Community planning: Scenarios

  • featured scenarios
  • suggestion

A range of scenarios covering some common development situations. Each illustrates one way in which methods can be combined in an overall strategy.

Use for inspiration, not as blueprints. It is important to stress that in each case, there are many other ways of achieving the same objective. Note also that the timescales shown may be over-optimistic in some contexts as they assume that securing permissions, raising finance and setting up organisational frameworks takes place fairly smoothly.
