Community Participation

Community participation can be loosely defined as the involvement of people in a community in projects to solve their own problems. People cannot be forced to ‘participate’ in projects which affect their lives but should be given the opportunity where possible.
It encompasses various forms of engagement, such as volunteering, attending community events, joining clubs or organisations, and interacting with neighbors and fellow citizens. Essentially, it involves individuals and contributing their time,skills and resources to enhance the well-being of their community.
