COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT IN OUR LADY OF
FATIMA UNIVERSITY
COMMUNITY
 COMMUNITY is a social organization that is

characterized by a set of patterned human
interactions based on shared expectations,
values, beliefs, and meanings between and
among its members.
TYPES OF COMMUNITIES
 URBAN – cities or big towns where there is a large, high-
dense, and heterogenous population. Not much open
space for vegetation, but space is maximized to build
public and private infrastructure
 RURAL – small, low-density, and homogenous population.
There are lots of open spaces for vegetation and natural
environment. Mostly dedicated to agriculture or fisheries.
 SUBURBAN – residential or mix used areas located at the
outskirts or within the commuting distance of a city.
 RURBAN – has both urban and rural characteristics.
Happens when people from different urban slum
communities are relocated in housing settlements found
in the outskirts of rural areas
SUBSYSTEMS OF THE COMMUNITY
 HOUSING- includes the type and characteristic of housing
facilities in the community; availability of housing facilities;
presence of housing laws/ regulations governing the people
 EDUCATION- includes laws, regulations, facilities, activities
affecting education; ratio of health educators to learners,
distribution of educational facilities in the community
including a look into who utilizes these; presence of
informal educational facilities and activities existing in the
community
 FIRE AND SAFETY -availability and accessibility of fire
protection and safety services and facilities
 POLITICS AND GOVERNMENT -existing political structure,
decision-making process/ pattern, leadership styles
observed, etc.
SUBSYSTEMS OF THE COMMUNITY
 HEALTH -facilities and services/ activities and its
availability and accessibility; ratio of providers
and clients availing of the service
 COMMUNICATION -systems, types of forms of
communication existing and how these influence
community health
 ECONOMICS – occupations, types of economic
activities engaged by the people
 RECREATION – activities and facilities including
types of consumers, appropriateness of
recreational activities
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENTrefers to the

collaboration between institutions of higher
education and their larger communities (local,
regional, national, global) for the mutually
beneficial exchange of knowledge and
resources in a context of partnership and
reciprocity (Driscoll 2008, p. 39)
SOCIAL ORIENTATION AND COMMUNITY
INVOLVEMENT (SOCI)
Vision
Our Lady of Fatima University envisions itself as among the top
higher education institutions that provides extension and
outreach activities to its adopted communities through
meaningful and sustainable development programs.
Mission
Social Orientation and Community Involvement at the Our Lady
of Fatima University provides an avenue for the promotion of
volunteerism among students, employees, and other
stakeholders through its programs that are sustainable,
empowering, gender-sensitive, and issue-related. These focus
on the areas of Health, Education/ Environment, Livelihood,
Psychosocial, and Safety/Security targeted at its partner
communities.
OBJECTIVES OF THE SOCIAL ORIENTATION AND
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
The Social Orientation and Community

