Abstract

The sustainability of development actions is a high desired goal from the beginning of any project or program. However, this is an element that does not come spontaneously unless it is planned for and foreseen. But, what do we mean by sustainability? In my professional experience working in development projects and programs, sustainability has to do with the local context, institutional settings, ownership and participation of beneficiaries. Moreover, under a Christian perspective, sustainability has to do with personal beliefs, attitudes and actions (behavior change) that shape the final result of development efforts.
