This document provides information on scenarios, including definitions, purposes, objectives, and procedures for creating scenarios. Scenarios are stories or narratives that portray possible futures given key trends and events. They help consider complexity and challenge assumptions. Procedures for creating scenarios involve developing a framework, forecasting technologies, plotting a timeline of events, and writing the scenario from different perspectives. Scenarios are useful for strategic planning and policy development. The document also provides a case study scenario on employment assurance in India through 2022 in both optimistic and pessimistic versions.
1) MGNREGA was established in 2006 to provide a minimum 100 days of guaranteed employment per year to rural households in India.
2) It aims to strengthen natural resource management through works related to water conservation and development while providing employment and dignified wages.
3) The Act has placed an obligation on states to provide employment within 15 days of application and unemployment allowances if work is not provided. It has strengthened rural development and empowered vulnerable groups.
This document summarizes a project to develop a website for managing employment under MNREGA (the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act). The website would allow two types of users - BDOs and Gram Panchayat Members - to register users, create and manage projects, and assign employees to projects. It provides an E-R diagram of the database structure and screenshots of sample pages. The project aims to store all employee and project details in a database for easy access online by BDOs and panchayat members to check or update data as needed. While not perfect, it represents an initial effort to digitize MNREGA employment management.
The document discusses the 10 year anniversary of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) in India. Some key points:
- MGNREGA guarantees 100 days of employment per year to rural households. It has generated nearly 20 billion work days and helped reduce rural distress.
- Over the past 10 years, India has spent over $31 billion on the program. It has largely succeeded in creating employment opportunities and increasing rural incomes.
- While MGNREGA has improved rural livelihoods, some issues remain like delays in wage payments, incomplete projects, and possible reduction in farm labor availability. Strengthening implementation and ensuring quality asset creation are important ongoing priorities.

The document outlines a team of 5 students and their proposed solution to address India's growing unemployment problem. Their solution involves three main programs: Advanced Mass Education to provide practical skills training to youth starting at age 12; an "Each One Teach Two" program creating an educational network; and a Global Nutshell program to oversee these initiatives across India. The team believes their holistic approach that empowers students to teach each other will help address the root causes of unemployment more effectively than existing solutions. They request government support through funding and policy changes to help implement their plan.
UNDP Sub-Regional Facility (SRF) organized a workshop for UNCT in Jordan on Resilience-Based Development Approach (RBDA) in June 2014, with the purpose of introducing RBDA that contributes to long-term development with an eye on potential threatening shocks and crises, current and future and discuss how to operationalize it in the context of Jordan to improve UNCT’s responses collectively.
With attendance of various UN agencies from both humanitarian and development fields, the workshop started with the presentation to understand and share the concept of RBDA and its guiding principles, followed by introduction of examples of operationalizing RBD. Several exercises were conducted to demonstrate possible responses using RBDA using Gender-Based Violence, and to analyze planned activities under National Response Plan against RBDA. And come up with outcomes these activities would bring and how it can be scaled up in the future, in ‘cope/ recover/sustain and transform’ categories.
At the heart of the RBDA is that we do not just respond to humanitarian crises with an eye to the long term, but we also pursue long-term development with an eye of potential threatening shocks and crises, current and future. It is suitable to respond to protracted Syrian crisis and for host countries in particular, and now there is a strong and urgent need for UNCT to ensure bridging between humanitarian and development effort in a holistic and collective. In the workshop, agencies shared their responses that applies RBDA, difficulties they found in implementation and different tools to measure vulnerabilities and resilience. It was agreed among participants that ‘resilience’ building cannot be done by single agency or single project and that we need to bring about innovative partnerships. UNDP SRF will be taking lead in gathering existing tools, analyze and create collective tool for UNCT, and in coordinating such workshops at country level and regional level and create new knowledge.
This document discusses the choice of techniques for development projects in developing countries. It examines labor intensive versus capital intensive techniques and argues that a combination of both is needed. Labor intensive techniques are recommended for agriculture and consumer goods to maximize employment while capital intensive techniques are best for heavy industry and infrastructure to maximize growth. The document also discusses approaches to choosing techniques, including using abandoned equipment from advanced countries and developing intermediate technologies. The conclusion is that the optimal choice depends on maximizing total output given available resources and their proportions.

2. What are scenarios? Scenarios are stories or narratives that portray what might happen, why it might happen, and with what consequences Scenarios can be very powerful tools to contemplate the range of possible futures that could develop from the influence of key drivers, events and issues.
3. Definitions “a tool for ordering one’s perceptions about alternative future environments in which one’s decisions might be played out” (Schwartz, 1996).
4. Why use scenarios? Offer a non-linear and dynamic way of thinking Ability to deal with complexity, to consider multiple variables simultaneously, and with ‘different interpretation’ over time Counteracts the historical bias of quantitative forecasting approaches Challenge assumptions
5. Why use scenarios? (II) “Scenario thinking, by setting discussions in a time frame beyond their current assignment and beyond facts and forecasts, allows for a discussion with less defensive behaviour and a more shared sense of purpose” (Ringland, 2002)
6. Objectives and main uses Development of strategy and policy – organisational Heuristic device – ‘re-perceiving’ – in organisational change Stimulate critical thinking, challenge assumptions – within organisations, the general population
7. Purpose of scenario To display the interactions among several trends and events to provide a holistic picture of the future To check the internal consistency and set of forecasts on which they need are based To depict a future situation in a way readily understandable by the non specialist in the subject area
8. Procedure for creating a scenarios(1) Develop a framework for the scenario Forecast the technology(technologies) to be considered(technology developments) Plot the scenario(dates) Write the scenario
9. Develop a framework Each sector of environment -trend -change -technology -critical decision -who will decide
10. Forecast the technology Deployment -when ? -what scale? -how rapid adoption? -what impacts from tech? -critical decision on tech -who are decisionmakers?
11. Plot the scenario Each scenario=sequence of events & decisions Event=lead to key decision
12. Writing scenarios -approaches Looking backward-past =story and problem, future +solution=essay Viewpoint character=someone see or taking part God’s eye view=more the one see Diary=extract personnel letter
13. Procedure(2) Step 1:uncovering the decision Step 2:information-hunting and gathering Step 3:identifying the driving forces of a scenario Step 4:uncover the predetermined elements Step 5:identify the critical uncertainties Step 6:composing scenarios Step 7:Analysis of implications of the decisions according to scenarios Step 8:Selection of leading indicators and signposts
14. Major procedure building scenarios Analysing the past & present Identify the trends and driving forces Extract the trends which can extend into the future Set 3 or 4 appropriate scenarios (optimistic, pessimistic) make scenarios plausible by using the trends
15. How many scenarios? “Scenarios are not conceived of one at a time. You develop a range of two or three possible futures, allowing you to address an array of possibilities and rehearse your responses to each of them. At the same time, more than four scenarios tend to be too complex: you cannot keep track of their ramifications in your mind” (Schwartz)
