The overall purpose of this study was to examine the underlying factors that contribute to developing country partner (DCP) ownership of a development project. The instrumental case study approach was employed to analyse DCP ownership in the Indo-Canada Education Project (ICEP) to that end. ICEP was an education development project funded by the Canadian International Development Agency in the southern Indian states of Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamilnadu for approximately seven years. The results of the study yielded evidence of 3 process factors (participation, power, and control) and 2 attitudinal factors (freedom and commitment) operating over 3 levels (individual, organisational, and institutional) that contributed to DCP ownership in ICEP. Each of the factors expressed themselves differently over the various levels. These distinct expressions were termed, "manifests". A total of 15 manifests were found.
