SamenvattingOwnership’, ‘accountability’ and the ‘sector approach’ have long since ceased to be strangers in the world of development cooperation. In practice, however, donors still regularly fund projects that are not embedded sufficiently in the social context and that allow for only minimal participation on the part of users and other people involved. Even with experienced organisations (among which DGIS!) one continues to find ‘stand-alone’ projects. Apparently practice has a hard time keeping up with theory. For PSO this was one of the reasons to start developing a ‘learning trajectory on Programmatic Approaches’ for associated members. What are the successes and pitfalls on the road to the programmatic approach? An overview of lessons and voices from the Dutch sector. One of the conclusions is that “Working programmatically means we need to start asking ourselves questions on participation and ownership all over again.”
