My name is Garba Abdul, and I am 40 years old and from Nigeria. I have had over 5 years of experience working as Administrative Officer, Monitoring and Evaluation Officer, Database Administrator, Data Analyst, Documentation Officer and Assistant Programme Officer with Factor Consulting Group, Institute of Human Virology Nigeria, Achieving Health Nigeria Initiative and lately Platinum x Art Media Limited in Abuja since 2008. I currently applied for an advertised position with DFID for the Post of a Programme Officer and luckily for me I bumped across your site, which I found very inspiring and educative. I am so excited to see a platform such as the Community Tool Box that would help me in developing my capacity in Programmatic areas such as project cycle management, monitoring and evaluation, procedural and financial management, and corporate responsibility, which are my area of interests. |
Today being my first day on the Community Tool Box site, I sincerely believe it's going to be a great experience of added value to my knowledge and ability to work more effectively in my chosen field of Non-Profit. I also hope to learn from your training programmes and information on projects and community support, which will in turn help me to build my capacity towards achieving my organization goals and objective of touching the lives of the people in my immediate community and beyond. Thank you. |

We initiated and managed a Neighbourhood watch type organisation. The community realised that the matter of security is much bigger than the speedy responds to crime in general (ADT) and that the community required a wholistic approach to a local organisation combining job creation, housing, sanitation/health, education and safety. We created the HUB which combined all aspects and are in search for sustainability. Taxing the community outright was not an option but shifting the home and business security spend proved easier, however.... we found that as the safety improved, community members reduced their contributions to the point where the organisation had to put on hold. It is a catch 22. Increase crime in recent times saw a considerable interest in members organising new structures dealing with the matters of security. It is a crying shame to see how the entire cycle is restarted, loosing all value created before. |
Using the model to define a business case for a telecommunication company, local business, security service providers, local government (Education, Health and Safety) and finally... the community. |

I am a community development worker with 32 years experience firstly as a volunteer and then as a professional. I come from Northern Ireland and utilised community development principle and practices as a change management process to further develop the evolving peace as a community emerging from violent conflict and to address the multiple deprivations that many of the communities suffered in Northern Ireland I have now moved to Australia and am utilising the same principles and practices to engage the Aboriginal communities to build capacity and help reconcile with the more modern population. I have accessed Community Toolbox now for more years than I can remember, it has been a constant resource and guide for me. |
I would access the Tool Box to check if I am on the right track and use it as a check list for project management process and project specification. I also wanted to look at some templates for report writing. Over the years I have dipped into the Tool Box just to browse and give me ideas about my ideas for creating certain dynamic projects that would help me move a situation on when needed. Sometimes I assessed it to learn and read up on the many aspects of CD. |

I am hoping to create a children's museum in my community and in the doing create a children's task force. There are a lot of agencies either working independently of each other, competing and often duplicating services. I am hoping that schools, PTOs, YMCA, 4H,the various civic organizations, Scouting and other child advocacy groups,arts groups, parents and government agencies like Head Start, Social Services etc. can create a powerful force to deal with child issues. I want our area to be known for its child advocacy. Your information has been invaluable, and even though this is all in its infancy stages, I feel much more prepared for the tasks ahead because of your mission. Thank you so much! Additionally, I am a teacher in the poorest school in New York State, and have been using some of the advice to rally people to make positive changes in our school and, quite frankly, though sometimes quite exhausting, it has also been very rewarding and always exciting. Thanks again for all that you have done. |

I am trained nurse midwife and working in relief world, conflict, post conflict, development set ups in both secondary and in PHC and reproductive health. |
This tool box has assisted me to empower my counterpants to be good leaders and supervisors in service delivery, community mobilization, conducting training, writing reports. It has made me possess import information and skills that has made many admire me. I have shared with many especially those in community health and development. I have assisted some who admire to join training in community health and development though have not due to financial constrains but do refer the materials during their work. I am planning to assist some of the students who are in trainings and luck materials for reference - to buy books or get browse internet. I have decided in the future with possibility to start u a community project in my area as many people suffer. I have supported through advice the youth in my area in developing a youth association by themselves. They hare prepared to get a loan that will assist them do something as unemployment is rampant in my community. Unfortunately, they did not manage to get the loan yet as there was corruption in the Youth Enterprise development fund, eight million or billions stolen by the officials. I try to communicate to them even without being there physically. They have maintained their association despite being young and discouraged where they collect a few cents. They await the fund to be relaunched for their project. They requested me to plan to train them on development of the business before they get the loan and how to sustain it. I will use the same materials but will also use my cash to print for them the first materials from the CTB before they help themselves. This has led to improved behaviour in our community due to reduced idleness of the youth especially males. This toolbox will assist me also to integrate the health issues like HIV/AIDS in the youth association. I have used the toolbox in Merlin - UK international a relief agency in North Sudan dedicated in serving the needy Darfurians. Especially empowering the national staffs to train, supervise and conduct meetings, do community evaluation. etc, I left the organization due to family issues but I am grateful to the Community health issues they attend to in the most difficult environment. They have endured all the hardship until their cash was taken at gunpoint twice in the same week. They run a PHC and RH. We trained staffs who are able to to the work with minmal support from the expatriate. This I have seen most times whenwe relocate to Kartoum due to escalating insecurity, we leave them behind and they work tirelessly with remote support from the expat staff in Khartoum. Whenever we are the sub Base in Nyala -South Darfur, most times we were unable to move out due to much kidnapping and security threats in the area of operation at field sites. The nationas we empowered were able to move and coordinate untill the risk also involved them making them be at base too. They could also do remote management through phones, letters, and meetings at end month. If I had power to participate, my prize would go straight to them as Merlin former staff appreciating the kind of work they do in difficult situation but with transition and kind of sustainability on human resources.
