In every mentoring and community development program that we seek, we believe that the subject of social change is the community itself. The community (soecity), with all its distinctive local characteristics and knowledge, is the party who best understands what and how to overcome the challenges that exist. Thus, from the beginning we tried to position the community as an active subject and involved in every program. We are only present as a facilitator and build awareness together towards improvement and social change.

In practice, we formed community groups in each village; work together to improve education, the economy, and the environment. One of the approaches we take to strengthen community groups in the village is through Society Capacity Building (SCB).

We do routine SCB activities every month. Aside from being a means of communication and friendship, SCB activities are also a means for exchanging ideas, improving skills and skills, providing mutual evaluations, and discussing projected projections and program improvements. Through SCB, we seek to accommodate and place the voice of the community as the most important part in overcoming certain challenges in society.

In the end, SCB is also our means to learn from the community. We try to realize that in the context of community assistance and development, the true 'hero' of social change is the community itself. Not us.

Through this approach, we see that the opportunity to create an independent society will be wide open. (*)
