The review focuses on success factors, using complexity theory and a community development approach for analysis. The research team spoke to eight Ministry of Social Development (MSD) SKIP staff, 75 parents, 12 community organisations and four national organisations. The MSD’s SKIP staff selected organisations they perceived as successful for case studies. The researchers selected interviewees that came from a range of geographical locations, types of activities, ethnicity, and variety in approach to SKIP projects. This summary report of their findings has been written by Dr. Elizabeth Clements." (from p.2). Available from the website in PDF and Word DOC file formats.
