Western Pacific Community Engagement Toolkit

The aim of this toolkit is to provide practical guidance to support community engagement for health in the Western Pacific Region. Community engagement is an approach to addressing health-related issues and promoting well-being. It involves building relationships and working together to develop more effective health interventions, programs, services, and policies and to empower communities as key actors for health.

This toolkit provides support throughout the community engagement process. It outlines questions to encourage dialogue, recommends activities, and provides examples and links to tools to support learning and action in your country and community. Click on any of the circles for guidance in implementing each aspect of community engagement: Engage, Assess, Plan, Act, Evaluate, and Communicate & Celebrate.

Check out our Orientation pages for more information on the purpose of this toolkit and resources for community engagement.
