| description |
This paper outlines a number of
practical initiatives to strengthen the role of development
communication in infrastructure projects. The authors aim to
facilitate better quality projects and to build consensus on
the type of governance reforms needed to fight corruption,
drawing on the experience of development agencies like the
World Bank and Transparency International, the leading
anticorruption NGO. The paper starts by characterizing
corruption vulnerabilities in infrastructure and proceeds to
illustrate where communication has added value on a number
of recent projects, both in respect to making the projects
more sustainable and by incorporating anti-corruption
measures into the project preparation and implementation
phases. It draws on examples of mainly World Bank supported
projects from the road, transport, power and water sectors
in different governance contexts. Part of the intellectual
challenge in mainstreaming development communication in the
case of infrastructure is to bridge the infrastructure and
communication paradigms. Finally, the paper suggests that
today, from the perspective of the infrastructure
practitioner and the development practitioner in general,
development communication is at the same crossroads as
environmentally sustainable development was in the early
1990's-but in a new context and perhaps with more
urgent drivers for mainstreaming. |
