What can be the reason for the reduction from September to December? What are the common health problems in the community? How vulnerable are children to these conditions compared to adults? What could be some of the possible causes of these problems? What can be done to reduce them? The community members, led by the health committee, the CHO and members of the sub-district health teams will all use this data to identify and address health problems in the community. Unit Summary In this unit we discussed community surveillance and its importance. We identified the types of diseases, especially epidemic diseases that a community needs to keep constantly under surveillance. We talked about how you, as a volunteer, have to be informed about common diseases that can affect your community. We discussed how to collect data and the tools used in data collection. We also had practical sessions on how to analyse data. We did this by trying our hands on simple calculations based on the data that we collected. We also identified various ways for making the information generated from the data known to the people concerned. The importance of record keeping and how to mobilise your community to initiate action were also discussed at length. 113
Module 2 Community Mobilisation and Tools Unit 3 Community Mobilisation and Participation 114 Introduction Have you as volunteers ever organised a community activity such as a durbar? How did you get all the people involved? The process of informing people about the activity and getting them to take part in it is called community mobilisation and participation. We need the participation of the community members and other people for a programme to succeed. These people are known as stakeholders. They contribute to the development of the community in various ways. The roles that each stakeholder plays will also be discussed. This unit focuses on community mobilisation and participation. As a volunteer you need to understand what community, community mobilisation, and participation mean. In addition, it will help you understand the stages involved in community mobilisation. This unit will help you identify the various methods used in community mobilisation and participation. The importance of knowing more about your community is discussed. Finally, you will learn skills that will help you become an effective community mobiliser. Unit Objectives Unit Topics By the end of this unit the volunteers will be able to: 1.
