  1. SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS

  2. Objectives of Situational Analysis • What is the profile of the community? • What is the problem of the community? • What is the suitable program for the community?

  3. What is your role (as an outsider and planner) in the program? • Who should be involved as the Working Committee of the program? • What is the goal of the proposed CD program?

  4. Profile of community • Community structure in terms of history, and general backgrounds such as total population • Demographic characteristics such as population groups according to age, ethnicity and gender • Social structure e.g. social institutions / organization, leadership, education

  5. Economic status, such as occupation, trade and commerce activities • Rural setting, agriculture setting, production and resource use • The availability of various types of resources (infrastructure, natural, human, mobilizable resources, and assets of community) • After knowing the profile, problems and needs are identified

  6. Based on problems and needs, program is planned in order to overcome the problem and to fulfill community’s needs • If there are many problems, the solutions should be based on prioritization • One way to do prioritization is based on needs theory of Maslow, in which problems that are related to basic needs (foods, shelter, clothing, health, income and education) should be tackled first

  7. Formation of Working Committee • Comprises representatives from the organizing institution, sponsor, subject-matter specialist, researcher, community leaders, and target groups • Goals of Working Committee • To plan activities and directions • To divide tasks according to specialization • To get legitimization from the various sections of the community

  8. To ensure meaningful participation • To have cohesive decision making about the program • To ensure success of the program because working group provides leadership E.g. Working Committee of a health program consists of: Doctors, district medical officer, specialist, nurses, researcher, VDSC members, and several individuals from the community, and business representatives

  9. What is community need? • Need is the strategy (process) how to overcome community’s problem • There are 4 ways to understand community’s needs: • Based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs i.e. basic needs must be approached first

  10. Normative need: Standards (e.g. income RM2000/ month) Gap – normative need Existing (e.g.income RM1000/ month)

  11. III. Unfelt need Felt need (unrecognized (community needs due to is aware of ignorance or the necessity) low education) Process of CD (informal education) is responsible to transform unfelt to felt need

  12. Comparative need • By comparing the characteristics of two groups of community A B Classified as Classified as having higher SES having lower SES (more advanced) (less advanced) Therefore, community B needs similar CD services e.g. receiving services e.g not receiving services
