Key Drivers in Sustainable Community Water Projects: Lessons from Elgeyo-Mara...AI Publications
Debate about sustainable development can be traced to the Rio Summit on environment and development where emphasis was placed on empowering local communities to take charge of their own development. Sustainable development advocates for inclusiveness of all in development especially the local community. Participation of stakeholders in any development endeavour guarantees delivery of project benefits to intended users. The recent transition from MDGs to SDGs with a focus on communities clearly demonstrates the relevance of community participation in projects. This paper assesses the significance of various drivers in community led water projects in Elgeyo-Marakwet County. The paper examines different drivers at play in a typical community led water project and assesses how such drivers contribute to project sustainability. The paper concludes that for successful water project implementation, key project drivers should be strengthened by all participating actors.

Community radio is one of the most powerful medium that can be utilised to promote Swachh Bharat Mission, India’s flagship program on sanitation. Radio has the potential to reach out to the people at the last mile at the grassroots who otherwise are deprived of information through different forms of media and sources.
Using video for health, nutrition, and agricultureJSI
A presentation from the SBCC Summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, February 2016. In 2012, Digital Green and SPRING Nutrition project entered into a partnership for SPRING to provide DG with nutrition-related technical assistance and jointly test the feasibility of incorporating nutrition into the Digital Green model that was previously focused on agriculture. SPRING is a global USAID-funded nutrition project comprised of five globally respected nutrition and public health organizations.
SPRING and DG see this community-led video approach, with videos created by the community for the community, as a revolutionary tool for nutrition and health behavior change which blends innovative, low-cost, accessible technology with the strength of human-mediated interpersonal communication techniques. Although video provides a point of focus in this model, it is people and social dynamics that ultimately ensure its effectiveness. The model leverages people-based extension (community health, agriculture, or other) systems functioning through existing social organizations and other structures, and uses video as a tool for engagement, empowerment, motivation, and connection as community members come together and discuss topics relevant to their everyday lives.
Ultimately the approach responds to a demand for greater nutrition knowledge and health education in rural communities and empowers community members and groups to develop and disseminate this information.

Understanding how gender relations shape women’s and men’s lives is critical to disaster risk reduction (DRR). This is because women’s and men’s different roles, responsibilities, and access to resources influence how each will be affected by different hazards, and how they will cope with and recover from disaster. This presentation is part of part of Oxfam GB's Gender and Disaster Risk Reduction training pack available at www.oxfam.org.uk/genderdrrpack.
This presentation was given at the International Family Planning conference in Kampala, Uganda in November 2009 by IRH Georgetown and the Extending Service Delivery (ESD) Project.

The purpose of this research is to know the community participation level in business capital strengthening at LEM Sejahtera Program. This research was conducted in AndomLEMnggo Village Beselutu District, Konawe Regency, Indonesia. The study was conducted during 12 months. This research begins by determining the respondent purposively ie the perpetrator who knows and understands the problem, and is directly involved with the research problem. The number of respondents in this study is determined as much as 25% of the total population. So the number of respondents or actors in this study were as many as 38 people. For qualitative data collection, the determination of informants is based on preliminary information about the existence, their roles and functions, work programs and institutional activities. Results of the study showed that: the level of participation of members of LEM Sejahtera in business capital strengthening program is high. Members have mobilized themselves in an integrated activity (savings and regular meetings) and the parties only act as facilitators.

Community participation is about ensuring meaningful engagement with our communities.
For Watershed development promotion to work well, it must be carried out by and with people, not on or to people.
This means that at all stages of the Watershed development intervention, communities are involved with and retain ownership of any Watershed development action.

Confronting the challenges and barriers to community participation in Post Disaster
Rehabilitation and Reconstruction (PDRR) Process : A Study of Kathmandu, Nepal.
Introduction
Disasters are hazardous events, which affect communities in such
adverse ways that essential social structures and functions are
disrupted. In order to mitigate the impact and recover the community
back in to normal life style, post disaster rehabilitation and
reconstruction (PDRR) should be successfully implemented. The
recent natural disaster in Nepal has significant impact on the
communities in Nepal, as they are more vulnerable to disasters within
its developing context. The Nepal government has announced to
rebuild all the damaged structures of the individuals, public
institutions, infrastructures and the heritage sites devastated by the
earthquake, yet, the processes used by government and other key
recovery agencies to interact with communities are critical due to lack
of community participation which further has challenge the successful
PDRR process
Hindrances for community mobilizations
Research Question
Methodology
Sampling:
The sample for the self-
completion
questionnaire and semi
structured interviews
were selected by using
purposive sampling
(non- probability
sampling).
Logos
A number of issues limiting active participation of
community in PDRR process were identified.
major barriers to communities' participation
in Katmandu, Nepal:
• the lack of opportunities with proper
PDRR process. PDRR process was not
effective and efficient, as many needs of the
communities were not addressed.
Other challenging factors, which hinders the ability and power of the community
1. Corruption,
2. ack of accountability,
3. the lack of good management from the government,
4. Lack of information,
5. lack of manpower
6. the cast system
7. self oriented community attitude
respondent indicated that they feel responsibility towards the society, yet there are no much ways
to support or get involved with.
Most of the community members agreed that communities should come together for the
rehabilitation and reconstruction process and they are willing to be involved in the PDRR process.
possible contributions of community participation for PDRR process :
1. Lobbying: as a means of participating to decision making process and providing and accessing information
from the community to government and vice versa.
2. Encourage owner driven process in post disaster situation which is known as bottom up process
3. Improve the recognition of community capabilities and needs.
4. Empower local Action and integrate local and community leaders for effective and efficient PDRR
process.
5. Contribute to reduce corruptions (accountability and transparency) and maintain community assets.