Involvement at Our Lady of Fatima University
aims to implement programs that:
 Instillthe spirit of volunteerism among students,
OLFU personnel, and other university
stakeholders;
 Result in the formation or development of socio-
civic minded community leaders and residents;
 Improve the general well-being of OLFU’s adopted
community as a result of the partnership with
OLFU.
KEY AREAS OF THE HELPS PROGRAM
 The community programs of Our Lady of Fatima University are
clustered into what is called the HELPS Program. The different
OLFU colleges/departments are grouped into clusters that are
related to their program offerings. The Colleges of Nursing,
Physical Therapy, Medical Laboratory Science, Dentistry, and
Pharmacy comprise the Health cluster. The programs in the
Education cluster are led by the Colleges of Computer Studies and
Education. The Livelihood cluster is led by the colleges of Business
and Accountancy, Hospitality and Institutional Management, and
Maritime Studies. The Psychosocial cluster programs are led by
the College of Arts and Sciences. The Safety/Security cluster has
the College of Maritime Education and College of Criminal Justice.
The Safety/Security cluster was previously under the education
cluster but was separated to its own cluster to give emphasis to
programs related to issues on safety and security in the
community such as disaster preparedness and crime prevention.
HELPS PROGRAM
HEALTH
The main objective of the Health cluster is to increase awareness on
prevention, early intervention, rehabilitation of identified health issues
in the community. Essential aspects of health are woven into daily
activities including: exercise, personal hygiene, food preparation, water
safety, sanitation, and treatment of minor ailments and injuries.
EDUCATION
Education is universally recognized as one of the most fundamental
building blocks for human development and poverty reduction. When
given the opportunity to learn, people are empowered to contribute
fully to the development of their lives, their communities, and their
country. Education remains one of the efficient means in reducing
poverty, social inequality, and helps lay the foundation for sustained
economic growth.
HELPS PROGRAM
 As a learning institution, the university facilitates societal
development primarily through instruction. The students who
will graduate from the university will eventually become
productive members of the society. However, it is a reality that
not everyone is able to undergo formal education. It is also a
known fact that school children from poor families are mostly
poor performers in school. SOCI intervenes through non-
formal supplemental teaching programs. The main concern
on education deals in promoting children’s delight in talking,
listening, reading, and writing. Children who have reading
difficulties in the primary grades often have limited early
literacy learning experiences. Aside from these, SOCI also
assists in providing necessary skills such as computer literacy
for children.
HELPS PROGRAM
ENVIRONMENT
Environment degradation is a major global issue. Our country
belongs to the most vulnerable areas in terms of adverse
impacts of weather-related calamities. With that, advocacies
on environmental protection and climate change adaptation
must be put forward as part of the programs of SOCI. We all
live in one major ecosystem, and what we do echoes in all
other areas of our society.
SOCI conducts environmental activities such as seminars on
climate change, coastal cleanup activities, tree planting, and
other activities.
HELPS PROGRAM
LIVELIHOOD
The majority of households in the communities
adopted by the university have low family income.
SOCI implements livelihood projects to help augment
the income of these families. The livelihood projects
implemented are based on the needs and existing
skills of the community. The community is part of the
decision-making process on appropriate livelihood
projects that will be implemented in the community.
HELPS PROGRAM
PSYCHOSOCIAL
The psycho-spiritual program of SOCI is focused on values
formation, leadership training, and improvement of the
spirituality of the community. This program is aimed at the
young member of the partner community. Believing that the
youth is the future of the nation, we must help shape the
minds of our youth by providing meaningful and productive
activities. SOCI aims to create leaders in the community that
will take over the university’s role in organizing community
development activities once the community becomes
independent.
HELPS PROGRAM
SAFETY AND SECURITY

The university conducts trainings and
seminars in the community that will help
make the society safe and secure. Projects
and activities in this area include: disaster
preparedness seminars, seminar on crime
prevention, and other activities.

LEVELS OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Non – Participation
to educate or cure the stakeholders. The idea is defined and the participation is aimed
only to gain public support. If we educate the stakeholders, they change their ill informed
attitudes and they will support our plans”
 Stages: 1. Manipulation , 2. Therapy
Tokenism
 Stage 3: Informing
– stakeholders are kept informed of what is hgoing on but are not offered the
opportunity to contribute themselves. Communication is one way
 Stage 4: Consultation
Stakeholders opinions and views are sought through various means but the final
decisions are made by those doing the consulting.
 Stage 5: Placation
Stakeholders have an active role as shapers of opinions, ideas and outcomes, but
the final decision remains with the facilitators. Two-way communication is essential
LEVELS OF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Citizen Participation
 Stage 6: Partnership
Stakeholders have direct involvement in the decision making process and
auctioning the decision. Each stakeholders has a clear role, set of responsibilities
and powers usually to achieve a shared common goal. Two way communication is
vital.
 Stage 7: Delegated Power

The goal is likely to have been set by the facilitator but the resources and
responsibility for solving the problem are passed to the stakeholders. There are
clear lines of accountability and two way communication with those giving away
the power.
 Stage 8: Citizen Control

