Hi Geoff,<br />
<br />
Thank you very much for your easy share. I have explore both link you gave (resource and youtube), those give me more understanding about this issues. We are really inspired with what you said: A group of people with diverse experiences are likely to tackle a new situation better than a single "expert."<br />
<br />
Geoff, in your experiences, when you start a malaria competence process, did you bring 'an expert' with you? Or probably you or one of you were an expert?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Hi Chandra<br />
<br />
I often challenge the notion of an expert. We all have experience of something and collectively we have expertise. A so-called expert is likely to have lots of different experiences and access to expertise which she or he can apply to new situations. A group of people with diverse experiences are likely to tackle a new situation better than a single "expert."<br />

Hi Chandra<br />

I often challenge the notion of an expert. We all have experience of something and collectively we have expertise. A so-called expert is likely to have lots of different experiences and access to expertise which she or he can apply to new situations. A group of people with diverse experiences are likely to tackle a new situation better than a single "expert."<br />
<br />
So to TB or Malaria Competence. There is a need to access knowledgeable people to construct a self assessment framework, and in the case of Malaria this has already been done and is being used successfully in several countries. So you can use what is already available. You'll find it on the <a href="http://www.communitylifecompetence.org/en/94-resources" target="_blank">resources page</a> of the website. Indocompetence has experience in facilitating self assessment sessions for a number of issues so you don't need an expert to do that.<br />
<br />
My suggestion is to use the frameworks that exist and facilitate self assessment session, firstly on yourselves, and then with a number of communities. The river diagram is useful for showing whether there is scope to share between communities, or if no one has high levels of competence then that is the time to bring in someone who has the knowledge to help all communities build competence. To remind you:<br />
