Preferred term

bottom-up approaches  

Definition

  • The bottom-up approach takes the view that policy and action cannot simply be separated; hence, policy implementation is an essentially political process. It is concerned with the dynamism that bureaucrats and street-level service providers bring to the policy process. [Source: Encyclopedia of Governance; Bottom-Up Approach]
