5.2. Recommendations
In the context of the SPREAD-NUR, even though the approach is
promoting Rural Development, there are some gaps within SPREAD-NUR's coverage.
They are at the level of the participation of targeted population in activities
towards rural development lanced by SPREAD-NUR, and of updates to information
and accountability from actors in the development sector. Taking into
consideration findings of this research and to cope with gaps revealed
following the survey, these recommendations are offered in order to concentrate
the SPREAD-NUR's policies for Rural development:
· Education and training need to be placed at the
forefront of the rural development agenda in order to fight the evident extreme
poverty and hunger in rural areas; to break the poverty induced poverty result
cycle of rural life; to ensure sustainable agriculture, and to build the human
capacity needed for development.
· National University of Rwanda should enact and apply
strict valuable interest for rural development, and encourage Rural people to
cooperate friendly in programs for development.
· SPREAD-NUR should show its caring interest in the poor
by providing helpful project to the poor as soon as they require it.
· The ABAHUZAMUGAMBI Cooperative Member should work
closely with SPREAD-NUR for periodic surveys on perception towards rural
development.
After that they have been developed, the researcher is
confident that these practices will be useful for NUR through its implication
in rural development and for rural communities inside and outside where NUR
operates. Before putting these kinds of policies into practice, unique and
potential aspects of local communities will always need to be studied in-depth
to fit with their environmental and needs in the future. Also, SPREAD-NUR's
project and management capacity are crucial to carrying out such an approach.
Consequently the most important experience from SPREAD-NUR's partnership is
that rural people should have both the commitment and will to promote a
self-sustaining community through the principles of self-help, self-control,
and self-organization.
