development (SHD) or capacity development (CD) on the part of the human
resources and put forward some important criteria to ensure quality in
extension projects. Rural development component of Linking Eastern Anatolia to
Progress program (LEAP) will be given as an example as it relates to these
criteria. <o:p></o:p>
The
External Relations Department of Atatürk University through negotiations with
the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Representation to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">Turkey</st1:country-region></st1:place>
has initiated LEAP, in accordance with the objectives of the university to
contribute to the attempts for socio-economic development in the Region.<o:p></o:p>
The Program Document of LEAP was
signed in May 2000 by <st1:placename w:st="on">Atatürk</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">University</st1:placetype> as the Executive Agency, Ministry of
Foreign Affairs as representative of the Turkish Government and UNDP
Representation to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">Turkey</st1:country-region></st1:place>.
A Program Coordination Unit (PCU) was established within the University in 2001
as called for by the Program Agreement.<o:p></o:p>
There are three sub projects under
LEAP. These are: Participatory Rural Development (PRDP), Entrepreneurship
Support and Tourism Development projects. As the name indicates, participatory
approach was adopted in the Rural Development Project. <o:p></o:p>

them effectively. The important quality criteria includes but not limited to
proper format, methodological approach, thematic relevance, economical
viability, social sensitivity, cultural compatibility, environmental impact,
