"Theatre can reveal to development workers both villagers' problems and their capacity to analyse such programs." Also: "the main obstacle to development is not ignorance or apathy but structural limits on villagers' access to resources, information and power."
This study "finds that, historically, telecommunications rollout has had a positive and significant impact on increasing inequality and little impact on quality of life variables." Authors also find evidence that the Internet will also be a force for income divergence.

AGE 85925422, Data from 358 households in 12 sites representative of climatic, geographical, and agricultural variations in the eastern communal areas of Botswana show that differences in the agricultural practices and extension contact of male- and female-headed households largely disappear when economic stratum is controlled. Female-headed households are shown not to be a homogeneous group. There appear to be greater similarities between farmers within the same economic stratum regardless of gender than between farmers of the same gender in different strata.

INTERPAKS; see also C00586, C00587, London: Overseas Development Institute, Agricultural Administration Unit, 1979. (Discussion paper 1). 34 p., Describes past and present practical organization of Botswana's agricultural extension service. Shows the new structure comprised of three main departments: veterinary, agricultural research, and agricultural field services. The most essential change was that all farmer contact, extension and schemes to help farmers were to be organized by of through offices with territorial responsibility. Describes the detailed records that will be kept, the monthly program of the agricultural demonstrators and their report on achievement, the procedure for preparation of annual plans, and the evaluation of the system. Botswana's system differs from the T&V system in its view of the working role and function of the demonstrator himself.
