The development of rural community determines the development of a country, especially for developing countries like Bangladesh where majority of the people live in the rural areas. There are quite remarkable rural development initiatives taken by both government and non government sector in Bangladesh. Comilla Model of Rural Development was amongst the remarkable initiatives that brought Green Revolution in Bangladesh and subsequently led to rural community development during 1960s. But still rural poverty has been a vital issue for development thinkers of the country. Community participation is considered as a vital tool for rural development. Therefore, in most of the development interventions in Bangladesh, participation of rural people for their self help is kept as a major component. On the other hand, Saemaul Undong, as a sustainable rural development model, has brought revolutionary change in the scenario of Korean Rural development. In both the models of rural development, community participation was seen prominent. The study intends to highlight the new innovations in the field of rural development and a plethora for the problems in community participation in Bangladesh. The study methods include analysis of both secondary and primary data. It was seen in this study that local government institution (Union Parishad) in Bangladesh could not ensure effective people’s participation and lack efficiency to foster develop- ment plans at the local level. Against this backdrop, the study high- lights the possible ways of effective rural people’s participation in com- munity development and shares the best practices of Saemaul Undong.
Abstract
The development of rural community determines the development of a country, especially for developing countries like Bangladesh where majority of the people live in the rural areas. There are quite remarkable rural development initiatives taken by both government and non government sector in Bangladesh. Comilla Model of Rural Development was amongst the remarkable initiatives that brought Green Revolution in Bangladesh and subsequently led to rural community development during 1960s. But still rural poverty has been a vital issue for development thinkers of the country. Community participation is considered as a vital tool for rural development. Therefore, in most of the development interventions in Bangladesh, participation of rural people for their self help is kept as a major component. On the other hand, Saemaul Undong, as a sustainable rural development model, has brought revolutionary change in the scenario of Korean Rural development. In both the models of rural development, community participation was seen prominent. The study intends to highlight the new innovations in the field of rural development and a plethora for the problems in community participation in Bangladesh. The study methods include analysis of both secondary and primary data. It was seen in this study that local government institution (Union Parishad) in Bangladesh could not ensure effective people’s participation and lack efficiency to foster develop- ment plans at the local level. Against this backdrop, the study high- lights the possible ways of effective rural people’s participation in com- munity development and shares the best practices of Saemaul Undong.
