The economic development of community Definition The process of creating wealth through the mobilization of human, financial, capital, physical and natural resources to generate marketable goods and services. The economic developer’s role is to influence the process for the benefit of the community through expanding job opportunities and the tax base. The purpose of community development is to produce assets that may be used to improve the community, and the purpose of economic development is to mobilize these assets to benefit the community GROWTH VS DEVELOPMENT Growth by itself could be either an improvement or a detriment to a community. For instance, a facility that paid very low wages might open in an area and the population and overall size of the economy might increase, but per capita, incomes might fall, and the quality of life might suffer. Such growth could bring more congestion, pollution, and other negative externalities without a commensura

Community visioning Many communities begin their visioning project by determining the vision or desired future. Others look at where the community currently finds itself before identifying the desired future. Both approaches have produced quality results in visioning projects around the country.  However, starting with the vision statement is preferred because it sets a positive tone for the process from the very start. This process convenes residents holding very diverse perspectives who come into the process with personal agendas.  By starting the process with the development of visual themes, participants recognize early on that despite the different views, there are many areas on which they all agree. Experiencing such a “win” early on in the process sets the tone for participants to work toward agreement throughout the process . A vision is a “stretch”   In spring 1961, President John F. Kennedy, seeking increased funding for space exploration, described

Self-Development across the Life Span A.       Developmental Changes in Self-Descriptions   In this sense, we have been reviewing evidence applicable to the development of the I . We have yet to consider, however, the development of the ME. A focus on the ME would lead us to ask: How do people’s thoughts about themselves change with age?   For example, do 6-year olds think of themselves differently than 16-year olds? Research in this area suggests the following developmental trends. 1.        Early childhood (ages 2-6) Gender and age appear to be the first characteristics applied to the self. By age two, most children correctly identify themselves as a boy or a girl, although they may not be fully aware that gender is constant until several years later. At this age, children also tend to describe themselves in terms of concrete, observable characteristics (e.g., I have brown hair; I have an older brother) and typical behaviors and activities (e.g., I play

History of Community Development Programmes in India HISTORY OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT' The concept of community development in India was initiated well before independence. Even during the struggle for independence, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, considerable attention was given to rural development and reconstruction.   Gandhi advocated for communal harmony, economic equality, social equality, recovery from alcohol and narcotics addiction, promotion of ‘Khadi’ (hand-woven cloth) and village industries, sanitation, health care, education and empowerment of women. The aim was to generate gainful employment in rural areas and to improve the quality of life that would ultimately lead to community development. After the independence of India in 1947, community development assumed higher priority.   In 1948, a pilot community development project was launched through the Etawah Project in Uttar Pradesh. Community Development (CD) was the first major progra

Sustainable Community Development This refers to a stage of development, during which the community is able to meet its present and future needs with its own resources. The primary needs of a community are poverty eradication and community organization. The satisfaction of community needs and aspiration is a primary objective of sustainable community development. For sustainable community development to be achieved, a number of things need to be considered. These include: • standardizing the consumption of resources for long-term sustainability; • creating an environment for equitable access to resources for a better quality of life; • minimizing the demographic dividend (A demographic dividend is the freeing up of resources for a country's economic development and the future prosperity of its populace as it switches from an agrarian to an industrial economy) in a community to explore resources in optimum and reasonable way. Sustainable development emph

Steps for Initiating Community Development Acquire Knowledge and Execute Each community has its own special characteristics which make it different from another community. The differences may take the form of availability and utilization of resources, culture, attitude, behavior and social development needs. The following are the major steps for initiating community development. Step 1: Goal setting Goal setting is the first step in the initiation of community developmental activities. It comes before planning and implementation. During goal-setting, the CDW should consider the socio, economic, cultural and demographic aspects of the community. In addition, they should also look at the availability of resources like manpower, planners and implementers. The goal should be “simple” in nature. Step 2: Understanding the people in the community Before planning and implementing a community development program, it is important to learn about the people in th

The child development programme may be viewed as a support service for families with children from birth to age four. It has also been found that the ability of parents to support and foster the healthy and lifelong development of their children is enhanced by the provision of early intervention resources. Children’s should be given a proper and valuable fou
