Community Organisation as an Approach to Community Health
Abstract
This paper deals with the effectiveness of using the community organisation approach in a community health programme. It describes a pilot project in one of the slum pockets in Bombay in India where the municipal health post workers were helped to adopt the community organisation approach to implement an immunisation programme. The various strategies used to demonstrate the usefulness of the community organisation approach, and the process of training the health staff towards adopting this approach, are described in the paper.
