| dc.description.alternativeAbstract | As the fight against global extreme poverty prevails even after 50 years, it is still empirically difficult to show case whether or not things are getting better. Thus, facing extreme poverty via pumping billions of US dollars in the form of foreign aid, continuous to weather massive critisms. While some economists have used models to justify the existence of a financial gap between production levels and foreign exchange earnings, indicating the availability of limited resources for investment which can only be solved by foreign aids, others rather find it difficult to see any possible nexus between poverty trap and development. Cameroon with her numerous resources still depends on foreign aid while the rate of poverty is still high. Thus, even though historical evidence gives impetus on developmental aid’s role through the top down approach to development as a spring board uplifting states from the doldrums of poverty impasse, one still finds it very difficult to draw a substantial balance between developmental aid and poverty reduction. Against this back drop of controversy therefore, I find it apt to put Cameroon on a scale balance. Thus, the purpose of this research is to critically assess the implications of developmental aid on poverty reduction in Cameroon, using the RUMPI Area Development Project in the South West Region of Cameroon as a case study. It will go a long way to situate and contextualize the top down and bottom up approaches to development within the basis of a Cameroonian perspective, using the Sachs-Easterly debate. The RUMPI Project was introduced with the objective of improving agriculture, empowering the rural woman and thus fighting poverty within the South West Region of Cameroon. Despite its critisms based on corruption, political pressure and limited use of local and grass root partnership to development, the study in assessing these failures also try to outline vital ways in which the project can be improved upon. | - |
