Let Us Practice

Activity 1. Okay. Let me continue!

1. Community Action Plan requires time and resources because the process is long,
documentary, and necessitous to meet the needs for changes and to ensure project success.

2. Change and Development is possible in every community if there is a proper action planning
and broad collaborative partnerships among members, funders and support organizations
because working together can have a clear vision of improvement.

and social progressions that impact things.

Let Us Reflect

“A community action plan is a road map for pushing change and making development in the
community”
Community action plan are akin to road maps for implementing community-led change by
identifying what will be done, who will do it and how it will be done to achieve its vision. It describes
exactly what a community wants to accomplish, how it will to do so and the resources needed to be
successful. Desirable changes and proposed activities, timelines, and assignment of accountability
provide a detailed road map for collaborators to follow.

3 Community Agents of Change

1. Neighbourhood Community. They can contribute resources for waste management, in terms of
knowledge, financial contributions and organisational matters.
2. Local Authorities. They can encourage people to subscribe for waste collection, to simulate the
separation of waste, and to monitor the performance of service level since they have the
position of trust.
3. Nucleus of Community Stakeholder Group. They guide the development of improved services
in the community and ensure feedback with the groups they represent.

Activity 4: We all Matters!

“Being asked for an opinion and then ignored is much more insulting and infuriating than never being
asked in the first place”
Everyone has the right for the opinion to be respected as stated in Articles 1 and 2 of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights. If one consult people in the community, they have to pay
attention to what they tell them. Ignoring ideas and recommendations is insulting. At the very least.
People deserve an explanation of why their advice isn’t being followed. Failed to do so will result to
lower chances of stakeholders’ participations.

Activity 5: I am saying!

One move, will be multiplied by thousands of people, can transform the community.
