SamenvattingIn 2006, the impact of capacity development programmes on the performance of participative local government in 20 municipalities in southern Benin was examined. The performance was assessed in terms of improvements to the economy, the health and education, as well as the living conditions of its citizens. Benin’s municipalities use a municipal development plan to achieve this improvement. What is the relation between the performance in implementing the municipal plan and the level of social capital, the quality of leadership, the use of participatory approaches and the feeling of ownership? The findings of the research did not confirm the correlation between performance on the one hand and social capital, ownership, leadership and participation on the other.
