Development is crucially concerned with the issues of powerlessness and disadvantage: it should
involve all members of society, and offers a practice that is part of a process of social change.

the integrity, skills, knowledge and experience, as well as equality of power, for each individual
who is involved.

Community Development aims to encourage sharing, and to create structures which give genuine
participation and involvement.

Community Development is about developing the power, skills, knowledge and experience of
people as individuals and in groups, thus enabling them to undertake initiatives of their own to
combat social, economic, political and environmental problems, and enabling them to fully
participate in a truly democratic process.

Community Development should seek to develop structures which enable the active
involvement of people from disadvantaged groups, and in particular people from Black and
Minority Ethnic groups.

The profession of community development integrates knowledge from many disciplines with
community development theory, research, teaching and practice; these important and
interdependent functions are vital in both the private and public sectors.