Stakeholders have the idea, set up the project and come to facilitators for a dvice,
discussion and support. Facilitators do not directbut offer advices for citizens to
consider.
MODALITIES OF COMMUNITY
ENGAGEMENT
 Transactional
Relationship is usually one way that is tangible
project delivarables mainly come from decision
made by external agents based on consultations
with the community. interactions with the
community is occasional, service comes on a
need per need basis or is seasonal, and the
external agents has full control of the community
engagement process.
ENGAGEMENT
 Transitional
Relationship is two way that is tangible project
delivarables are brought about by the process of
consultation and collaboration between the
external agent and the community. Repeated
engagement between the external agent and the
community occur due to the infusion of
consultation and collaboration mechanisms in
organizing and implementing projects, but
resources mainly comes from the external agent
and they are in full control of the community
engagement process.
ENGAGEMENT
Tranformational
Relationship is 2 way just like transitional but is
highly characterized by active dialogue and
critical reflectivity brought about by the process
of involvement and active participation between
the external agent and the community. in here
there is joint learning and value generation
involved resulting to mutual trust based on
sustained personal relationships and shared
understanding. There is also prioritization of
community leadership in the decision making
gproess of planning, implementation, monitoring
and evaluation of projects.
ENGAGEMENT
Transcendental
 It is an advanced form of transformational
modality anchored upon higher ideals of
compassion and pro social attitudes where
external agents and the community see
themselves as change agents.
3 FEATURES OF TRANSCENDENCE
Intellectual transcendence
Moral transcendence
Spiritual transcendence
COMMUNITY VISIT: INTERVIEW WITH
COMMUNITY LEADERS
LEADERS’ ENCOUNTERED PROBLEM
It is common for leaders to encounter problems. These problems
measure the leadership skills of an individual. According to Nguyen
(2010), the following are common problems encountered by
communities regarding leadership:
 Absence of team identity – team identity is the members’ sense
that they share a bond and a purpose, and absence of such is bad
for the team
 Difficulty in making decisions – decision-making is difficult if it will
only be decided based on concepts rather than on actual
experiences, lessons, insights, reflections, and evaluation. A leader
must base decisinos from experiences, right information, and
complexities of the situation.
 Poor communication – effective relationship must be put into
practice so as to achieve an effective communication.
Communicating well is a key in having a better community or
organization.
 Inability to resolve conflicts – conflict arises from differences among
individuals. It is unhealthy for a community or an organization to be in
conlfict and not be able to resolve it. Developing a clear process on conflict
resolution will help a community to prevent unnecessary conflicts from
escalating
 Lack of participation – this is a very common problem in groups and
organizations. A group member may be shy, has low self-esteem, lacks
interest or avoids any form of communication. Giving members a
responsibility, valuing members’ inputs, assigning action items, and
encouraging feedback can eliminate lack of participation
 Lack of creativity – In order to address lack of creativity, it is important to
tell members that they may speak and do things freely, as long as it is for
the completion of the task at hand.
 Absence of group thinking – new ideas are beneficial for a group’s well-
being. The probel arises when some members do not embrace new ideas
or has a mediocre thinking. Critical thinking enable one to take on an
amount of information, sum up information, pick up theories or argunents,
and communicate and justify the point of view he or she has taken.
 Ineffective ledership – incompetent leaders

exhibit indecisiveness and fail to inspire
confidence in their subordinates. They tend to
overexert control and communicate poorly to
their members.
PARTICIPATORY RAPID APPRAISAL
PART 1
 The purpose of PRA is more to gain an

understanding of the complexities of a topic
rather than to gather a highly accurate statistics
on a list of variables. In PRA, understanding the
qualitative nuances within a topic is just as
important as finding general averages. Its short
duration and low cost also make it possible to
carry out a series of PRAs rather than having to
rely on the results of one large survey.
 In this module, we will focus on one of the basic
techniques in participatory rapid appraisal, which
is participatory mapping.
PARTICIPATORY MAPPING
 Participatory mapping allows the team to

discover the mental maps of community
members. It is a technique that requires the
participation of residents on a project site. It
can be used to help located natural
resources, routes, service delivery points,
regional markets, trouble spots, etc., on a
map of the area or to use residens’ feedback
to drive the development of a map that
includes such information.
PARTICIPATORY MAPPING STEPS
Steps:
 Decide what sort of map should be drawn (social,
natural resources, farm, etc.)
 Find people who know the area and the topic of
mapping exercise and who are willing to share their
knowledge
 Choose a suitable place and medium for the maps
 Help the people get started but let them draw the
map by themselves. Be patient and don’t interrupt
 Keep a permanent record including mapper’s names
PART 2
 The purpose of PRA is more to gain an

