Abstract
This study investigates the factors that contribute to poor community
participation in development projects implemented at the Ha-Makuya area
of the Limpopo province of South Africa. The NDA as a statutory body
responsible for poverty eradication through funding Community Based
Organizations and Non-Governmental Organizations funded two projects
in Ha-Makuya in 2001. The two projects failed to achieve their objectives
largely because community members did not participate in them. The
research also looks at how the NDA is contributing to poor community
participation in the poverty eradication process. The study concludes by
providing a number of recommendations that should be considered in
order to ensure that of community members effectively participate in
similar projects in the future.
