Abstract

Objectives: This qualitative study describes how the multi-year public health program in Seoul for participatory community health was launched and implemented.
Methods: Data were collected through program documentation reviews and interviews with people involved in program development and implementation. Twenty individuals representing different sectors (e.g., city office, local public health center, community-based organizations) and roles (e.g., planner, advisor, and implementer) in the program were interviewed between September and November 2021. Pattern-finding and pattern-matching were used to analyze the data.
Results: The pattern-finding analysis identified nine issues, which were: the background and context of the program; the program’s unique role, structure, operation, and evaluation; different views on partner roles and program outcomes; and issues with program sustainability. The community participation program was further analyzed as a collaboration project using pattern-matching, which recommended paying attention to the specific roles anticipated and opportunities available for the community leaders trained in the program. Additionally, it emphasized the importance of shared goals among the program participants in different sectors and roles.
Conclusion: Approaching public health projects for community participation from the perspective of collaboration and building case studies of such approaches will enhance both research and practice of community health promotion.
