Facilitating the Organisational Relevance of HRD under a Structurally Adjusting Economic System

Abstract

The human resource development concept is examined in some detail, showing how it differs from ″training″. The structural economic adjustment pattern in ″third world″ countries is examined and some of its implications for the practice of HRD in organisations based in such countries are highlighted. Suggestions are made on the development of a sound approach to HRD by government and HRD practitioners in ″third world″ countries.