understanding of the complexities of a topic
rather than to gather a highly accurate statistics
on a list of variables. In PRA, understanding the
qualitative nuances within a topic is just as
important as finding general averages. Its short
duration and low cost also make it possible to
carry out a series of PRAs rather than having to
rely on the results of one large survey.
 In this module, we will focus on one of the basic
techniques in participatory rapid appraisal, which
is focused group discussion.
FOCUSED GROUP DISCUSSION
 A focus group discussion (FGD) is a good way to gather
together people from similar backgrounds or
experiences to discuss a specific topic of interest. The
group of participants is guided by a moderator (or
group facilitator) who introduces topics for discussion
and helps the group to participate in a lively and
natural discussion amongst themselves.
 The strength of FGD relies on allowing the participants
to agree or disagree with each other so that it provides
an insight into how a group thinks about an issue,
about the range of opinion and ideas, and the
inconsistencies and variation that exists in a
community in terms of beliefs and their experiences
and practices.
 FGDs can be used to explore the meanings of survey
findings that cannot be explained statistically, the range of
opinions/views on a topic of interest and to collect a wide
variety of local terms. In bridging research and policy, FGD
can be useful in providing an insight into different opinions
among different parties involved in the change process,
thus enabling the process to be managed more smoothly. It
is also a good method to employ prior to designing
questionnaires.
 FGD sessions need to be prepared carefully through
identifying the main objective(s) of the meeting, developing
key questions, developing an agenda, and planning how to
record the session. The next step is to identify and invite
suitable discussion participants; the ideal number is
between six and eight.
 The crucial element of FGD is the facilitation.
Some important points to bear in mind in
facilitating FGDs are to ensure even
participation, careful wording of the key
questions, maintaining a neutral attitude and
appearance, and summarising the session to
reflect the opinions evenly and fairly. A
detailed report should be prepared after the
session is finished. Any observations during
the session should be noted and included in
the report.
COMMUNITY MAPPING AND
MODULE ACTIVITY 1
PARTICIPATORY MAPPING
Different groups will be assigned to draw a

specific map. These are: residential map, social
services map, and natural resources map.
 For each group, select at least two community
members who will participate in the mapping
exercise. Be sure that the participants you will select
are knowledgeable about the community.
 As you go around the community, take a mental note
of the places you visit and write the information you
gather on a piece of paper.
 After walking around the community, ask the
participants to draw the map on a big brown paper.
Be sure to identify the different locations on the map.
MODULE ACTIVITY 2
If your group is assigned to facilitate the FGD, you

will facilitate a focused group discussion in the
community.
 Select a location in the community where you can
conduct the discussion.
 Invite people who will participate in your discussion.
Select 7 to 10 community members to join in the
discussion.
 Assign members of your group to the different tasks in
the FGD. Assign facilitators, note takers, documenters,
and other tasks.
 During discussion, ensure that all the participants
have a chance to express their thoughts.

COMMUNITY ORGANIZING
COMMUNITY ORGANIZING
 Community Organizing (CO) is a continuous process of living
and awareness raising or conscientization with and in the
context of the people and communities that would develop
and enhance community’s potentials and capabilities, and
collective action and participation leading towards
development and empowerment. It is the process of
development from the people, by the people, and for the
people (Manalili 1994). This refers to the activities aimed at
the grouping of people to struggle for their common needs
and aspirations in a given locality. It revolves around the
people’s lives, experiences, and aspirations. Community
organizing is geared towards the continuing capability
building, self-reliance, and empowerment.
 The ultimate goal of community organizing is to effect
changes in social and environmental institutions so that
people can direct their own lives.
BASIC STEPS, PRINCIPLES, AND IMPORTANT
CONSIDERATIONS
Pre-Entry Into the Community

There are activities to be done or accomplished
before entering into communities.
 a. Set guidelines or criteria in selecting partner
community to work with.
 b. Collate basic and substantial information/data of
the community.
 c. Try to understand the life, culture, values, beliefs,
etc. of the community.
 d. To get know the formal and informal leaders of the
community.
CONSIDERATIONS
Integration Into the Community

