Answer:
here ya go
Explanation:
For several years prior to the full start-up of the Indo-German Watershed
Development Programme (IGWDP), its architects were driven by one principal
concern: that participatory watershed development should be replicable over wide
areas. This stimulated the close engagement of stakeholders at international,
national, district and local levels, and the creation of confluences of interest (and
corresponding checks and balances) within and across these levels. It has also
generated a technically sound but participatory watershed planning methodology, a
coherent transition from capacity building to full-scale implementation within
watersheds, and a practical framework for field-level collaboration among NGOs,
community-based organisations and government departments. The Programme
currently covers 92,000 ha of private and other land in 20 districts in Maharashtra,
involving 50 NGOs working in 74 watersheds. It is set to expand within Maharashtra
as new NGOs register themselves some growing from village groups in successful
watersheds and to other States through a system of franchising
