- Description: One of the principles of Reconstruction and Development Programme is that development projects should be people driven. One of the programmes through which such people driven development is meant to be realized is the Enhanced Peoples Housing Process. This research seeks to identify the limitations in the implementation of the Enhanced People’s Housing Policy, to ascertain the involvement of beneficiary communities in the process, and to assess improvement in the quality of life of beneficiaries who have acquired houses. It is argued that these limitations may be attributed to the interpretation and implementation of the Policy Guidelines for the implementation of PHP. The researcher is of the view that development programmes should be participatory and that this will promote empowerment of communities as opposed to the creation of dependency. The researcher has selected two case studies which show that the involvement of communities in planning and decision making does meet the needs and demands of the community for improvement in an efficient and effective way.
