Core values of community action (not example)

Enjoying wealth isn't a form of social justice; rather practiced equal treatment, social justice as a balance between individual and community, and giving alms for good practices.

Gender equality problem (not example)

Equal voting rights and opportunities for both men and women aren't problems; unequal power distribution in marriages, higher opportunities for men in society, and past societal imbalances are issues.

Human rights related to participation

Political rights (assembly, petition, suffrage, participation) are involved, not social or natural rights

Non-example of participatory development

Working in unfair conditions doesn't represent participatory development. Instead, it's about engaging marginalized groups in beneficial programs.
