5. Definition of terms
Figure
Review the terms on the overhead and ask the participants if these definitions are familiar to them. Ask participants to clarify their own sense of what development is. Compare different definitions that me group identifies and ask how different groups within a vulnerable society might define development.
Warning! Cover this point quickly and then move on. The discussion of terms and definitions can often take too much valuable time in the presentation without leading to any consensus or particular point The idea is to simply acknowledge that terminology differs among users, and to agree on a definition to be used for this training.
