Abstract:

It is more plausible that attention will be given to ways in which the Negev can develop its human services through being more effective and cost efficient, in other words, adopting a strategy of “doing more for less". Through this approach, the planning process will take on greater importance, especially in terms of four basic tasks: 1) information gathering and problem definition; 2) setting objectives (or describing options) and prioritizing them; 3) choosing objectives (or options) and allocating resources; and, 4) collecting data on program implementation and then interpreting the information.
