Hailu Tafa</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/8284/ Mon, 01 Dec 2003 00:00:01 GMT <div>Shrestha, Shyamal Krishna</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/11303/ Mon, 15 Dec 2003 00:00:01 GMT <div>Suarez Perez, Irene</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/9417/ Wed, 01 Dec 2004 00:00:01 GMT <div>Alvarez,Marfa Jose Molina</div> Despite the fact that for over fifty years the global agenda has set development as one of its top priorities, the less developed regions seem to face a discouraging situation of extreme poverty, increasing inequality and lack of opportunities. The world today is one where globalization has become the cornerstone on which development stands in the 21 st century. Never before has the world seemed so small and reachable but yet so unequal. In this new global era where technological change is constantly challenging us, many of the less developed countries have come to realize that without a major transformation process they stand little chance in playing in the so-called global game. https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/8230/ Wed, 01 Dec 2004 00:00:01 GMT <div>Adigue, Allinnettes G.</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/13259/ Wed, 15 Dec 2004 00:00:01 GMT <div>Mukuye, Ronard</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/13258/ Wed, 15 Dec 2004 00:00:01 GMT <div>Camargo Ramalho, Priscila</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/9416/ Thu, 01 Dec 2005 00:00:01 GMT <div>Mpehongwa, Gasper Nzinyangwa</div> This report presents findings and analysis of a study undertaken in lringa district council of southern highlands in Tanzania. The purpose of the study was to assess the role of local authority in promotion and enhancing competitiveness of non-farm enterprises. Using documentary review, interviews and direct field observation, the study revisited selected programs that are presumed to have direct or indirect effect on competitiveness of non-farm enterprises in the district. It argues that local government intervention alone is not enough to stimulate non-farm enterprises; rather a multi-actor approach is required to produce the desired impact The introductory chapter discusses the contribution of non-farm enterprises in the Tanzanian economy. It expounds on the relevance of the study into both policy and academics. Then, research problem, questions, and methodology are discussed to set boundaries and the scope of the study. https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/9721/ Thu, 01 Dec 2005 00:00:01 GMT <div>Elora, Sanjida Shams her</div> This paper brings out the effects of eco park projects on the lives of tribal people and its sustainability with the help of some indicators such as the tribal people's access to their traditional or alternative livelihood; access to participation in decision making process; access to forest lands and resource use; and access to cultural and religious practices. Secondary materials have been used to analyse the available information. Other than this, a brief interview was employed with some related people to have hands on idea on the eco park issue from both the government and the people's perspective. https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/8248/ Thu, 01 Dec 2005 00:00:01 GMT <div>Rachmawati, Tutik</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/8243/ Thu, 01 Dec 2005 00:00:01 GMT <div>Lubell, Anne</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/11328/ Thu, 15 Dec 2005 00:00:01 GMT <div>Lubell, Anne</div> https://thesis.eur.nl/pub/51085/ Fri, 16 Dec 2005 00:00:01 GMT <div>Elora, Sanjida Shamsher</div> This paper brings out the effects of eco park projects on the lives of tribal people and its sustainability with the help of some indicators such as the tribal people's access to their traditional or alternative livelihood; access to participation in decision making process; access to forest lands and resource use; and access to cultural and religious practices. Secondary materials have been used to analyse the available information. Other than this, a brief interview was employed with some related people to have hands on idea on the eco park issue from both the government and the people's perspective. The analysis shows that the tribal people are not accepting the eco park projects with its current implementation process, which is only to promote eco tourism as its core agenda. They are considering it as a tool to devastate the nature and disturb their traditional lifestyle. On the other hand, Government has a different view regarding the issue whereby it assures the alternative livelihood strategies for the tribal people as well as respect for their traditional cultural and religious practices and moreover, has promised to have no negative impact on the environment. This study concludes that the eco park project can bring sustainable forest management only if the authority involves tribal people in the planning and management stage in true sense and also respect their norms and values. Other than this, the government should also give them alternative livelihood strategies for survival and facilitate them to compete in the newly created job market in this sector. ii
