Title: Quest for economic development in agrarian localities
Abstract: This paper describes and analyzes the operational strategy of West Nile region,
 a typical low local capability community, in pursuit of local economic
 development. Special emphasis has been placed on the development of groups
 of survival beekeeping-enterprises and their integration in the local economy.
 The region provides an interesting example of what public-private partnerships
 can offer for local economic development.
 Secondly, it is an attempt to document, in a coherent manner, the activities
 and contributions of the key actors in the honey and beeswax value chain,
 including support from complementary institutions.
 Finally, it conceptualizes and theorizes the practice of beekeeping, honey
 extraction, processing and marketing in West Nile. Possible lessons that can be
 learnt from the experience are also identified and discussed.
