- W2551292914 abstract "Institutional performance is thought to be a key determinant of economic success, however there is little evidence on how best to reform existing institutions. Foreign aid donors spend substantial resources on ―community driven development‖ programs that combine the provision of public goods with intensive long term facilitation designed to strengthen local institutions; make them more democratic and inclusive of marginalized social groups; and enhance the capacity of communities to engage in collective action. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of one such program in post-war Sierra Leone using a randomized methodology. Data collection combined rich survey instruments with a set of novel structured community activities designed to measure how real world collective action and participation changed over the four year program (2005-2009). We find positive impacts on the establishment of local development committees, local public goods provision, links between communities and local government officials, household economic welfare, and village-level market activity. However, we do not find any program impacts on community social norms, the role of women and youths in local affairs, more egalitarian decision making or the capacity for collective action beyond the immediate project sphere. Overall, these findings suggest that community driven development programs and related donor projects may leave communities materially better off but may be less effective in fundamentally transforming local institutions or power dynamics." @default.
