Participatory
Governance
Top-down decision-making often overlooks local priorities, resulting in misaligned public investments and limited community ownership. Forums such as Gram Sabhas and municipal councils intended to foster grassroots democracy are frequently underutilized or captured by dominant voices, leaving women, youth, and marginalized groups excluded from the conversation.
At Kshetra Consulting, we advance inclusive governance by establishing participatory platforms that bring diverse stakeholders into the heart of decision making. Through structured facilitation, capacity building, and inclusive representation frameworks, we help communities articulate their needs and shape development agendas. Our approach enhances transparency, nurtures local leadership, and ensures that governance is responsive, equitable, and grounded in the lived realities of the people it serves.
