What is Community?
![Page 25: Communities”](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012409/616a4d0a11a7b741a35100cc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Community: ‘A group of people with something in common who consider they have some connection. Community suggests some form of commonality, whether it be geographic (e.g., neighbourhoods), interest (e.g. communities of practice), a community of identity (e.g.the gay and lesbian community) or virtual (e.g.online communities). Community also suggests boundaries (often self-defined) creating the sense that some people are part of a community and some are not’.

‘”Engagement” is used as a generic, inclusive term to describe the broad range of interactions between people. It can include a variety of approaches, such as one-way communication or information delivery, consultation, involvement and collaboration in decision-making, and empowered action in informal groups or formal partnerships.

Concept and Importance of Social Capital
‘Social capital consists of the stock of active connections among people: the trust, mutual understanding and shared values and behaviours that
bind the members of human networks and communities and make cooperative
action possible’.
(Cohen and Prusak)
![Page 30: Communities”](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012409/616a4d0a11a7b741a35100cc/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
“Social capital should be the pre-eminent and most valued form of any capital as it provides the basis on which we build a truly civil society.
Without our social bases we cannot be fully human. Social capital is as vital as
language for human society.”
(Eva Cox- Australian social commentator, ABC Boyer
Lectures 1995)

Lyda Hanifan
State Supervisor of Rural Schools in West Virginia in a 1916 article gave us the first use and definition of the term “social capital”. He was advocating the importance of community involvement for successful rural schools and invoked the idea of ‘social capital’ to explain why.
![Page 32: Communities”](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012409/616a4d0a11a7b741a35100cc/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
‘Social capital is those tangible substances that count for most
in the daily lives of people, namely good will, fellowship,
sympathy, and social intercourse among the individuals and
families who make up a social unit’.
Lyda Judson Hanifan

Value of Appreciative Inquiry
Appreciative Inquiry is a conversation methodology that shift from
deficent- based analysis and planning – “what’s wrong?; who is to blame?; why have we failed?;” to a strength-
based model of action research –“what works around here?; what might be? What should be?; lets
innovate what will be?”

SOCRATES (500BC) - ‘Our youth today now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority, disrespect for older people. Children now days are tyrants, they no longer rise when elders enter the room, they contradict their parents, they chatter before company, gobble their food and tyrannise their teachers. They have execrable manners, flout authority, have no respect for their elders. What kind of awful creatures will they be when they grow up.’
ARISTOTLE (300 BC) - ‘When I look at the younger generation, I despair for the future of civilisation.’

‘Educationally, and from the point of view of efficient use of resources, it would make good sense to have the schools as the nucleus of a community centre. Joint planning, and even
conduct, of schools as educational, health, welfare, cultural and sporting agencies could provide additional facilities for the school, allow the community access to its resources, and thus
generally increase in fruitfulness. In this way, a link could be forged between school, family, peer
group, and the society at large.’

Dads Groups are formed through schools, workplaces or community groups and aim to be fun, interactive and supportive. They provide a community of like-minded Dads to discuss and address the importance of being an involved and effective Father or Father figure to create better outcomes for their kids. The key role of the Dads Group is to provide leadership and direction to the group of Dads, Fathers, Father figures, colleagues and support people, including Mums, and host activities within the community. Popular activities include biannual barbecues, event days, camping events and Dad catch-ups.
