To eliminate these misgivings and doubts, the urban community development department sent several women's groups to the factory, which has increased the acceptance of the food many-fold. Too much specialization has crept in. There is ample evidence of the ill effects of such segmental approches and sectorial development, where efforts are confined only to water, or health, or nutrition, or malaria eradication, etc., forgetting the ultimate goal of total community welfare. Adequate opportunities must be provided democratically for every community to think, act, and accomplish goals with the people's participation. If properly harnessed, this vast human resource can be an invaluable asset, vital for a country's overall prosperity.
Money is a scarce commodity, and it has to be spent with prudence.
Extensive, and if possible total, coverage that reaches the poor should be the ultimate goal. Illiteracy, an unhealthy environment, and poverty tend to erase all the benefits that the administration desires to extend through health, nutrition, or other such services in isolation. A comprehensive approach is desirable with a suitable coordinating agency, committed to its task. To have maximum impact, an agency must devise ways to keep the community members as key participants in the total undertaking, offering necessary assistance and help at crucial points. The procedures must be simple, flexible, and spontaneous.
