R�sum� :	This note describes how the use of Action Learning Sets (ALS) methodology in Central Asia has enabled NGO leaders and staff to become effective in addressing organisational and operational challenges. This approach has contributed to the overall strengthening of their organisations. The experience of piloting ALS in Central Asia has shown it to be an invaluable tool for enabling NGO staff think through key programme issues of sustainability in self-help groups. It also helps with exploring internal organisational issues such as how to strengthen management systems and accountability. In the ever changing geopolitical context of Central Asia the ALS approach is essential for enabling NGOs to adapt and continue to be relevant and effective.

Conceptnota empowerment en activering in armoedesituaties / Katrien Steenssens

Mon, 31 May 2010 12:20:40 +0100

Conceptnota empowerment en activering in armoedesituaties [document �lectronique] / Katrien Steenssens, Auteur; Barbara Demeyer, Auteur; Tine Van Regenmortel . - Leuven : HIVA, 2009 . - 107 p.ISBN : 978-90-88360-19-0Langues : N�erlandais (dut)

Cat�gories :	ATOL_thesaurusempowerment / pauvret�
R�sum� :	We kunnen niet langer omheen de wezenlijke vraag welke kansen en valkuilen het huidige activeringsdiscours heeft voor mensen in armoede. De signalen dat er grenzen zijn aan de integratiekracht van arbeid en dat er uitsluitingsrisico�s ver-bonden zijn aan de huidige sluitende aanpak, kunnen niet worden genegeerd. De Vlaamse Minister van werk, onderwijs en vorming, Frank Vandenbroucke, gaf aan het Hoger Instituut voor de Arbeid (HIVA)-K.U.Leuven de opdracht om een geïntegreerde visie en theoretisch kader uit te werken met betrekking tot activering van maatschappelijk kwetsbare groepen, in het bijzonder mensen die in armoede leven. Als overkoepelend denk- en handelingskader voor deze vraagstelling opteren we voor het empowermentparadigma. Empowerment geeft een verbindend perspectief voor activering in armoedesituaties. Het kleurt het denken en handelen in praktijk en beleid op een specifieke manier in. Een focus op krachten en competenties van mensen staat hierin centraal en dit samen met een gedeelde verantwoordelijkheid tussen alle betrokkenen op diverse niveaus. Niet enkel het versterken van de mensen in armoede is aan de orde, ook praktijkwerkers, organisaties en beleid zijn in het geding. In het empowermentdiscours wordt niemand opgegeven, niemand krijgt het etiket van �hopeloos�, �onbereikbaar�, �onbemiddelbaar�. Bij het schrijven van deze conceptnota hanteren we twee fundamentele uitgangspunten die mee de opbouw en uitwerking van de conceptnota hebben bepaald. Wanneer we nadenken over activering van mensen in armoede doen we dit vanuit het ruimere kader van armoedebestrijding. Deze optie wordt mede ondersteund vanuit het empowermentparadigma met een bias in de aandacht voor maatschappelijk kwetsbare groepen, waaronder mensen in armoede. Ten tweede hanteren we als centrale focus doorheen de conceptnota het empowermentproces van de doelgroep. Een armoedebestrijdingsbeleid vanuit empowerment dat dit proces wil vormgeven en versterken zoomt in op de doelgroep. Om hun autonomie in ver-bondenheid te realiseren is de gedeelde verantwoordelijkheid van alle andere actoren hierbij wenselijk en noodzakelijk. Vandaar ook de noodzaak van de creatie van empowerende condities op de verschillende maatschappelijke niveaus om dit te kunnen realiseren.
