This study examines the endogenous development in the rural community of Daudkandi Thana, Kumilla District, where have been progressed a modernization by foreign-aids, including Japan's ODA and USAID. Although poor women have been excluded from the foreign-aids-funded rural development projects, they have been participating in the social development programme of the civil society such as NGOs, and raising their social awareness and the well-being of their family members. In this paper, we investigate case studies that prove the endogenous development theory to be valid. This approach towards development is different from approach adopted by institutions providing foreign aids which are emblematic of the modernization theory in context to their assumptions and the effectiveness of the trickledown effect.