 There are no organizers who became
successful in their mission who does not
immersed in the communities they have
worked with. Through the process of
immersion, community organizers can feel the
real community’s life situation of the
community, taking part in their experiences,
poverty and dreams.
CONSIDERATIONS
Community Study/Analysis
 Before entering into the community, we have initial
information or data at hand. In this step, community study
or analysis pertains to the critical collation of different data
and information of community life’s sphere to be able to
come-up with clear description and analysis of community
situation. It is a long and continuous process taking part
both by the community and by the community organizer.
 The community is in the right position to analyze their
situation. It is not right or justifiable that people or
community’s role is simply just supplying the answers in
survey form or questionnaires. It is a challenge for
community organizer to ensure the meaningful
participation of the peoples in the research and analysis.
CONSIDERATIONS
Spotting of Potential Community Leaders
 Community should have their own leaders with right values and
characteristics. It is very vital in the process of development
and empowerment of the community.
 Who are the possible community leaders? a. They have deeper
knowledge or grasp of the situation, especially pressing issues,
problems, and concerns. b. They are willing to act and commit
theirselves for the benefits and development of fellow
community members. c. As long as possible, they came from the
poor sectors. If not, they should be willing to genuinely commit
and work for and with the poor sectors. d. It is not necessary
that they have higher or highest educational attainment in the
community. They are willing to be formed and trained to
become efficient and effective community leaders. e. They have
the time and dedication to act for the community. f. They are
respected and recognized members of the community.
CONSIDERATIONS
Core Group Formation
From those identified potential community leaders, a core group will
be formed to act as local community organizers. The core group will
serve as a foundation in the formation of peoples or community
organization. From this core group, it could reach the larger members
of the community.
Community Organization. The formal community organization should
come from the people. From the initiative of and activities initiated by
the core group towards community organizing, they can call for a
general assembly (GA) or community assembly (CA) to present initial
community development plan that could be accepted and developed
by other community members. Community members’ commitment
should be win so that not only the core group will be responsible.
There are some principles that will guide the organization. These are:
 a. Wider participation of all members;
 b. Democratic and participatory leadership; and
 c. Collective management.
COMMUNITY MOBILIZATION
Community Mobilizationpertains to actions of
the community organization based on their
identified pressing issues, problems, and
concerns. To mobilize, there are processes to be
undertaken, these are:
 a. Identification of issues, problems, and concerns;
 b. Formulation of action plan which contain and has
clear objectives, methodologies or strategies,
timeframe/alloted time, resources needed, and
responsible persons, committees or groups; and
 c. Evaluation process (how it will be evaluated).

COMMUNITY IMMERSION: PLANNING
WITH COMMUNITY
SWOT ANALYSIS AS A TOOL FOR PLANNING A
COMMUNITY PROJECT
 SWOT analysis is one of the most common tools used to
understanding the strengths and weaknesses of a
particular community or organization. It is a useful tool in
setting the objective of a project and identify the internal
and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to
achieving the objectives. SWOT analysis helps in deciding if
an objective is attainable based on the idenfied situation
of the community.
 Strengths and weakness are internally-related, while
opportunities and threats are external. Internal factors may
include: resources of the community, location, facilities
present, activities and processes. External factors include:
trends and patterns, economy, funding sources, changes in
demographics, legislation, local and national events.
PLANNING FOR COMMUNITY
PROJECTS
PLANNING PROCESS
The planning process plays a crucial role in community
development. It involves the setting of goals, identifying key
players, and managing resources to achieve such goals.
 Recognize the Need for Action – the planning team must
first be aware of the need for action in order to take the
necessary steps to achieve the goals. A SWOT analysis may
be used to identify the strengths and weaknesses of a
community
 Set objectives – the team must be able to indicate the end
result that you wish to achieve. What are the desirable
changes once the project or activity is completed?
 Develop strategies – what are the means to achieve
desirable outcomes? Strategies must be in line with the
address the objectives set.
PLANNING PROCESS
 Identify projects and activities – based on the
objectives and strategies, what activities or
projects should be prioritized to address the
community needs and issues?
 Implement - once a project or activity has been
selected, the team may now prepare for the
implementation of the activity.
 Monitor and evaluate – this will check if the
activities implemented were able to address the
objectives set. Monitoring and evaluation will
serve as a guide to improve future projects and
activities.
