Summary: Most people in developing countries live in rural areas and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. In these areas unemployment is often high and there is a need for governments to implement programmes to create work. This book discusses the problems of rural unemployment in developing countries. It puts forward strategies for action and is intended as applied development manual to assist those organising rural public works programmes. It draws on the experiences of over twenty countries which have implemented such programmes and it draws out the lessons for developing countries in all continents. It discusses policy making, organisational features of programmes, the need to be realistic in establishing the potential and limitations of programmes and explores the problems of assessing performance.
