    Abstract

    Introducing watershed development program to the community has always been recognized as an important activity. This is done through what are called ‘entry point activities’ (EPA) in the parlance of watershed literature. It involves building the rapport with the community, strengthening and sustaining it through out the program and beyond. Knowledge-based EPAs are found more e)ective to build rapport with the community by ensuring tangible economic bene*ts for the community.
