Tamkeen Institution for Development - TID مؤسسة تمكين للتنمية "Participation, Access, Ownership"

Empowerment and Protection of Children
(8)

Development practitioners seek the enhancement of strategies aiming at the empowerment of the community to demand its rights. Hence, empowerment becomes a strategy and an aim for individual-based civil society initiatives. Even though a well-known term, “empowerment” has various definitions. “Community empowerment” can be defined as: people’s ability to confidently make choices and take actions on

their own behalf from a position of economic, political and social strength.

“Tamkeen Institution envisions empowerment as the ability of people to access the available resources and to make use of these resources freely and jointly. This means the liberation of social groups from any form of existing exploitation, which may prevent them from access to decent living, self-achievement and well-being”


Tamkeen seeks to make the change in the field of development through promoting the participation of marginalized categories, especially children and their ownership for decisions that are related to their destiny. In addition, Tamkeen seeks to activate the same model (Participation, Access, Ownership) through providing technical and institutional support for the actors in the field of children’s rights, including civil society organizations, shelter/day-care institutions and government organizations.
