CIDE-5210 Planning and Funding for Development

In this course, an emphasis will be made on the development of the notions, methodologies, instruments, and questions considered relevant for the management of development from a local focus, based on the premise that management of local development goes beyond favoring and supporting different local initiatives for development, furthermore, implies the formulation of a comprehensive and integrating vision of territorial development and common objectives for its inhabitants, the formulation and generation of strategies for local action from a global perspective, that is to say, taking into account both national and international contexts. The establishment of criteria that render possible the proper ranking of priorities and the allocation of resources. A process of strategic systematic planning for the management of changes openly taking into account the availability of resources and oriented to practical results, implies the participation of people within a context of uncertainty and shared power. In this course an emphasis is made in the development of the planning, funding, and management processes as key elements on the management of local development.
