| Popis: | It is important to know if a community intervention programme actually exists. The level of programme development depends on the extent of participation. The community participation can not be assessed by only using quantitative methods, there is also a need even for qualitative evaluation in order to identity details about the participation process. The purpose of this paper is to describe analysis using data coming from interviews and diaries, demonstrating both how people participate in a community intervention programme aimed at preventing accidents and why. What is the significance of the leadership in maintaining a programme in the long run? The findings show that the leader or leaders are the most important factors in maintaining a community intervention programme. The study demonstrates the necessity of a leader supporting and stimulating participation. There are also some personal reasons why people participate. The involvement is very much correlated with the personality of the programme adopters. As long as an individual can perceive personal gains from participating in the programme, it is of interest to her/him. |
