abstract: 'IntroductionA range of community engagement initiatives to advance
|
||||
|
||||
health and wellbeing are currently taking place in informal settlements
|
||||
|
||||
in low and middle income countries (LMICs), including community and
|
||||
|
||||
stakeholder meetings, use of radio, film, TV programs and other
|
||||
|
||||
information, education and communication materials (IECs) organized by
|
||||
|
||||
different stakeholders. While these initiatives tend to focus on
|
||||
|
||||
unidirectional flow of information to communities, the need to
|
||||
|
||||
incorporate initiatives focusing on bi or multi-directional flow of
|
||||
|
||||
information have been identified. Despite the extensive body of
|
||||
|
||||
literature on community engagement, the role of Community Advisory
|
||||
|
||||
Committees (CACs) in advancing health and wellbeing in informal
|
||||
|
||||
settlements is still a puzzle, occasioned by considerable ambiguity. A
|
||||
|
||||
community advisory committee is a dedicated group of volunteers to
|
||||
|
||||
support health and wellbeing needs of their community using a community
|
||||
|
||||
approach. Researchers and project implementers work in partnership with
|
||||
|
||||
CACs to successfully implement their activities within the target
|
||||
|
||||
community. MethodsIn this paper, using in-depth interviews, we document
|
||||
|
||||
the roles of CACs in advancing health and wellbeing in Korogocho and
|
||||
|
||||
Viwandani informal settlements in Nairobi, Kenya. ResultsStudy
|
||||
|
||||
participants described the role of CAC in advancing health and wellbeing
|
||||
|
||||
through education and awareness creation, advisory roles in research and
|
||||
|
||||
implementation goals, protecting community interests and acting as
|
||||
|
||||
gatekeepers and collaborators to community partners. Identified barriers
|
||||
|
||||
to achieving CAC roles include lack of finance and other field
|
||||
|
||||
resources, being labeled as organization staff and low involvement by
|
||||
|
||||
some upcoming and emerging local leaders on issues which involve the CAC
|
||||
|
||||
constituents. Enablers of CACs in their roles include possession of
|
||||
|
||||
appropriate skills and values by members; involvement of the community
|
||||
|
||||
in the selection of members, regular consultative and advisory meetings,
|
||||
|
||||
representativeness in the composition of CAC membership and knowledge
|
||||
|
||||
about the community. ConclusionWe conclude that CACs play key roles in
|
||||
|
||||
advancing health and wellbeing in informal settlements and that existing
|
||||
|
||||
CACs mechanisms and operations need to be given due consideration by
|
||||
|
||||
researchers, project implementers and local authorities right from
|
||||
|
||||
project conceptualization. CACs need recognition beyond consultations
|
||||
|
||||
and placations during research and project implementation to a veritable
|
||||
|
||||
social structure for community''s social viability and survival as well
|
||||
|
||||
as partners in development for inclusive urbanization process. While
|
||||
|
||||
CACs have contributed in advancing health and wellbeing in informal
|
||||
|
||||
settlements, there is need for a long-term strategy to optimize their
|
||||
|
||||
impact and reduce puzzles around their roles.'
