Empowerment is defined by the Cornell Empowerment Group (1989) as the “intentional ongoing process centered in the local community, involving mutual respect, critical reflection, caring, and group participation, through which people lacking an equal share of all used resources gain greater access to and control over those resources” (as cited in Perkins, Douglas, Zimmerman,…
