A socio-economic impact assessment study of the South African women in dialogue development caravan programme

The overall aim of this study was to research and evaluate the social and economic impact of implementing the Development Caravan (DC) programme in the lives of families involved across two pilot sites in Fetakgomo and Limpopo by applying, inter alia, a participatory research approach.
