A key element in community planning is to involve the affected locals and communities in the development of a shared vision of the future and of a strategy to make sure that it actually reflects the community\u2019s needs, requirements and views. <a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Purpose of the activity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">If decision concerning a change in some local issue is required in a settlement or in a part of it, it is of utmost importance to widen the \u2018usual\u2019 group of decision-makers (local government or other people in power). Depending on the nature of the change and the sphere of people affected, these people may be made direct participants in the process. This may be a more neutral local issue (e.g. timetable changes in the community transport, shifting the bus stop, a wish to build a playground, etc.) or a more comprehensive one, e.g. municipal development plans or a decision in a regional\/national issue<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This gives the affected community responsibility and a voice to represent their interests, and enables such information to be integrated in the process that only those affected may have. The normal group of decision-makers is thus indeed extended: members of the local community, or at least their direct representatives, will be invited to join the experts and people in power.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This involvement may be a bottom-up initiative from local citizens and representatives of the civil society, or can occur top-down, on behalf of the organizations and institutions authorized to make decisions. Such an involvement may be launched by common sense, locally adopted practices, initiatives of the locals, or even by legal obligations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Key terms<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>involvement, participation ladder, participation, involvement of the affected<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Conditions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>personal:<\/strong> community developer\/community organizer, active, acting members, a moderator\/facilitator chairing the meeting<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>material:<\/strong> community space (e.g. community house, school, library), stationery, board, post-it blocs, etc.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>financial:<\/strong> room rental fee (if needed)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Further:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">the opportunity should arise at the right stage (i.e. at the beginning of the process)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">equality of members, real rights for those affected<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">the opportunity of mutual information (transparency)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">all involved need to take part in a learning and socialisation process \u2013 i.e. they need to be empowered for community planning.
