It is important for the National Society and the community to reach an agreement on responsibilities. Below are some suggestions.

 

The National Society (and/or its resilience team) is responsible for: 

​

• Providing information to the community about its mandate, activities and funding sources.

• Enabling the community’s leaders to understand resilience concepts and use tools and approaches, accompanying them through their learning process.

• Introducing the community’s leaders to external stakeholders, including government, in support of strengthening the community’s resilience.

• Supporting the community to establish a community resilience team that will participate in all meetings.

• Maintaining regular and honest communication with the community’s leaders and wider membership.

• Ensuring the process is inclusive through an effective participation mechanism.
