“To be one with others”: exploring the development of community leadership in the Rural Philippines
2022
Cloete, Elene | Dasig Salazar, Ami
Local leadership is increasingly recognised as essential to community-led development interventions. This exploratory qualitative study considers how such community leadership develops within rural Filipino communities. Informed by current definitions of community leadership, Leadership-as-Practice literature, and nine individuals’ experiences, emerging themes denote practices of capacity development, personal change, and relationship building as most significant to community leadership development. These practices happen within the context of collective action, and activities related to the identification and critical analysis of shared challenges; accessing resources communities need to address their identified challenges; management of locally owned projects; and structuring of local groups into formal organisations.
