Tamil Nadu's Health system as a replicable model.

Micro- Planning from Community Scorecards. A nice article on the interaction of district administration and community.

Another blog post from the World Bank on "communication 4 development". A concept I have never heard of. But seems quite interesting.

from the article -
"It would come hardly as a surprise to anybody that academic and training centres dealing with technical topics such as engineering, environment, or health do not provide much know-how on how social or behaviour change takes place. That is why C4D is needed to ensure that the technical solutions are not only appropriate and well-received, but also adopted. Many of the past failures in development initiatives can be traced back to the lack of social and behavior change communication or to the limited use of communication simply as a means to disseminate information about activities."
