Their problem: Conventional planning methods often do not work. The solution: Involve all the key stakeholders in making the plan. The challenge: Devise a planning system that the principals and stakeholders can trust, and that is inclusive, balanced, and dynamic Facilitated participatory planning (or FPP) is a new way of planning for a world that is complex, competitive, and fast-changing; a world where managers, staff and other stakeholders must have their say and own the ideas for any plan to work. This book charts the evolution of FPP from pioneer concepts of awareness, empowerment, learning-by-doing, visualization, creative group processes, and incremental questions into a complete and up-to-date system of principles and techniques. It carries case studies that show how FPP has been used successfully where other planning methods have failed.

It presents the theories, tools, and strategies required to encourage and enable evidence-informed decision-making. This toolkit builds upon extensive research into the principles and skills of KT: its theory and literature, its evolution, strategies, and challenges. The book covers an array of crucial KTenablers - from context mapping to evaluative thinking - supported by practical examples, implementation guides, and references. Drawing from the experience of specialists in relevant disciplines around the world, The Knowledge Translation Toolkit aims to enhance the capacity and motivation of researchers to use KT and to use it well.

Authors: Belem, Gisèle; Mazalto, Marie; Sarrasin, Bruno; Akabzaa, Thomas Editors: Campbell, Bonnie Abstract: Le continent africain est riche en minerais indispensables aux économies occidentales. Et pourtant l’industrie minière contribue très peu au développement de l’Afrique. En analysant l’incidence de la Revue des industries extractives de 2003 sur un certain nombre de pays africains, les collaborateurs à cet ouvrage ont constaté qu’une dimension clé du problème réside dans les cadres réglementaires imposés aux pays africains par le Fonds monétaire international et la Banque mondiale. Ils visent à convaincre les universitaires, les gouvernements et l’industrie que la réglementation a besoin d’être réformée pour créer une industrie minière propice au développement social et économique et à la protection de l’environnement. Cet ouvrage adopte une approche pluridisciplinaire et fournit une perspective historique pour chaque pays, ce qui le rend idéal pour les étudiants dans le domaine du développement.
