The purpose of this study is to assess the relationship between externally stimulated development and continued community control in the Senegal River Basin of West Africa. This micro level irrigation impact study reviews the contents of the technical package and the impact it has on the individual peasant, local village organization, regional organizations, and the national and international agencies involved in the rural development process. The study focusses on: (1) the tension between local autonomy and state intervention; (2) the nature of leadership, participation and organizational response through emerging water users' associations; and (3) the local, regional, national, and international linkages.
