Community Mobilization
Community mobilization is a capacity-
building process through which community
individuals, groups, or organizations PLAN,
CARRY OUT, and EVALUATE activities on
a participatory and sustained basis to
improve their health and other needs, either
on their own initiative or stimulated by
others.
“As an individual I could do
nothing. As a group we
could find a way to solve
each other’s problems”.
