People can make contributions to the planning process at the implementation stage only if they are presented with a well-articulated and feasible framework of approaches, objectives, alternatives, etc.
The Importance of Participation
The planning system is meant to reflect the general wishes of the local community and there is a need on the local authority to consult widely during the formulation of a Zonal / Master Plan and in the operation of the development.
Public’s participation or involvement can be better understood in four senses:
(i)Participation in decision-making ;
(ii)Participation in implementation of development programme and projects;
(iii)Participation in monitoring and evaluation of development programmes and projects
(iv)Participation in sharing the benefits of development
The pre-requisites for people’s participation are a democratic system which will allow the people, even the smallest and the poorest, to participate directly as well as through genuine representatives in the decision-making process at all levels.
