32. Community Action Planning (CAP)
• CAP is a tool or a technique to stimulate planning processes
with active involvement of the residents of a particular
neighbourhood.
• The objective is to stimulate and empower the populations
to identify and prioritize development interventions
relating to reconstruction (shelter, water and sanitation,
legal assistance/land rights, community managed disaster
risk reduction as a minimum) and
• socio-economic development in order for them to receive
assistance in implementation of these interventions.
• The result is a neighbourhood plan that contains the
summary of priority actions for reconstruction.
