Background:

“Animation is that stimulus to the mental, physical, and emotional life of people in a given area which moves them to undertake a wider range of experiences through which they find a higher degree of self-realization, self-express, and awareness of belonging to a community which they can influence (quoted by Simpson 1989:54 referred in Smith, 1999) We come up with this course to address the “research-based” needs of development workers and managers for community active participation in development.
