Community Partication and Challenges

Abstract

The community participation is very important towards the development of health care in the community which helps in solving health issues that derails the community, the community participation and challenges have resulted in maladministration, fraud and corruption which culminatesin failure to deliver effective and efficient services. This impacts negatively on the lives of the citizenry because they are forced to live in untenable conditions due to poor service delivery. an independent community office or body should be established to enforce community participation and members of the council be coerced to consult and account to their communities of the circumstances in the municipality. this could enhance transparency and accountability among municipalities and provide an impetus in service delivery. Consequently, public participation could be revitalised in rural and urban areas where community participation is neglected.
