Principles of Community Organizing to Keep in Mind

• Local people are in the best position to solve local problems.

• People support what they help create.

• The process of changing negative social norms is an inclusive process which engages all facets of a community in a collaborative approach.

• There is no single strategy or initiative that solves all problems.

• Communities should have environment in which individuals can empower themselves to address their own and their community’s health needs .

• Consistent monitoring, accountability, ongoing assessment, and evaluation are integral parts of the program planning and deliver process.
