Dear readerAs mayor of Monrovia I was confronted
with the Ebola outbreak just after my
induction into office in March 2015
One of the crucial methods we used
in dealin983143 with the situation was the
involvement of local community leaders
We went into the communities spoke to
block leaders and trained them on how
to inform their people re983143ardin983143 aware-
ness and prevention Our solid waste
staff community service department and
environmental health department also
assisted in spreadin983143 the information
I am convinced that this comprehensive
local approach is most effective in 983143ettin983143
thin983143s done for people at all local levels
in cities and villa983143es It is important that
communities take ownership for their
welfare whenever there is a crisis
As local authorities we can support them
in creatin983143 structures to put forward their
needs and for them to 983143et benefits such
as clean water toilets and clinics
ldquoIt is important that communitiestake ownership for their welfarewhenever there is a crisisrdquo

My expectations
ldquoIn my work as a development officer
at the department of a983143riculture of
Parepare Municipality I have a lot of
contact with different ethnic 983143roups
and reli983143ions I also work closely
to983143ether with local farmers who area minority 983143roup and are often not
involved in participation processes
By joinin983143 this course I hope to 983143et
new ideas about how to chan983143e the
publicrsquos perception about minorities
in their communities how a983143riculture
can be a part of society and brin983143
communities to983143ether and how local
983143overnment can stimulate and develop
citizen participationrdquo
After the trainin983143
ldquoI learned that the best way to encour-
a983143e citizen participation is to make
citizens your partner listen what they
need and involve them from the first
instance Furthermore the course
provided a 983143ood opportunity to learnfrom the other participants The staff
and facilitators were very professional
The practical and active approach in
the trainin983143 inspired and motivated
me to contribute to the development
process in my countryrdquo

My expectations
ldquoIn my work as a development officer

contact with different ethnic 983143roups

publicrsquos perception about minorities
in their communities how a983143riculture
can be a part of society and brin983143
communities to983143ether and how local
983143overnment can stimulate and develop
citizen participationrdquo
After the trainin983143
ldquoI learned that the best way to encour-
a983143e citizen participation is to make
citizens your partner listen what they
need and involve them from the first
instance Furthermore the course
provided a 983143ood opportunity to learnfrom the other participants The staff
and facilitators were very professional
The practical and active approach in
the trainin983143 inspired and motivated
me to contribute to the development

After the trainin983143
