Sumarni Widodo , College of Mandala Waluya Kendari Health Science, Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi Province, Indonesia

Abstract

This paper introduces a framework for community-led health planning aimed at empowering communities to actively participate in decision-making processes related to their health. Grounded in principles of participatory governance and community engagement, the framework emphasizes collaboration between local stakeholders, healthcare providers, and policymakers. Through a systematic approach to needs assessment, priority setting, and resource allocation, the framework facilitates the development of contextually relevant and sustainable health plans tailored to the unique needs and priorities of each community. By empowering communities to take ownership of their health, this framework has the potential to improve health outcomes, strengthen health systems, and promote equitable access to healthcare services.
