Please find a three-paragraph case study that showcases community development projects
in Africa where both blueprint and participatory approaches are used. After reading the case
study, please answer the questions that follow.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Question 4 Case Study
In many parts of Africa, community development projects often involve conducting environmental
impact assessments (EIAs) to evaluate the potential effects of the project on the environment.
These assessments play a crucial role in ensuring sustainable and environmentally responsible
development practices.
One example of such a project is the construction of a hydroelectric power plant in a rural
community in Ghana. The project aimed to provide clean and renewable energy to the community,
but it also raised concerns about the potential impact on the local ecosystem and water resources.
