List potential reasons in which this report of development projects in Eritrea could be selected to discuss. The report titled "Village Projects Observed in Eritrea: Post-Conflict Pathways Towards Democratic Rural Development" by Greg Cameron discusses the shortcomings of Eritrea's rural development trajectory. The report is based on research conducted on rural development projects in selected villages, which were primarily characterized by a state-centric technocratic approach. This approach resulted in some infrastructure development but lacked focus on building village-level capacity or organizational autonomy. The report suggests a new development model that is inward-oriented, focusing on the home market, rural cooperatives, and food sovereignty. However, the feasibility of this transition is uncertain due to ongoing conflict between Eritrea and Ethiopia. The report emphasizes the importance of agriculture in Eritrea's economy, which, during the fieldwork conducted from 2004-2006, sustained 80% of the population but only comprised 22.6% of GDP. The underdevelopment of this sector led to two-thirds of the population being unable to meet their basic needs, with 66% of households living below the poverty line in 2004. The report proposes a more democratic and self-reliant rural development model to address these issues
