It is a discipline that is all about change. Many think that there must be a development. I personally agree but community Development takes place where the change that has being impacted.
Community Development is therefore the planned/scheduled evolution in the community in all aspects of life. It can be economic, social cultural, political or even religious. Basically, Community development is a planned structured intervention that gives communities greater control over the conditions that affect their daily lives. However, this may not be their solution, but it helps them build up their confidence to tackle such problems as effectively in future.
For community development program to take place there must be the society and the development practitioners. For development to take place there must be a very good and health relationship between the Practitioners and the community at large. This is because community work works at the level of local groups and organizations rather than with individuals or families. The range of local groups and organizations representing communities at local level constitutes the community sector
