The document discusses the importance of social capital for economic development. It describes social capital as the social networks and norms of reciprocity within a society that enhance cooperation for mutual benefit. When people cooperate and trust one another, entire communities can benefit through improved access to credit, information, and markets. However, efforts to build social capital require time and cannot be imposed from outside; they are most effective when approached gradually through participatory community activities.
