A thriving community is like a successful football team. Each member has a special job, yet each helps the others with their jobs. Overall there is a captain who guides the other players and is respected by them… and because of team play, the total is greater than the sum of the individuals. If you don’t believe it, look at a bee hive, or an ant hill, or a pride of lions hunting together. Among humans, there are lots of communities; not all successful. Some are businesses, others villages, hospitals, schools or countries. These downloads are to help you build your team into a successful community. Good luck!
* Also available as a series of (smaller) webpages A special thanks for help with this page goes to the British charity, TearFund. In addition to their ‘Pillars Guides’ featured here, TearFund produces the development Magazine Footsteps. Published quarterly, each issue concentrates on a different aspect of community development, including Water, Health, Education, Nutrition and a host of other topics. To see (and download) past issues of Footsteps – and learn how to receive future issues - go to http://tilz.tearfund.org/Publications/ At the same web address you will find a series of books under the ‘Roots’ banner, to help development workers.
