SOLIDARITY IN
GLOBAL & NATIONAL
DEVELOPMENT MELC •Recognize the importance of solidarity in promoting national and global community development. LESSON OBJECTIVE: •The learners will be able to recognize the importance of solidarity in promoting national and global community development. •1. What is the importance of solidarity in community development? •2. Give the characteristics of short term and long term community projects. SOLIDARITY •Solidarity is about regarding our fellow human beings justly and respecting who they are as persons. SOLIDARITY •A person is in connection with other people, with the society, and with the environment. SOLIDARITY •A person has to relate responsibility and act in solidarity with others and the whole humanity. ANDREW MASON • A community not simply as assemblage of people brought together by their common experience, practice, and shared values, but also as a collective body bonded together by solidarity.- (RELIGIOUS PERSPECTIVE) •Solidarity is about treasuring our fellow human beings and regarding who they are as people of God ST. JOHN PAUL II •“Building a Community that empowers everyone to attain their full potential through each of us respecting each other’s dignity, rights, and responsibilities.” •SOLIDARITY IS MORE THAN A UNION. •Solidarity is about more than Unions. •Its about working with people on the things that matter to them. • It is about removing the boundaries that prevent us from working together. • It is about believing that what hurts my neighbor also hurts myself, that when I need a neighbor I have no right to expect help if I have not first helped others. •It is both an emotion and a goal, a process and a state of being. •SOLIDARITY IS DEFYING BOUNDARIES. •These boundaries that get in the way can be race, nation, gender, wealth, indeed anything upon which segregation can be created. •First, that people on one side cannot experience the privileges that are largely arbitrarily awarded to people on the other side. • Second, that those on the latter side cannot appreciate on the first side, and therefore feel they are justified in their current position. • Third, it creates resentment, often both ways. •SOLIDARITY IS FROM COMMUNICATION TO ACTION. • Solidarity can flow from communication, but it requires action to become a real and present force. • Without Solidarity, without considering the needs of the other, creating a more civilized world will be a challenge.
