General Information
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. That is why empowerment is viewed as the final objective for interventions. Accordingly the main idea behind T amkeen Institution for Development ( TID)(Participation, Access, Ownership) emerged from theoretical and field practices proving that actual development is only possible through working on a dialectical synthesis of development, rights-based approaches, and political and economic approaches. Development runs into the vital and effective arena of politics, and hence comes the achievement of social justice as the main and essential condition for development, which in turn takes place through “empowerment”.    
Mission and Objectives
