A handful of projects have made impressive contributions to rural development, and those efforts represent a modicum of hope. Rarely, however, have Honduran grass-roots organizations participated in the sort of collective efforts that development practitioners believe key to sustainable change. This study compares two networks that emerged from development research partnerships in Honduras and represents new opportunities for interaction and contributions to further research and practice. The Honduran Association for the Promotion of Ecological Agriculture (ANAFAE) concentrates on issues associated with sustainable agriculture, and the National Network on Collaborative Natural Resource Management (Colabora) seeks to strengthen community ability to manage common resources.application/pdfen-USIn CopyrightParticipatory processesRural developmentCommunity institutionsConflict resolutionSustainable agricultureUniversitiesAssociationsCommunity developmentGrassroots organizationsHondurasHonduran association for the promotion of ecological agriculture (anafae)National network on collaborative natural resource management (colabora)Community-Based Natural Resource Management (CBNRM)NetworksCollaborative frameworksEcosystem GovernanceBookCopyright 2001 by SANREM CRSP and CARE-SUBIR.
