The major limitation for community participation/involvement in health promotion in any community level is life style and time factors. Though health promotion is a very important thing in our lives, many people are generally does not take special interest because they have to put some of their personal time. It will be very good if people of different sectors work combine to promote health. For example conducting community meetings and health campaigns will bring more awareness regarding the preventive measures and symptoms of some commonly occurring or seasonal diseases. Preventive measure greatly decreases the occurrence of seasonal diseases.

Organizing the community health fair is aa very good idea to spread the knowledge about a particular health task for more number of people within a short duration of time. However, appropriate organization, time planning and budget must be planned for conducting the successful health fairs. People must be encouraged to participate in the health fair by spreading the news through meetings or pamphlets.

Voluntary participation in knowing about health issues and bringing awareness among people will be very helpful to control some diseases, for example infectious diseases. Parents can teach their children and illiterates regarding the health issues to promote the overall health of the community.
