ARE YOU, OR HAVE YOU, USED A 'DOMAINS' APPROACH TO BUILD COMMUNITY
EMPOWERMENT (OR COMMUNITY CAPACITY)?

The 'domains' of empowerment enable communities to better organise
themselves, both socially and structurally, towards gaining more control
of their lives (and health). Empowerment is achieved through strategic
planning to improve each 'domain', where a need has been identified by
the members of a community.  This is termed the 'domains approach' and
has been used to build empowered communities in Asia, Africa, North
America and the Pacific.

I am compiling a database of the experiences of using the 'domains'
approach, parallel-tracking in health promotion and the spider-web
configuration for the visual representation of community empowerment.

I would be very interested to hear from people who have experiences of
using these approaches.
