The role of non-governmental organisations in rural development

Description:
The study explains how the Voluntary Workcamps Association of Ghana (VWAG) contributes to rural development by mobilising the youth to provide free services during their leisure time. The paper contends that local non-governmental organisations can play a pivotal role in rural development as a supplement to the efforts of the government. The success of the VWAG offers several lessons in rural development that can serve as a model for other developing nations.
