Summary/Overview:

Eldis is a website that focuses on international development. It provides access to a lot of resources, including links to thousands of online documents, over 30 subject-focussed guides, an email news service, country profiles and a jobs and events listing. Although the site is generally concerned with all aspects of international development, the section based specifically around participation is strong.

There is a general overview of the participation sector, and numerous links to resources and other sources of information. Participation is viewed in a broad variety of contexts, and it is easy to search for documents and resources. The website itself is well designed and the text is clear and concise, making this an excellent tool to discover more about participation in a development context.
