For Participatory mode of decision making in social welfare organizations opportunities should be provided to :

  • A.Lower echelon/section of the Society
  • B.Upper echelon/section of the Society
  • C.Social Institution
  • D.Welfare Institution

Answer: A

Opportunities should be given to the Lower echelon/section of the Society.

Participatory decision making means involving those who are usually left out: frontline staff and, above all, the people the organisation serves. In social welfare these are the poorer and weaker sections, whose needs the services exist to meet. Their participation makes decisions more relevant and gives them a voice and a sense of ownership.

The upper echelon already holds decision-making power, so giving it more is not participation. Social and welfare institutions are organisations, not the people whose participation the idea is about.
