    Activity 14- Community Action Plan

    A community action plan is a road map for implementing community change


    by identifying and specifying WHAT will be done, WHO will do it and HOW it will be
    done. In other words, the action plan describes what the community wants to
    accomplish, what activities are required during a specified timeline and what
    resources (money, people and materials) are needed to be successful. The
    community action plan shall become a framework for implementing sustainable
    sanitation and water management activities that are decided by the community
    itself. It is important to emphasize that the community members should be the main
    actors in preparing their own community action plan regarding sanitation and water
    management.
    The community action plan should become a framework for implementing the
    activities that are decided by the community itself. The focus is more on the process
    of understanding and overcoming problems in order to rebuild the people's lives
    rather than just physical development such as building houses, providing clean
    water or toilet facilities. It is important to understand that the community should be
    the main actors in preparing their own community action plan. Producing the action
    plan helps people to take realistic and concrete steps toward participatory
    development planning in order to improve the sanitation and water system. By
    bringing everyone together to think and discuss about resources and group
    involvement, this tool increases awareness about the skills and resources already
    available in the community.

    Part I.
    Answer the following questions.
    1. What is a community action project?

    A community action plan is a road map for implementing community change by


    identifying and specifying WHAT will be done, Who will do it and HOW it will be
    done. In other words, the action plan describes what the community wants to
    accomplish, what activities are required during a specified timeline and what
    resources (money, people and materials) are needed to be successful. The

    sanitation and water management activities that are decided by the community
    itself. It is important to emphasize that the community members should be the main
    actors in preparing their own community action plan regarding sanitation and water
    management.

    2. How do you write a community action plan?

    Community Profile
    Characteristics of the municipality , identified problems and needs
    Community Action Plan
    Actions to be taken , schedule and the division of tasks
    Resources
    Where to go for financial support, get advice, educational material
    Network
    Contact list of key group , government departments and others supporting

    3. What are the general principles of community action plans?

     It is a process for action; not a blueprint for future development.


     The solution for problems comes from the community itself and the role of the
    facilitator is more on formulating the problems in the community.
     It is not determined from outside the community but grows/emerges from the
    affected community.
     Avoid activities such as lecturing or teaching the people; but concentrate more
    on workshops as a form of discussion with the community.
     Guarantee that all relevant groups participate in the activities, particularly the
    women and other community groups that are often forgotten.
     Facilitate input from all groups; do not allow one group or leader to dominate
    the discussion.
     Remember that one issue might appear to be not very important for one
    group, but is important for another group.
     Avoid too many pictures and text; it is better to absorb and remember several
    points rather than make a long list.
     Use simple language and avoid difficult terms.
     Make the material as simple as possible.

    4. What are the key elements of a Community Action Plan?

     GOAL
    This is what the organization wishes to achieve from the community
     OBJECTIVES
    Objectives are what behavior you need members to perform in order to
    achieve this goal
     STRATEGY
    The strategy includes the emotions you will amplify in order to influence
    people to perform this behavior
     TACTICS
    Tactics are the specific action steps you will execute to amplify these
    emotions
     PLAN
    A plan (or action plan) identifies who is going to execute those tactics, what
    is required to execute those tactics, and when those tactics will be executed
     IMPROVE
    This is the process of measuring what happened, analyzing why it
    happened, and making continuous improvements

    5. What are the steps in formulating a Community Action Plan?

    Opening: Introduction and Socialization


    Social and Environmental Mapping
    Identifying the Problems, Needs, and Resource Potential
    Determining the Priority in Problems and Needs
    Formulating the Choice of Formulating the Choice of Action
    Formulating the Implementation Plan
    Formulating and Evaluation Plan
    Implementation, and Evaluation

    6. What are the considerations for completing a Community Action Plan?


    Partnerships among people.
     In order to accomplish the goals and objectives in the plan how to improve
    the sanitation and water system of your area, many people will have to be integrated
    and have to fully participate in doing the work. It is important that the involved
    people develop good relations and trust among each other

    Budget
    Financial resources are usually necessary to develop and carry out a
    community action plan for sanitation and water management.

    Close alignment with the community’s mission and vision


    The vision that was developed during the community assessment process
    reflects where the community wants to be headed. The mission is the purpose of
    your group. During the writing of the action plan, the writers work from the vision
    and the mission to identify several major goals (priority or strategic) that must be
    reached. These, in total, work toward the vision and the mission.

    A feasible plan does not have to be “perfect”


     More important than a “perfect” action plan for sanitation and water
    management is one that is feasible for the community partnership to complete
    within a reasonable period of time. The action plan is a working document that can
    be reviewed as the group implements it. It is a starting point that people can
    continue to update and revise as community groups learn over time and through
    their evaluation, how to accomplish their goals.

    7. What are the advantages and disadvantages in formulating a Community


    Action Plan?

    Advantages

    Strong participation of the local community regarding sanitation and water issues
    By implementing community action plans, the solution for problems comes from the
    community itself and hence considers primarily their needs and priorities
    Guarantees that all relevant groups participate in the activities, particularly the
    women and other community groups that are often forgotten
    Guarantees the acceptance and support of the solution by the local community

    Disadvantages

    Requires time and resources to integrate all the relevant stakeholders in the process
    Finding consensus among all the community members can take ages or might be
    impossible
    Community action plans are not going to be developed without strongly motivated
    and encouraged local community members
