Abstract

This study assessed the extent of community participation in Constituency Development Fund (CDF) project identification, in Mwense constituency of Mwense district in Zambia. The study employed a descriptive survey research design. The sampling methods used were a combination of stratified proportionate random sampling and purposive sampling techniques. The sample size was 140 respondents. Quantitative data, which was collected using structured questionnaires was cleaned, coded and subjected to Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 17.0), with the use of Pearson Chi-square to test the hypothesis, analyse and interpret data. Qualitative data was clustered along with main themes of the research for ease consolidation and interpretation of information. The study assessed that the extent of community participation on CDF project identification was simply by informing them on what is planned. The study also established that Councillors and the Area Member of Parliament were the ones who were identifying CDF projects in the constituency.
