World Community Development Institute...
In order to provide efficient, effective and sustainable community development services, WCDP uses research to evaluate best practices. This work is conducted by the World Community Development Institute (WCDI). The work of WCDI is to be published in a quarterly online journal. This journal, and the research conducted at the institute, emphasize practical solutions to real world development problems. Thus it becomes a valuable resource not only for WCDP but for any individual or organization working on community development issues.
