Descripción
In Community-Driven Development (CDD)
programs, communities identify, prioritize, design and
execute small scale investments. While relevance and
community ownership have been high, it is also crucial that
these public investments meet economic feasibility criteria
and generate adequate rates of return. This note summarizes
the results of three recent ex-post economic analyses of CDD
programs in Burkina Faso, Indonesia and the Philippines. In
all cases, the overall portfolio had relatively high
economic rates of return, with conservative estimates
ranging from 21 to 68 percent. Quantifiable benefits of the
roads, water supply systems, schools, productive projects
and other investments were significant, including documented
time savings, increases in local production and revenues,
and savings on the cost of inputs and services, among
others. In addition, a comparison of CDD implemented
infrastructure projects with comparable government programs
found that CDD projects consistently generated greater cost
efficiency, with savings on unit costs channeled into
additional community infrastructure initiatives.
