Target groups
ITECO addresses a broad audience interested in questions of development at home and abroad, social action, North-South relations and solidarity.
To achieve maximum impact, ITECO gives priority to training intermediaries, trainers and moderators including :
Social-cultural facilitators, moderators of social movements and lifelong training, migrant organizations, youth organizations.
Workers in the social sector : social workers, teachers, staff in psycho-medico-social centers, family-planning centers.
Trainers and educational movements.
Facilitators in the sectors of cooperation, sustainable development and international solidarity (development education, peace education, environmental education, gender education and antiracism).
Method
The basic educational system consists of four integrated dimensions that enable the participants to better understand where they stand in society, how society functions, how they can act and who could be the eventual partners.
ITECO prefers to question society and to ask what can change it, than to offer simple answers for successful development.
An important part of our educational action questions the mechanisms of power and the way these are perpetuated or challenged by individuals, social groups, organizations, and cultural models. We emphasize the importance of analyzing the ways that choices, behaviors and discourses are conditioned, and the socially explainable constraints underlying spontaneous attitudes. This reveals the steps that can lead to freer, more conscious choices geared to action.

The area development approach focuses on two points:
1.Development of optimum infrastructural facilities; and
2.Spatial and functional integration for the development of an area.
The purpose of these approaches was alleviation of rural poverty. In the last four decades, several area-based development programmes—Rigorous Agricultural District Programme, Drought Prone Area Programme, Command Area Development Programme, and Desert Development Programme—were prepared and implemented. Since agriculture plays a very significant role in the economy and in social life of the people, the area development strategy was measured essential. The Drought Prone Area Development Programme, was, for instance, envisaged in the seventh five year plan to augment productivity from dry land and arid areas. The feature of such an area is maximum concentration of the poor and the unemployed. Hence, their development called for the use of appropriate technology of development. The Drought Prone Area Development-Programme incorporated six major sectoral areas including fisheries, irrigation, forestry, horticulture.
The third approach to development is Target-Group Approach or
Beneficiary Oriented Approach. This may also be termed as people-centered approach. It was realized that economic growth model of development which laid emphasis on trickle down theory (which whispered that fruits of development will automatically reach to the people in rural areas. That is, the fruits will trickle down through themselves) was unsuitable to solve the troubles of poverty and unemployment. Hence, it was measured necessary to undertake such programmes and projects which deliberately and in a determined manner aimed at reduction in poverty and lead to distributive justice. The main principle came to be economic growth with social justice.
