WORKING PAPER 1 Involving older people in programme development There is agreement that involving local communities and older people in developing strategies and action plans improves the quality and effectiveness of programmes (Nichols, 1999). This process of participation and involvement requires a closer collaboration with communities and those people who are able to provide insights into local issues and needs and the appropriateness and acceptability of policies, strategies and provision. Moreover, it is often argued that health care organisations and professionals rarely consider the views of users and that the user’s perspective can differ significantly from that of the professional. Why community participation? The arguments to support greater community participation include: • poor utilisation of services because of a lack of community involvement • the economic argument that all available resources should be utilised • that health education is more effective when people are involved in actually doing things themselves • the social justice argument that people should be involved in decisions that affect them (Rifkin, 2000). Central to the concept of community participation are the key themes of community development, people’s participation and empowerment. Section 4 Active for later life | 3
