Community Development
Community Development
Poverty is real in many parts of the developing world. Experts note that poverty can be eradicated either by directly putting the resources into individuals and households or by using the same resources to develop the environment in which individuals and households live. The best methods provide the opportunity of enabling people to participate in public decision-making and to achieve greater long-term control over their circumstances. In addition, participatory community development activities can help build capacity in those communities. Achieving these goals requires advocating, capacity building, strengthening local institutions
and implementing basic infrastructure for socioeconomic development.
“4M Global will contribute to build empowered communities where residents hold a common vision of their collective future.”
Global will use multidisciplinary teams, partner with local stakeholders such as service providers and sectoral ministries to enable them to assume an effective role as promoters of local development. Our focus include initiatives to empower and facilitate communities to improve their social and physical environments; address disadvantages and overcome social exclusion; empower and build civil institutions and social capital; and mobilize communities in decision-making and problem solving. Such initiatives will infl uence community
local conditions, improve equity, and target structural changes of the environment rather than individual.
The diverse experience and rich background of 4M Global partners give us a unique perspective to successfully design and implement community development programs with guaranteed success.
