Projects that directly benefit a limited number of people are discouraged.· Self-Help activities must help improve basic economic or social conditions at the local community or village level;· Self-Help projects must also be viable and sustainable in terms of finance, personnel support (i.e. teachers for schoolrooms), and necessary expertise and services. · Self-Help projects must also respect environmental norms for small projects. · Self-Help activities must fall within the ability of the local community to implement. Activities that are too complex should be avoided.
