The commitment of the community to a project is one of the first key for the success of the project. It is therefore useful to take a closer look at commitment, what it is, what you can do to help people develop and maintain it and how you can recognise it.

 

For communities to develop and sustain commitment the following is needed:

• the absence of heavy political rivalries.

 ===Type of commitment===

Commitment is often expressed in terms of people’s willingness to participate in meetings, to come to a consensus, to invest time or money in management of the system. In a heterogeneous community it is not very realistic to think that all people have the same level of commitment . Traditional, religious or political leaders can play an important role in creating commitment. This can either be extremely helpful and stimulating for management or hamper it.
