These results correspond to findings from other studies (21, 26) (27), which found that uncertainty about roles and responsibilities resulted in ineffectiveness in HFGCs performance. The designs of the original studies, along with the complexity of the integrated multi-component interventions and the different approaches to community participation, make it difficult to link specific implementation strategies to specific outcomes [7, 8]. we identified five categories of implementation barriers and facilitators reported by the studies: 1) the extent to which there was an enabling and supportive Training Resources Group, Inc., 4301 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 400, Arlington, VA, 22203, USA, Institute of Health and Society, Department of Community Medicine and Global Health, Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo, P.O.

Sometimes communities had limited understanding of how to interpret and manage health data, which hindered effectiveness of community based monitoring [17,18,19]. World Health Organization, UNICEF. Factors affecting effective community participation in maternal and newborn health programme planning, implementation and quality of care interventions. What I know is that the CHMT usually involves the lower health facilities staff in the CCHP preparation but the problem is that the HFGC members are not aware of what is going on due to the fact that they have never been oriented or trained on health planning. The communities where this shift in norms occurred were also reportedly more likely to sustain their efforts to improve health and maintain mechanisms such as transport systems compared with those that remained focused on individual responsibility [23]. The communities were then asked to adapt and implement them [13,14,15,16,17,18, 22,23,24]. Report on policy and administrative training to governance structures in the Free State Province.

MeSH Participation in health planning in a decentralised health system: Experiences from facility governing committees in the Kongwa district of Tanzania. However, the Nepal youth study suggests that strengthening a communitys capacity to work together effectively without paying careful attention to developing specific health-related knowledge and skills may not result in the desired improvement of specific health outcomes, at least in the short term (presumably in a context in which community level health related knowledge and skills are not well developed) [26, 27].

Barbey et al. HHS Vulnerability Disclosure, Help Despite the various efforts aiming at ensuring that communities participate in deciding about their affairs including health issues, operationalization of such efforts is poorly done.
