Dear all,
We would be very interested to hear back from colleagues in the field on the Background Note.
Please let us know whether this type of approach is relevant to your work?
Let us know where undestanding power relationships in country have been useful for dialogue with partners and/or programme implementation?
Thanks

Chantal,
Thank you very much for kicking off the discussion with these questions. I'd like to add three more that may help focus ideas.
1) Do you agree or disagree with the concepts and ideas presented in the background paper? Is it based on a realistic theory of change about how development happens and how development agencies can support this?
2) How useful do you think that the analytical framework will be in helping development agencies to work more effectively? In your own areas of work are there examples of where a political economy approach would be useful for improving development effectiveness?
3) How should development agencies be using political economy analysis? What are the challenges in adopting political economy analysis tools, and how can these be addressed?
