| Abstract |
Community Capacity Building —
a strategy to “build sustainable skills,
resources, and commitments to health promotion
in (various) settings and sectors (in order
to) prolong and multiply health gains many
times over.“ Capacity building, like
the related concepts of community development
and empowerment, is about increasing the capability
of people to articulate and address community
health issues and to overcome barriers to
achieve improved outcomes in the quality of
their life. |
