Abstract
The main purpose of this review is to evaluate the changing nature of community organizations in an evolutionary manner & look at the reasons why there has been gap between theory & practice of participatory approach. The review, using descriptive analytical method, is also aimed to explore policy and research implications. The study confirms an improvement in the style & role of community organizations in the socio economic development of province & has found the current practice of collaborative approach better in many ways as compared to earlier ones. However, the overall performance of latest approach was found unsatisfactory in terms of its theoretical claims such as reducing poverty, vulnerability & improving empowerment & sustainability on durable bases. Therefore, the study suggests some changes in its approach & style of implementation especially with respect to the role of community organizations.
