This book explores how social groups in the urban fringe of Abuja,
Nigeria, engaged with a series of development projects spanning 15
years (2003 to 2018) which focused on the enhancement of food
security for farming households. The groups were at the heart of
these development projects and the book presents the many insights
that were gained by farmers and project agents working within these
partnerships and provides advice for those seeking to do the same.
The book also explores how the social groups attempted to lever
benefits from being near to the fastest growing city in Africa and
a centre of economic and political power. While much has been
written about social groups and their embeddedness within wider
social networks in Africa and in other parts of the world, the
exploration of the role of social groups within development
projects is an area that remains relatively unchartered and this
book seeks to fill that important gap in knowledge. It provides an
important contribution for all those researching and working with
social groups in the developing world.
