Development is a key that opens the door to progress. Development theories are the conceptual channels for development. This book deals with the concepts of development theories leading to community, rural and gender development and provides practical knowledge in them. In most of the developing countries of the world, especially in Africa and Asia, more than half of the people are farmers and more than 70% of them are poor. This book acts as a guide to endow with knowledge of development activities and enhance the status of the poor people. This book bestows students in all fields of social and natural science, generally and specifically, to learn and understand development concepts. These aspects are brought out in a lucid manner. Selected relevant case studies used to help students comprehend the real life situations are incorporated; of which CLA is a real life state of affairs in Rwanda.
