Neighbourhood health forums: local democracy at work
World Health Forum
|January 1, 1991
Abstract:
People in the North Staffordshire district in the United Kingdom have planned and implemented a community service project designed to increase local participation in health matters. Neighbourhood Forums meet to examine local needs and make decisions involving available resources and services. Self-observation by the Forums has revealed a potential for initiating positive change. Such interventions are applicable in other communities worldwide.
