Community Empowerment
Community empowerment is the process of enabling individuals and groups within a community to gain control over their lives and influence decisions that affect them. This involves providing resources, skills, and opportunities for participation, allowing community members to identify their needs and work collaboratively towards solutions.
Empowerment can lead to improved social, economic, and political conditions, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility among community members. By engaging in activities such as community organizing, advocacy, and education, individuals can build confidence and capacity, ultimately leading to stronger, more resilient communities.
