Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - General, grade: 3.0, University of Lusaka, language: English, abstract: The following work examines the effects of community participation as a determinant of project sustainability using the example of Zambia. Sustainability forms the basis for any developmental activity, without it all the efforts engaged in the project become a share waste of time and resources. It is a mystical theory to believe that affected communities are shocked and helpless to take responsibilities for their own survival and that their only hope is dependent upon external support. On the contrary, communities do have power and strength to manage and sustain their own challenges in any given case as long as they are involved in such a move that is aimed at curbing the community problems. That said community participatory approach is the most important slant towards enabling communities to help themselves and sustain efforts made by multiple developmental agencies. This study was aimed at investigating Community participation and its attributes as a determinant of project sustainability beyond donor support. The study was triggered by the eminent failure rates of many projects implemented in that collapse immediately the donor pulls out their support. The researcher applied and elucidated on different philosophical standpoints within this thesis in terms of ontology, epistemology and axiology were objectivism and positivism underpinnings were established. The researcher then used explanatory study design on the DFID Community Led Total Sanitation supported project in 29 districts of Zambia. Stratified and random sampling techniques were used to select a sample of 128 respondents. Furthermore, the researcher used questionnaires to collect data and it was analyzed quantitatively using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software and results were summarized and presented using table and charts.

In recent years a great deal of the effort in addressing environmental problems has focused on the interaction between citizens and the various institutions of society, often with regard to encouraging the public to participate in the resolution of the problems. Often it is argued that much of this effort of citizen involvement needs to be focused at the local level; in Australia this frequently means at the local government level. In order to help with the task of resolving the global issues through acting locally, the aim of this thesis is to answer the following research question: How effectively does a local government body interact with its community in decision-making processes aimed at achieving a more sustainable society? Liverpool City Council and the community of the Liverpool area that form part of the western region of Sydney, New South Wales, provide the setting for this research. While the discipline of public participation has developed scores of tools for Councils to consider, so far these efforts have largely been limited to change in either the institution or the community as separate entities. In this thesis, the interaction between the two is examined together with the changes in notions of power which come with a deeper involvement of citizens in decision-making for the governance of local councils. Since the thesis topic is complex, the study develops within a multi-faceted and multi-layered framework. In answering the research question, a transdisciplinary process drew relevant ideas from anthropology, the natural sciences, history, theology, sociology and politics. A trans-methodology included elements from Ethnography, Action Research, Grounded Theory and Case Study approaches to research. In order to gather triangulated data sets, a multi-method technique used participant observation, interview and document analysis. The data gathered from fieldwork and presented in narrative style, was subject to a thematic analysis that offers insights into the inter-personal and institutional interactions in a council/community participatory process. These include: Processes in public participation programs need to reflect the desired outcome, that is, practising what is preached; Passion and courage of the project team are important for a change program; Passionate teams still need to reflect on their own biases; Disciplinary and professional silos need to be permeable and accessible; A political culture of passivity requires change in community and Council; Sharing in decision-making allows for shared ownership and greater loyalty to the project; Shared teacher/learner roles between community and council are needed; Communication with and leadership from the powerful in council is needed; Legislative changes can provide assistance for overcoming problems in public participation programs; and Sustainability as a project outcome needs a concerted and continuing emphasis throughout the project. Three models have been developed for better understanding Council/community collaboration. The first model is the Liverpool Model, in two versions. Version A is of the situation at Liverpool and Version B is a generic model of Council/community interaction derived from the first. Subsequently two further models were developed for the two contributing elements of the Liverpool Model, Council and the community, respectively. The Council action model, Integrated Strategic Planning for Liverpool Council, derives from the Council's corporate development component of the research project. The community action model, A Community Engagement Strategy focuses on the community development and governance engagement aspect of the project. These models serve as lessons not only for the Council and people of Liverpool, but may well be of use to other institutions, and the wider community.
