Editor's Notes
- #5 Rural area is sparsely populated because many people leaves rural areas and settles in the urban areas for more facilities. These societies have homogeneity. Rural areas have a very slow rate of change because of lack of education and modern technology.
- #7 Sectoral Approach This approach advocates compartmentalization of development in different sectors as if these are watertight compartments and have nothing to do with each other, Area Development Approach, This approach contemplates that development of an area depends not only on the development of an adequate infrastructure network but also the way factors of the local economy are activated around the production infrastructure Integrated Development Approach, the integrated development approach has been developed because the area development approach by and large failed to address the question of inequalities in the distribution of employment, incomes and assets. Growth Center Approach, Based on the principle of “equal accessibility”, this approach can bring all these facilities, services and local administration within easy reach of the population. Community-driven development (CDD) or Approach. It is derived from community-based development (CBD),which is a developmental initiative that provides control of the development process, resources and decision making authority directly to community groups.
- #8 The basic objectives of Rural Development Programmes have been alleviation of poverty and unemployment through creation of basic social and economic infrastructure, provision of training to rural unemployed youth and providing employment to marginal Farmers/Laborers to discourage seasonal and permanent migration to urban areas.
- #9 Basic Elements of Rural Development 1. Basic Necessities in Life – food, shelter, clothes, basic literacy, primary health care and security of life and property. 2. Self respect – Every person seeks some sort of self respect, dignity, or honor.
- #10 The major problems that have been identified are, poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, homelessness and crime and violence. Poverty is the condition, when the individuals experience scarcity of resources that are necessary to sustain their living conditions appropriately. Illiteracy is when individuals do not possess the basic literacy skills of reading, writing and numeracy. Unemployment is, when individuals do not have any job or work. Homelessness is a condition, when they do not have proper housing accommodation. In rural communities, it is unfortunate that women and girls are the ones, who in most cases experience criminal and violent acts. These include, verbal abuse, physical abuse, sexual harassment, neglect and discriminatory treatment.
- #14 Sustenance: Sustenance is the ability to meet basic needs of people. All people have certain basic needs without which life would be impossible. These basic needs include food, shelter, health, and protection. Self-esteem: Sense of worth and self-respect and feeling of not being marginalized are extremely important for individual’s well being. All peoples and societies seek some form of self-esteem (identity, dignity, respect, honor etc.). Human freedom, the ability to choose, is essential for the well being of individuals.Freedom involves an expanded range of choices for societies: economic and political.
