COMMUMITY EMPOWERMENT

• Re-embed economic institutions (ie markets) in a more comprehensive network of social and cultural institutions

• In addition to material values, emphasize interpersonal, community, and spiritual values ​​more.

• The concept of interdependent and comprehensive communities is quite different from the concept of individuals' communities of concern consisting of individuals who share the same ambition.

• Which community you choose to understand depends greatly on how the community is organized and the meaning of community management or cooperative management.

• Vertical collaboration: an organization that exceeds the decision level of joint management, regional governance, etc.

Cross-scale connection is difficult, but essential for success. Community management starts with the community, but that alone does not end

We often consider permission as "downward". In my experience, empowerment works in every direction. Sometimes, if you want authorization, you need to learn how to grant authority. If you understand that your license begins with you, your lifestyle will be devoted to raising your leader and boss. Every country has a Christian gossip mafia. "Have you heard of the latest things? You have heard about Hillsong, I do not know if you've heard of it ..." I heard that the pastor I think that it is the most unknown church. I did not get on the gossip train. If someone calls you to tell you the latest tragedies and rumors, you may ask yourself "Why should they tell me?"

The core of the concept of empowerment is the concept of power. The possibility of permission depends on two things. First, empowerment requires changing power. If it can not change power, if it is an essential position or person, then it is impossible to give authority and power can not be given in any meaningful way. In other words, empowerment is possible if power can change. Secondly, the concept of empowerment depends on the idea that power can be expanded. The second point is not the recognition of our power, but the experience of our shared power. To clarify these points, we will discuss what we call power first.

Empowerment is the empowerment of specific ways and forces to make specific decisions in human work and in daily life of people. Empowerment takes various forms such as empowerment of workers, empowerment of women, empowerment of youth. Empowerment is always aimed at achieving specific goals for empowerment and empowerment parties. The concept of empowerment occupied the center of the world from the late 1980s to the 1990s and was aimed at always achieving the best results with regard to political problems and other social problems.
