DEVELOPMENT FINANCING, A MAJOR REQUIREMENT FOR REAL DEVELOPMENT

Development financing refers to the process of providing financial resources to support economic development in low-income countries. The role of development financing is to provide funding for projects that promote sustainable economic growth, job creation, wealth generation, and poverty reduction. Development financing can come in the form of grants, loans, or technical assistance.

The benefits of development financing to the growth and sustainable development of the economy of a developing nation are numerous. It can help to increase access to credit, boost infrastructure development, and promote entrepreneurship and innovation. Development financing can also help to improve the quality of education and healthcare, which are essential components of economic development.

MR. YASHIM VICTOR, COUNTRY DIRECTOR, JAH PUT AH HAND, KEEN ON RAISING SUSTAINABLE LOCAL STRUCTURES SUITABLE FOR EFFECTIVE AGRICULTURE INTERVENTION PROJECT IN NIGERIA

Mr. Yashim Victor, Country Director,

Jah Put Ah Hand

Structures, in particular, local ones are considered in several quarters as the foundation for meaningful development, in both the developed and developing nations. However, structures raised after series of engagement meetings with relevant stakeholders of any proposed idea, project or investment, where the promoters seek to identify, understand and underscore the peculiarities of the people and the uniqueness of their environment, and at the same time secure their buy-in before taking the plunge, are most likely to thrive, and in an exceedingly sustainable manner. Projects that the promoters lack the courage to deploy not only the financial resources but also the capacity to withstand  the huddles, rigours and tensions associated with the series of stakeholders engagement meetings, hardly attain remarkable results.

Explanation of the Proverb

With the exception of punitive expeditions organized by the British Colonial administration on some dissidents and uncompromising tribal groups during their advent in Nigeria, Isuikwuato people: Ndi-Isuikwuato or the Nwanneukwus, knew very little about war organized and fought in such a massive scale as the World War II.
