STEPS/METHODS
1. COMMUNITY PROFILING
A community profile is a date sheet that records information
on a broad range of factors (such as environmental/natural
features and management, socio-demographic
characteristics, political and economic structures, local
institutions, economic activities and livelihoods, basic
household and community facilities, and social
organization).

CESC - METHODOLOGIES AND APPROACHES OF COMMUNITY ACTION 10/14/21 5


USES OF A COMMUNITY PROFILE

1. Providing a basic information (where little is known) before starting to


work in an area;

2. Understanding the context of a community so that specific areas,


issues, and linkages can be identified and analyzed;

3. A basic understanding of a community as a whole; and

4. Information on particular areas of interest.

STEPS/METHODS
2. NEEDS ASSESSMENT
A needs assessment lets the community identify the things it
needs. It is used to determine the gaps between the community’s
present condition and its desired condition. Needs assessment can
be conducted through a survey for the following purpose:
• To document or record needs which can be used in applying funding and
advocating causes; and
• To ensure that the action you take is related to the needs of the community.

STEPS/METHODS
3. RESOURCE MOBILIZATION
Is a major sociological theory in the study of social movements which
emerged in the 1970s. It emphasizes the ability of a movement’s member
to—

• To acquire resources; and


• To mobilize people towards accomplishing the movement’s goals

Resource mobilization encompasses the appropriate, efficient and


effective use of material support, personnel support, and knowledge
support.

Social Action
In Sociology, social action, also known as “Weberian social
action” refers to an act which takes into account the actions and
reactions of the individuals (or agents). According to Max Weber,
“an action is ‘social’ if the acting individual reflects on the behavior
of the others and is thereby oriented to its course (Secher, 1962).”

STEPS/METHODS

4. RESOURCE ASSESSMENT
Resource Assessment conventionally refers to money or
finances. Resource assessment helps the community be
informed about resources (such as material resources, financial
equipment and personnel) that can be accessed to address the
needs of the community. Likewise, it also identifies the resources
that a community needs to acquire as to achieve its goals.

STEPS/METHODS
5. PARTICIPATORY ACTION PLANNING (PAP)
Participatory Action Planning involves the open and inclusive
engagement of groups and individuals in a community who have
decided to pursue a goal or solve a problem. Compared to Action
Planning that is initiated by those in authority (top to bottom
planning), Participatory Action Planning is a process that
gathers insights and ideas from community members. This
encourages community members to communicate with each
other and identify their problems and draw solutions.

STEPS/METHODS

6. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Leadership Development is another important part of the
community action process that can start at the planning
phase. Leadership is the most important resource, and it
requires due attention. Leaders emanate from a selected
group, volunteer, or individuals, known as the core working
group. Leaders ensure that essential tasks, goals and
objectives are accomplished.

7. PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
Plan Implementation refers to the phase where actual and
concrete implementation of tasks and activities are done.
These activities and tasks are meant to comprise the
specific interventions a community undertakes in solving a
problem or addressing an issue.

8. MONITORING
Monitoring – focuses on the status and progress of tasks and
activities in the course of implementation of the community
action plan. Monitoring includes procedures that allow the
tracking of the performance of project implementers and the
effect of the resources in complementing task and activities.
