Organizing does two central things to seek to rectify the problem of power imbalance - it builds a permanent base of people power so that dominant financial and institutional power can be challenged and held accountable to values of greater social, environmental and economic justice; and, it transforms individuals and communities, making them mutually respectful co-creators of public life rather than passive objects of decisions made by others. -Mike Miller, Organize Training Center Basics Long history in many countries, not just in the USA Can include many types of activities Direct action is one type of community organizing Direct action organizing has roots in rights movements Community organization is that process by which the people...organize themselves to 'take charge' of their situation and thus develop a sense of being a community together. It is a particularly effective tool for the poor and powerless as they determine for themselves the actions they will take to deal with the essential forces that are destroying their community and consequently causing them to be powerless. -Reverend Robert Linthicum, World Vision International Community organizing and DAO aims to: Win concrete improvements in people¡Çs lives. Make people aware of their own power. Alter relations of power Key elements: Collective action by those directly affected. Only the people affected can make change happen. Changing basic power relationships the only way to change conditions. Underlying Assumptions Government needs to be accountable to the people People have the right to speak or act on social and political issues. (freedom of speech, assembly, thought etc.) People need to keep the government in check. |
