Abstract
The study was about the process evaluation of the development of the YOUNG
WORKERS CAMPAIGN (YWC) Programme to document and analyses the
involvement and participation of stakeholders in the development process.
The purpose of the study was on the assessment of stakeholder participation and
involvement in the development of the YWC to maximise the effectiveness,
acceptability and sustainability of the intended programme.
Informant interviews, focus group interviews and document analysis were the
primary means of collecting data for this research study.
The main findings are as follows: Few of the stakeholders were involved in the
conceptualisation phase of the YWC Programme and their roles in the
development process were not clearly described. Stakeholder analysis was not
done and their involvement in decision-making was limited.
In order to address the problem of participation, YWC stakeholders should pass
through a process of stakeholder analysis, that is, they should be assessed in
terms of contribution and value-adding to the development process.
