DEVELOPING LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS TO KEEP UP WITH MODERN COMMUNITY PROBLEMS

Abstract

This article aimed to present methods for developing local organizations to be able to appropriately respond to community problems in the new era. In this new era, community problems were divided into four main areas: economic, social, political, and environmental. This had occurred due to changes in world society in the era of globalization and rapidly changing information technology. Developing local organizations required building cooperation in the community, changing the management model to be a public participation management system and using modern technology to create cooperation with various sectors. To solve community problems effectively, it was necessary to develop personnel to have the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to solve community problems, promoting research and innovation to develop new solutions to community problems as well, creating a database and information system to support research and innovation efficiently.
