| Name | SEAGA Intermediate Level Handbook |
| Description | Norem, R. 2001. SEAGA Intermediate Level Handbook. Socioeconomic and Gender Analysis Programme, FAO.The purpose of the Intermediate Handbook is to support participatory development for those who play an intermediary role between government policy makers and individuals and households at the community level. Intermediaries can be governmental or United Nations development institutions, organisations, or non-governmental organisations (NGOs), which contain groups of people, bound by some common purpose. In some instances those who play an intermediary role may be part of a centralised government structure, but in other instances, they are part of a decentralised governmental structure, NGOs or belong to community-based organisation. Decentralisation of government responsibilities and resources is taking place in many parts of the world. The changing roles of various organisations and their ability to adapt to decentralisation are key to decentralisation work. Intermediaries are often responsible for linking communities to the policy-making process. They are therefore in a position to help develop processes that involve local people in making decisions about the kind of change they want in their communities and the allocation of resources to achieve that change. In essence, the SEAGA Intermediate Handbook is written for development planners in all types of public and private sector groups, from government ministries to community groups. It is also designed to assist small and medium size organisations such as community based groups. Some small government offices or ministries may also find the ideas useful. The analysis concepts and tools included in the Handbook focus on planning and implementing participatory change that takes into account differences in gender roles and relationships and other socio-economic characteristics of various stakeholder groups. The Handbook encourages practical application of the SEAGA concepts and tools. This Handbook includes concepts, guidelines, tools, and examples from organisational planning and process models that are widely used around the world. Other tools have been developed specifically for the SEAGA Handbook. |
