-The capacity building and empowerment thus chosen, should measure up to the community. In community matters, golden rule is that that the community the bests, if concerns are taken to involve them in their own problem-solving processes. The change agents must take time and energy, and develop their skills in assisting them with gathering and considering information that they can use in offering realistic methods for planning and harnessing their full potential.
