Ortaklıkla Toplumsal Sorun Çözme: Toplum Uygulamasını Destekleyen Bir Model ve Öneriler

Bu çalışmada toplum işbirliğini desteklemek için kapsamlı bir model önerilmiştir. Önerilen bu toplum işbirliği modeli dört bileşenden oluşmaktadır. İlk olarak, model toplum merkezli bir yaklaşımı temel alır. İkinci olarak, model resmi bir karar verme sürecinden oluşur. Üçüncü olarak, modelde tasvir edilen işbirliği, çeşitli roller ile ilgili davranışların performansına bağlıdır. Son olarak, işbirlikçi toplum sorunu çözme sürecindeki aktörler ustaca yönetilebilir bir sistemden oluşmaktadır. Ortaklıkla problem çözmeye yönelik mevcut yaklaşımların bazı sınırlılıkları bulunmaktadır. Bu sınırılıklar yaklaşımların bölünmüş olmaları, sınırlı bilgiye dayalı olmaları, diğer çabalarla çakışması, toplum bireyleriyle kısıtlı bağlantı sağlaması, yeniliklere açık olmaması, toplulumun koşullarına bağlı olmayan yanıtlar üretmesi ve iyi geliştirilmemiş mevcut araç ve prosedürler olarak sıralanabilir. Bu çalışmada sunulan işbirliğine dayalı problem çözme modelinin mevcut birçok sorunun daha etkili bir biçimde çözülmesine yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışmada önerilen yaklaşımın potansiyeli, mevcut işbirlikçi toplum sorunu çözme süreçlerinin eksiklikleri ve bu eksikliklerin nasıl ele alınması gerektiği ile bu modelin toplum işbirliği pratiğine yönelik etkileri tartışılmıştır.

Collaborative Community Problem Solving: A Model and Recommendations to Support Community Practice

A comprehensive model for supporting community collaboration is proposed. The authors describe a modelof community collaboration that consists of four components. First, the model is based on a communitycentered approach. Second, the model consists of a formal decision making process. Third, collaboration asdepicted in the model hinges on the performance of several roles related behaviors. Finally, actors in thecollaborative community problem solving process comprise a system that must be skillfully managed.Current approaches to community problem solving has some limitations. Some of these limitations aredescribed as fragmented, overlap with other efforts, based on limited information, limited connection tocommunity residents, limited innovation, responses not tied to community conditions, and existing tools andprocedures are not well developed related to collaborative community problem solving. The potential of theapproach described in this article to address limitations of current collaborative community problem solvingprocesses as well as implications for community practice are discussed.
