With critical insights into infrastructure governance, this study provides perspectives from policy-making, urban and rural aspects, technology, connectivity, capacity building and participation. There is an increasingly urgent need for large-scale environmental improvement programs and for strengthening governance and the capacity of local institutions to plan, implement, and finance infrastructure provision and service delivery. The book contains a number of such best-practice case studies to reflect community participation, innovation, and commitment--all vital ingredients to the process of building from the bottom up.
