2. CAPITAL FORMATION for DEVELOPMENT through
COMMUNITY SAVINGS
Capital formation (through mobilization of savings)
enhances a community organization’s power to realize its full
potential. “Savings generated by individual members are the
assets of the community organization and are the first step
towards their self-reliance” (Pandey, 2002). Accumulated savings
can be used for internal credit with interest, to enable the
individual members to engage for income generating activities
while, at the same time accumulating the organization’s capital
outlay. They can as well be used for enterprise development at
the community level. Savings can serve as the basis for access to
external services, for instance, microfinance lending institution.
They can also form the basis for community organization’s
contribution to local development initiatives, which is essential in
localities where government is able to address and cater social
needs of a community where resources are very limited.

• Community Empowerment enables individuals and the

effective if a decentralized system of governance, including
fiscal decentralization is in place and functional. Social
mobilization can facilitate tripartite leadership at the local
level, making society more effective as a third and legitimate
partner in development.
Creating demands for good governance through social
mobilization must be completed with increased capacity of the
local government, to manage efficiently and effectively
respond to this demand, thus improve its governance practices.
Capacity building efforts must therefore target civil society
organizations, and to include among others are the CBO’s,
elected representatives, and government entity.
