This chapter will work assiduously to influence a holistic, radical and fundamental environmental and natural resource responsibility, social, cultural, economic, humanitarian, democratic and political development attitudinal and mind-set change which helps to provide the leverage for micro level active citizenship, social, economic and political inclusion. Mechanisms that have been adopted to achieve this include constant and consistent training, capacity building, information dissemination, public education, sensitization and awareness raising covering critical and diverse issues confronting people, communities and society.
These issues include self-esteem and confidence building, climate change, environmental and natural resource conservation, business, entrepreneurial, leadership, social, economic, humanitarian, democratic and political development. The ultimate goal is to activate individual, group and community self-determination, actualization, development and improvement.
